Abstract: | A MET-OH derivative, MET-OTs 1, was designed, prepared and structurally charac- terized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. X-ray structure analysis reveals that 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/c, with a = 16.1178(14), b = 7.5473(6), c = 13.4161(11) (A), V = 1520.3(2) (A)3, β = 111.3210(10)o, Z = 4, Dc = 1.421 g/cm3 and F(000) = 680. |
