Crystal structure of cholesteryl decanoate.

Cholesteryl decanoate (C37H64O2) is monoclinic, space group P2I, with cell dimensions a = 12.931 (6), b = 9.066 (2), c = 30.22 (1) A, beta = 91.14 (4) degrees, and Z = 4. The atomic coordinates from cholesteryl laurate were used in an initial trial structure which was refined by block diagonal least...

description Cholesteryl decanoate (C37H64O2) is monoclinic, space group P2I, with cell dimensions a = 12.931 (6), b = 9.066 (2), c = 30.22 (1) A, beta = 91.14 (4) degrees, and Z = 4. The atomic coordinates from cholesteryl laurate were used in an initial trial structure which was refined by block diagonal least-squares methods with 1846 observed X-ray reflections (R = 0.129). Molecules A and B have almost fully extended conformations, except at the ester bonds and towards the end of the decanoate B chain. The molecules are arranged in antiparallel array forming monolayers of thickness d001 = 30.22 A, with the molecular long axis making an angle of about 67 degrees with the layer interface. The crystal structure is very similar to that of cholesteryl nonanoate and cholesteryl laurate.
