Crystal structure of (−)-(S)-4-[(2S,3S,4S,Z)-3-hydroxy-4-methyl­hept-5-en-2-yl]-1,3-dioxolan-2-one

The title compound, C(11)H(18)O(4), consists of an anti,anti,anti-stereo­tetrad with a 1,2-carbonate and an alkene motif. The mol­ecule displays a common zigzag conformation. The five-membered ring has a twisted conformation on the C—C bond. In the crystal, a strong inter­molecular hydrogen bond between the hy­droxy group and the carboxyl­ate moiety from an adjacent mol­ecule forms chains propagating along the b-axis direction. The absolute structure of the mol­ecule in the crystal was determined by resonant scattering [Flack parameter = 0.05 (6)].
