Abstract

The title compound, C(27)H(29)NO(11), is a product of the tandem 'domino' Diels-Alder reaction. The mol-ecule comprises a fused hexa-cyclic system containing four five-membered rings (two dihydro-furan and two tetra-hydro-furan) in the usual envelope conformations and two six-membered rings (tetra-hydro-pyridinone and piperidine) adopting slightly flattened boat and chair conformations, respectively. The dispositions of the carboxyl-ate substituents relative to each other are determined by both steric reasons and inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonding and attractive anti-parallel C=O⋯C=O inter-actions [C⋯O = 2.995 (2) Å].
