Abstract

The title compound, C23H26O6S2 was synthesized by esterification of tri-cyclo-[3.3.1.0(3,7)]nonane-3,7-diol with p-toluene-sulfonyl chloride. The mol-ecule has symmetry 2 and is situated on site 4e. The C-C bond length between the quartenary C atoms is 1.598 (2) Å, which is considerably longer than other C-C bonds in the mol-ecule. There are C-H⋯O inter-actions present in the structure. As a consequence, the packing of the molecule (viewed along [100]) appears as chains where the molecules run parallel, but each chain has the opposite direction to the neighboring ones.
