Abstract

The title compound, 3C(7)H(9)ClO(3)·CHCl(3), crystallizes with mol-ecules of 3-exo-chloro-8-oxabicyclo-[3.2.1]oct-6-ene-2,4-diol (A) and chloro-form in a 3:1 ratio, in the space group R3m. Mol-ecules of A straddle a crystallographic mirror plane, whereas the chloro-form mol-ecules (C and H atoms) lie additionally on the threefold axis. The mol-ecules of A are linked into right- and left-helical chains by means of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, thus forming columns running along the c axis. Six inter-penetrated columns form a channel in which the solvent mol-ecules (chloro-form) are located.
