3-Hydroxy-2-[(2-hydroxy-4,4-dimethyl-6-oxocyclohex-1-en-1-yl)(thiophen-3-yl)methyl]-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-one.

ABSTRACT

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(21)H(26)O(4)S, consists of two independent mol-ecules. In both mol-ecules, intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds stabilize the mol-ecular structure. In the crystal, each mol-ecule and its symmetry-related mol-ecule by twofold rotation form a dimer through a pair of inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. In one of the mol-ecules, the thio-phene group is disordered over two sets of sites with occupancies of 0.735 (3) and 0.265 (3).
