    Abstract

    The title compound, 3-{2-[decahydro-6-hydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)-5,8a- dimethyl-2-methylene-1-napthalenyl]ethylidene}dihydro-4-acetoxy-2(3H)-furanone, C 22H 32O 6, was synthesised from andrographolide. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic system with a = 7.4219(12), b = 11.8411(10), c = 23.777(4) Å in space group P2 12 12 1. While the stereochemical relation between rings is slightly changed from the starting material, acetylation of the hydroxyfuranone moiety completely abolishes O - H⋯O hydrogen bonding there, leaving a C - H⋯O interaction. The hydrogen-bonded chains at the opposite end of the andrographolide molecule persist but reverse direction.
