In the title molecule, C 22 H 29 ClO 4 , all bond lengths and angles show normal values. Rings A and C have slightly distorted chair conformations, while rings B and D show envelope conformations. Weak intermolecular C-HÁ Á ÁO hydrogen bonds link the molecules into chains running along the b axis.
The ring conformation of the title compound, C 19 H 30 O 3 , is similar to that of the 5-epimer except for the cis A/B ring junction. Ring D adopts a 13,14-half chair conformation. The molecules are linked together by a two-dimensional network of hydrogen bonds involving the carbonyl and hydroxyl gr
