✦ Synopsis
A low-temperature redetermination of metaldehyde (systematic name: 2,4,6,8-tetramethyl-1,3,5,7-tetroxocane), (CH 3 -CHO) 4 or C 8 H 16 O 4 , is reported, 69 years after the original determination [Pauling & Carpenter (1936). J. Am. Chem. Soc. 58, 1274Soc. 58, -1278]]. Metaldehyde crystallizes in the space group I4. The asymmetric unit contains one quarter of a molecule and the complete molecule is generated by the fourfold rotation axis.
