1,2,3,4,5,6-Hexa-O-acetyl-scyllo-inositol

The title molecule, C18H24O12, has crystallographic 2/m symmetry with two acetate group located on a mirror plane. The H—Csp3—O—Csp2 torsion angles characterizing orientation of the acetyl groups with respect to the cyclohexane ring are 0.0, 23.9 and 23.9°. The cyclohexane ring is in a chair conformation with all substituents in equatorial positions. In the crystal, molecules are connected through C—H...O hydrogen bonds into a chain extending along the c axis.
