Abstract The crystal structure of the derivative of tetrahydronaphthalene with substituent epoxy, hydroxyl, and methyl groups in the more saturated ring (r-1-hydroxy-t-2-methyl-t,t-3,4-epoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene) has been determined. The hydroxyl and methyl groups are both found to beequatorial. The crystal structure is characterized by chains of molecules linked by O-H ⋯ O hydrogen bonds involving the hydroxyl groups; these hydrogen bonds lie approximately parallel to theb axis. The conformations of the epoxide-bearing rings in various hydroxy epoxides are compared and shown to be similar.
