Popis: The conformations of (Z)- and (E)-5-oxo-B-nor-5,10-secocholest-1(10)-en-3 beta-yl acetates (2 and 3, resp.) were examined by a combination of X-ray crystallographic analysis and NMR spectroscopy, with emphasis on the geometry of the cyclononenone moiety. The H-1- and C-13-NMR spectra showed that the unsaturated nine-membered ring of (E)-isomer 3 in C6D6 and (D-6)acetone solution exists in a sole conformation of type B-1, which is similar to its solid-state conformation. The (Z)-isomer 2 in C6D6 CDCl3, and (D-6)acetone solution. however, exists in two conformational forms of different families, with different orientation of the carbonyl group, the predominant form (85%) corresponding to the conformation of type A, and the minor (15%) to the conformation A(2) present also in the crystalline state. In this solid-state conformations of the nine-membered ring of both compounds, the 19-Me and 5-oxo groups are 'beta'-oriented. The NMR analysis suggests that the nine-membered ring of 4 has a conformation of type C-1 in CDCl3 solution.
