According to recent research published in the journal Acta Crystallographica Section E - Structure Reports Online, "The title compound, C26H37NO5, which was synthesized from monoethanolamine and maleopimaric acid, consists of two fused and unbridged cyclohexane rings. They form a trans ring junction with a chair conformation."
"The two methyl groups are in axial positions. In the crystal, intermolecular O-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds link adjacent molecules into a layer structure," wrote X. Xu and colleagues.
The researchers concluded: "Two C-H center dot center dot center dot O interactions are also present."
