The title compound, 3
β-hydroxy-17-oximinoandrost-5-ene monohydrate, C
19H
29NO
2·H
2O, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group
P2
1 with unit-cell parameters:
a = 11.632(3)Å,
b = 6.255(2)Å,
c = 12.155(3)Å,
β = 100.488(4)°,
Z = 2. The structure was refined to a final
R-value of 0.0549 for 3421 observed reflections. Rings A and C of the compound are in a
chair conformation whereas ring B is in a
half-chair conformation. Ring D is intermediate between a
half chair and an
envelope conformation. The A/B ring junction is quasi-
trans, while ring junctions B/C and C/D are
trans fused about the C8-C9 and C13-C14 bonds, respectively. The twist along the length of the steroid nucleus is -12.5°. O-H…O hydrogen bonds connect the steroid molecules
via water solvent, forming dimers. Further, O-H…O intermolecular hydrogen bonds link the dimers to form dimer chains. The dimer chains are packed together to form layers.
