(1-Oxo-2,6,7-trioxa-1-phosphabicyclo-[2.2.2]octan-4-yl)methyl 4-methyl-benzene-sulfonate
Abstract:
In the title compound, C(12)H(15)O(7)PS, the P atom has a distorted tetra-hedral environment. The P-O-C-C torsion angles deviate significantly from zero [average = 12.0 (3)°], indicating that the bicyclic OP(OCH(2))(3)C cage is strained. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯O inter-actions consolidate the packing.

For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
