Abstract
Eplerenone [systematic name: 7α-(methoxycarbonyl)-3-oxo-9α,11-epoxy-17α-pregn-4-ene-21,17-carbolactone], an aldosterone receptor antagonist, crystallizes from ethanol as a monosolvate, C24H30O6·C2H6O. The eplerenone molecule has two five-membered rings, three six-membered rings and one three-membered ring. Both five-membered rings display envelope conformations, while the three six-membered rings assume envelope (cyclohexene), half-chair (cyclohexane sharing one edge with epoxy) and chair (other cyclohexane) conformations. The solvent molecule is disordered equally over two sites. It is linked to the eplerenone molecule by hydrogen bonds.
