3-Methyl-2,4-dioxabicyclo [3.3.1] nonane and 7-hydroxy-3-methyl-2, 4-dioxabicyclo [3.3.1] nonane were synthesized by the method of Croxall, Glavis and Neher, although in low yields. The structure of both compounds was proven by analytical methods and analysis of their spectral properties. Tentative configuration of C-3 in both compounds was assigned on the assumption that the ring closing step is kinetically controlled. Both configurations were shown to be present at C-7 in 7-hydroxy-3-methyl-2, 4-dioxabicyclo [3.3.1] nonane. The conformation of both compounds was tentatively assigned to the chair-boat form.
