Diosgenin-3,6-dione: second polymorph in space group P212121
The title steroid, [(25R)-spirost-4-en-3,6-dione, C27H38O4], is obtained by oxidation of diosgenin, using the Jones reagent (CrO3/H2SO4). The crystal structure was previously reported in space group P212121, but nonetheless with the wrong absolute configuration and omitting positions for H atoms [Ra...
