Abstract

The title compounds, C₁₈H₂₁NO and C₁₈H₂₁NS, in their enantiomerically pure forms are isostructural with the enantiomerically pure 4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2,2,4-trimethylchroman and 4-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-2,2,4-trimethylchroman analogues and form extended linear chains via N-H···O or N-H···S hydrogen bonding along the [100] direction. The absolute configuration for both compounds was determined by anomalous dispersion methods with reference to both the Flack parameter and, for the light-atom compound, Bayesian statistics on Bijvoet differences.
