The molecule is extended in the crystal; there is a small twist, -13.1 (2)^o, about the amide-like C--N bond joining the oxazolidinone ring to the carbonyl group. The configurations at the two optical centers in the cyclohexene ring confirm the anticipated stereospecificity of the Diels-Alder cycloaddition synthesis.en-USJournal Article10.1107/S0108270192000738
