Spiroketals

Heterocyclic Structure in Organic Chemistry

In chemistry, Spiroketals are structural motifs composed of two heterocycles sharing one central carbon which makes them a subclass of spiro compound. Their structural specificity lays on the presence of one oxygen atom in each ring, in alpha of the spiro carbon. Although there are no rules about the size of each ring, the most widely encountered spiroketal are composed of five and six membered rings.
