The crystal structure of the γ‐lactone of racemic 7‐oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane‐5‐ exo ‐iodo‐6‐ endo ‐hydroxy‐2‐ endo ‐carboxylic acid has confirmed the position of the lactone bridge as 2–6 and the exo ‐iodo substituent configuration as previously proposed from chemical and 13 C NMR evidence. The iodo substituent is also involved in a short non‐bonding intermolecular interaction [I⋯O 3.289 (5) Å] with the non‐bridging lactone oxygen giving polymeric chains which link weakly hydrogen‐bonded (C—H⋯O) centrosymmetric dimer units.
