The Crystal and Molecular Structures of Neo-inositol and Two Forms of Scyllo-inositol

Neo-inositol 및 Scyllo-inositol의 結晶 및 分子 構造

Nea-inositol is triclinic P???, with a =4.799(1), b=6.520(1), c=6.505(1) Å, α=70.61(1), β=69.41(1), γ=73.66(1)°, Z=1, molecular symmetry ???. Scyllo-inositol, from A, is monoclinic, P2₂/c, with a=5.089(1), c=11.948(2)Å, β=116.98(2)°, Z=2, molecular symmetry ???. Form B is triclinic, P???, with a=6.725(1), b=6.797(1), c=8.635(2)° Å, α=95.45(2), β=99.49(2), γ=99.19(2)°, Z=2, molecular symmetry ???. This crystal structure is pseudo-monoclinic, having two centrosymmetrical molecules with the almost identical conformation and orientation in the crystal lattice. The molecules have the expected chair conformations with puckering parameters of Q=0.609(2)Å for n대, 0.581(2)Å for Scyllo-A, and 0.566(2) Å for Scyllo-B. The bond lengths and angles are normal, C-C, 1.505 to 1.531 8A, C-O, 1.415 to 1.440 Å, C-C-C, 108.2 to 112.9°. The molecules are linked by systems of finite and infinite chains of hydrogen bonds.
