We have investigated the conformational preferences of a series of cyclitol derivatives, namely mono- and diesters of 1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-myo-inositol and 1,2:5,6-di-O-cyclohexylidene-myo-inositol, in both solid and solution states. The solid-state conformations were determined by
We show that the CH···O hydrogen bond can be opportunistic to differentially dictate the conformation of cyclitols in solution and solid states. While several intermolecular CH···O stabilize the chair-conformation in the solid, single intramolecular CH···O stabilizes an otherwise unfavorable
