Racemic 2,4-di-O-acyl-myoinosityl 1,3,5-orthoesters undergo transesterification catalyzed by sodium carbonate with varying ease of reaction in the solid state; reactions in solution and melt do not show such varied differences. An interesting crystal of a 1:1 molecular complex of highly reactive racemic 2,4-di-O-benzoyl-myo-inosityl 1,3,5-orthoformate and its orthoacetate analogue exhibited better reactivity than the latter component alone. Single-crystal X-ray structures of the reactants have been correlated with the observed differences in the acyl-transfer efficiencies in the solid state. Although each of the derivatives helically self-assembles around the crystallographic 2(1) axis linked through O-(HO)-O-... hydrogen bonding, the pre-organization of the reactive groups (C=O [El] and OH [Nu]), C-(HO)-O-... and the C=H(...)pi interactions are significantly more favourable for the reactive derivatives than the less reactive ones. Bond-length distributions also showed differences; the O-C bond of the axial benzoyl group, which gets cleaved during the reaction, is longer (1.345-1.361 angstrom) relative to the chemically equivalent O-C bond of the equatorial benzoyl group (1.316-1.344 angstrom) in the reactive derivatives. These bond-length differences are not significant in the less reactive derivatives. The overall molecular organization is different too; the strikingly discrete helices, which may be viewed as {\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}reaction tunnels{\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} and are held by interhelical interactions, are clearly evident in the reactive derivatives in comparison with the less reactive ones.

A general method for the completely regioselective protection of the three secondary hydroxyl groups of orthoester derivatives of myo-mositol, utilizing the subtle differences in reactivity exhibited by its alkali metal alkoxides due to differences in their ability to form chelates, is described. This method provides convenient access to orthogonally protected myo-inositol derivatives. A comparison of the methylation of racemic 4-0-trityl-myo-inositol 1,3,5-orthoformate in the presence of sodium or lithium ions showed that stabilization of the C4-alkoxide by chelation with lithium overrides steric hindrance offered by the C6-axial substituent in deciding the regioselectivity during the nucleophilic O-substitution.

myo-Inositol 1,3,5-orthobenzoate exhibits polymorphic behavior depending upon the solvent and time allowed for crystallization. Long plates (form I, monoclinic P2(1)/n) are produced on crystallization from methanol, while crystallization from ethyl acetate mostly yielded squarish plates (form II, monoclinic P2(1)/c). The latter could also be obtained by achieving rapid nucleation from a supersaturated solution of methanol. Remarkably, the overall conformation of the individual molecules is very similar in both polymorphs, although free rotations were possible for the phenyl ring and for the three O-H groups. O-H center dot center dot center dot O linked one-dimensional isostructural molecular strings in the two forms weave differently by weak intermolecular interactions to produce the dimorphs.

In all the crystals in the present study except the solvent-free form, the S=O bond points almost perpendicularly to the Csp2 atom of the C=O group. This was also the most frequently observed geometrical approach in CSD analysis. The solvent-free form shows dimer formation via C-H\•\•\• O interaction, which has longer S=O\•\•\• C=O contacts.

myo-Inositol derived crown-4-ethers in which two of the oxygen atoms in the crown ether moiety have different relative orientations were prepared. Metal picrate binding studies revealed that the crown ether having 1,3-diaxial orientation shows the highest selectivity for binding to lithium although the crown ether having 1,2-diequatorial orientation exhibited the highest binding constant for lithium picrate. These results suggest that relative binding affinity of metal ions to crown ethers can be tuned by varying the relative orientation of crown ether oxygen atoms. The relevance of these results to the previously observed regioselectivity during the O-substitution of myo-inositol orthoesters is discussed. (c) 2606 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
