(-)-epi-Inosose, (I), crystallized in the monoclinic space group P2(1), with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit [Hosomi et al. (2000). Acta Cryst. C56, e584-e585]. On the other hand, (2RS,3SR,5SR,6SR)epi-inosose, C6H10O6, (II), crystallized in the orthorhombic space group Pca2(1). Interestingly, the conformation of the molecules in the two structures is nearly the same, the only difference being the orientation of the C-3 and C-4 hydroxy H atoms. As a result, the molecular organization achieved mainly through strong O-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonding in the racemic and homochiral lattices is similar. The compound also follows Wallach's rule, in that the racemic crystals are denser than the optically active form.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0.62</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
