`Fig. 2 Reaction pathway for novel oxycarbonyl rearrangement
`
`orientation of nucleophilic attack of the flee nitrogen. In order
`to determine this orientation, we attempted an MNDO
`conformational analysis. In the case of attack at the c~-
`carbonyl carbon, a chair-like conformer (A), containing the
`bulky isopropyl moiety (Pri) in a pseudoequatorial orienta-
`tion, is the most favoured conformation and leads to the
`R-ester, In the case of attack at the ~-carbonyl carbon, a
`chair-like conformer (B) containing Pri in a pscudoaxial
`orientation is the preferred one and leads to the S-ester. Their
`MNDO-ealeulated optimized conformations and heats of
`formation are shown in Fig. 3 (a) and (b). As a result, A is the
`most favoured conformation, and the energy difference
`between A and B was calculated to be 0.942 kcal reel-t (1 cal
`= 4.184 J). This energy difference corresponds well with the
`stereoselectivity (ca. 80% at room temp.) in this reaction.
`We thank Dr Akito Tanaka for conformational analyses by
`the MNDO method and Dr Toshiji Tada for the single crystal
`analyses.

`
`The proportion of non-ionic, metal free, organic compounds that crystallise as hydrates increases, within the class,
`with an increase in the number of hydrogen-bond accepter groups with respect to the donor groups.
`
`The inclusion of water within organic crystals is a matter of
`both fundamental and practical importance and is quite unlike
`the inclusion of other solvents of crystallisation. Because of its
`small size and excellent hydrogen bonding ability, water is
`almost never an innocuous bystander in an organic crystal
`
`structure. With the recent impetus in crystal engineering,1
`there has been much interest in the prediction of crystal
`packing2-4 and hydrogen bond patternss using simple mol-
`ecular descriptors. Such efforts have been greatly facilitated
`by the existence of machine-readable databases such as the

`Fig. 1 Hydrogen bonding schemes for hydrated acid 1 (a) and
`anhydrous acids 2, 3 and 4 (b). In acid 1, the water molecules are also
`hydrogen bonded to nitro groups which are not shown here.
`
`Cambridgc Structural Database (CSD).6"Accordingly, this
`communication deals with the prediction of the likelihood of
`an organic molecule to crystallise as a hydrate.
`Water is incorporated into organic crystals far more
`frequently than other conrmon solvents. Of the 69 691 entries
`in the 1988 (3.1) version of the CSD, 33 886 do not contain any
`metal atom and of these, 3696 are solvates. It is appropriate to
`consider only those entries without metal atoms since water
`enters the coordination sphere of transition metal ions so
`readily. Even when these ’pure’ organics are surveyed, the
`number of entries having water of crystallisation is far in
`excess of the number having other solvents. The following
`statistics were obtained: water (2566); methanol (306); diethyl
`ether (175); benzene (173); ethanol (168); acetone (108);
`chloroform (102); others (98). These figures are striking
`because water is not a particul..arly good solvent for organic
`compounds and also because of the possibly comparable
`frequencies with which any of the above common solvents
`were used for crystallisation.
`This study was prompted by the observation that 3,5-
`dinitrosalicylic acid 1 crystallises as a monohydrate while the
`related compounds salicylic acid 2, 5-nitrosalicylic acid 3 and
`3-amino-5-nitrosalicylic acid 4 form anhydrous crystals.7 In all
`four structures, the phenolic hydroxy group is intramol-
`ocularly hydrogen bonded to the carbonyl oxygcn of the
`carboxy group and does not seem to play any differentiating
`role. The crystal structure of 1 is unusual in that, unlike 2, 3
`and 4, the molecules do not form centrosymmetric hydrogen
`bonded dimers but rather form hydrogen bonds along a
`catemer in which water molecules connect carbonyl and
`carboxy oxygen atoms (Fig. 1). These water molecules act in
`effect as hydrogen bond donors to the former (O . . , O 2.92
`A_) and as hydrogen bond acceptors from the latter (O . . . O
`2.52 A). Normally the catemer motif is not accessible to
`aromatic carboxylic acids for steric reasons,s In the structure
`of 1, however, water molecules acts as spacers so that the
`aromatic rings move sufficiently apart to avoid repulsive
`contacts with the catemer itself, Now, the interesting question
`is why this unusual structure is adopted at all. A possible
`rationale is obtained by considering that the number of
`hydrogen bond donors (two) and acceptors (seven) in acid 1 is
`quite unbalanced, It has been stated that all good proton
`donors and acceptors are used in hydrogen bonding.S If this is
`the case, three-centre interactions9 would appear inevitable in
`order that the maximum number of acceptors be included in
`the hydrogen bonding scheme. However, an alternative
`possibility to redress the donor : acceptor imbalance is by the

`0.2

`
`inclusion of one or more water molecules. In the present case.,
`the 2:7 donor:acceptor ratio becomes a 4:8 ratio in the
`monohydrate. This possibility is an attractive one since
`stronger hydrogen bonds would be formed; this is so because
`not as many of them need be of the three-centre type.
`The next step in the analysis was to extend the argument
`with the CSD. From the 2566 hydrates mentioned above, salts
`and cyclodextrins were excluded. It is not surprising that
`charged species should crystallise as hydrates, while it may be
`easy for water molecules to _enter the large cavities of the
`cyclodextrins. Since, at this stage, the structures had to be
`examined manually (and individually) in order that the
`number of hydrogen bond donors and acceptors in the
`molecular structure be counted, a smaller group of 411
`structures was selected. To avoid any bias the structures were
`chosen according to journal.~"
`The following groups were defined as proton donors (d): 1°
`(primary) amine (2 donors); 2° amine (1); 1° amide (2); 2°
`amide (1); imine (!); alcohol, phenol, carboxylic acid,
`sulphonic acid (1). The following were defined as proton
`acceptors (a): N in amine, amide, imine (1); O in hydroxy and
`carboxy (1); sp30 in ethers and esters (1); sp20 in carbonyl
`compounds (1); O in nitro (2); N in nitrile and isonitrile (1); F
`in a C-F bond was not included as a proton acceptor.
`B arring a single structure,~0 all the selected hydrates contain
`grodps capable of participating in hydrogen bonding. Fig. 2 is
`a histogram of the uumber of structures as a function of the
`donor : acceptor ratio (d/a). Thcrc arc hardly any structures
`where d/a is greater than unity but this is not surprising; fi’om
`the definitions of donor and acceptor used here, only a few
`types of compounds such as 1° amines and some of their
`derivatives would be expected to have d > a. The vast majority
`of hydrogen bonded compounds (hydrated or otherwise)
`would probably have d/a ratios in the range 0.5-3_.0. What is
`significant, however, is that 65% of the hydrated structures
`have d/a <0.5 with 16% of them having d/a <0,1. In many of
`these hydrates therefore, the number of hydrogen bond donor
`groups is far less than the number of acceptors, There are a
`number of reasons why such a correlation should be indistinct:
`the existence of three-centre bonds; the possibility of water
`hydrogen bonding to itself rather than to the organic
`compound and water performing a space-filling role within the
`lattice of an awkwardly-shaped molecule. Indeed all these
`situations were encountered among the 400-odd structures
`
`]" Structures were selected if they appeared in any of the following
`journals: J, Chem. Soc. (all sections); Ac~a Chem. Scan&; Acta
`Crys~allogr, (prior ~o bifurcation); Angew. Chem.; Bull. Chem. Soc.

`examined and water seems to occur in organic cyrstals in many
`ways.11.12 Other factors are probably also important: several
`categories of compounds containing only acceptor groups
`(nitrohydrocarbons, ethers, esters) perhaps do not crystallise
`as hydrates because o[ their very low water solubility. What is
`amazing is that in spite of these reasonable alternative
`possibilities, the correlation is as pronounced as is observed
`here.
`I thank G. Sirisha for enumerating the donor and acceptor
`groups [or the compounds in this study.

`
`A short and, practical synthesis of myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakis(phosphate) and myo-inositol 1,4,5-tris(phosphatel has
`been achieved by direct benzoylation of myo-inositol, enantioselective tartaroylation and removal of acy protecting
`groups with Grignard reagents,
`
`Recently, there have been many reports~ on the synthesis of
`rnyo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakis(phosphate) (IPa, 1) and rnyo-
`inositol 1,4,5-tris(phosphate) (IP~, 2), which are metabolites
`in the phosphoinositide cycle concerning a new intracellular
`signal transduction system.a Chemical synthesis of racemic IP~
`has been achieved in six or seven steps by several groups,
`whereas the synthesis of optically active IP4 took 10 to 13
`steps. This difference is attributed partly to the tedious
`derivatisation steps needed to form diastereoisomers, their
`separation, and removal of the chiral auxiliary. These facts
`have prevented a practical synthesis of optically acuve IPa.
`Recently, we have found an efficient method for obtaining
`optically active inositol derivatives based on an enantioselec-
`tive acylation using a tartaric acid monoester3 instead of
`optical resolution. Coupling this methodology with a straight-
`forward protection of the starting rnyo-inositol.4 a short and
`practical synthesis of IPa has now bccn found. Optically active
`IP3 has been also prepared concisely from the same synthetic
`intermediate. In this communication, these results are de-
`scribed.
