Abstract
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 boat-conformation in solutions analogous to the boat-conformation of cis-1,4-cyclohexanediols by OH···O bonds.
