Capturing a metastable chiral polymorph of an achiral molecule—hexa-O-benzoyl-myo-inositol

Abstract

myo-Inositol hexabenzoate having meso configuration produces chiral polymorph (form I) when crystallized rapidly but yields achiral polymorph (form II) when allowed to crystallize slowly; in the mother liquor form I slowly but completely disappears to give form II.
