Weak becomes strong: remarkable strength of C–H⋯π hydrogen bond in the presence of O–H⋯O hydrogen bonds in the crystal stabilization

Abstract

We report crystallographic evidence for the significance of C–H⋯π hydrogen bonds in the crystal stabilization of 1,4-di-O-benzoyl-myo-inositol. The strength of this otherwise weak hydrogen bond matches with the strength of O–H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
