Figure 2
The molecular packing of (V), showing the tetrahedral coordination of the difluorodiol molecules around the solvent water molecules. The disorder in the positions of the water H atoms and the hydroxy groups can be modelled as the statistical average of O—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding modes (a) and (b). Non-interacting H atoms have been removed for clarity. Dotted lines indicate O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. (In the electronic version of the paper, difluorodiol molecules A and B are shown in blue and orange, respectively.) (Symmetry codes as in Table 1.) |
