In the 5H14NO4P·H2O, the zwitterionic phosphocholine molecules are connected by an O—H⋯O hydrogen bond between the phosphate groups, forming a zigzag chain along the b-axis direction. The chains are further connected through O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving water molecules, forming a layer parallel to (101). Three and one C—H⋯O interactions are also observed in the layer and between the layers, respectively. The conformation of the N—C—C—O backbone is gauche with a torsion angle of −75.8 (2)°

Phosphorylcholine calcium chloride tetrahydrate was dissolved in water. The aqueous solution was treated on an
resin (Amberlite IRN77) and a resin (TULSION-93). The solvent evaporated and the product was dried in vacuo. White powder was crystallized from a methanol solution. Acetonitrile was used as the antisolvent. This crystallization was repeated twice. Final purification was achieved by recrystallization from a saturated aqueous solution at room temperature for X-ray measurements.The title compound was identified using 1H NMR, electrospray δ, p.p.m.): 3.214(s, 9H), 3.653(t, 2H), 4.286(m, 2H), HRMS(ESI) (m/z) calcd for C5H14NO4P [M+H]+ 184.0739, found 184.0849.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Phosphocholine is similar to head groups of the phospholipid which is a major component of cell membranes. In past study, crystal structures of the compounds which have the phospholipid head group, such as 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine dihydrate (Pearson & Pascher, 1979), choline phosphate calcium chloride tetrahydrate (McAlister et al., 1979) and choline dihydrogen phosphate (Fujita et al., 2009), were observed. We report herein the crystal structure of phosphocholine monohydrate.
The molecular structures of the title compound are shown in Fig. 1. The phosphate groups form the hydrogen bonds of O2···H—O4 linked to two neighboring phosphate groups (Fig. 2). These hydrogen bonds create a hydrogen bonding chain of phosphate groups along the b axis. In addition, phosphate groups are connected to the other neighboring phosphate group via two hydrogen bonds of O3···H—O5, with two water molecules (Fig. 3). Due to these hydrogen bonding network, molecules are arranged in layers parallel to the (101) plane. Four C—H···O interactions also occur in these layered structure (Table 1).
