The molecular structure of 4-amino 1-hydroxy butylidene-1 bisphosphonic acid (AHBBPA); an uncommon anhydrous hydroxybisphosphonic acid

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/10426509708031585

The molecular structure of an anhydrous hydroxybisphosphonic acid was determined by X-ray diffraction techniques and compared to the corresponding hydrated crystalline form. The hydrogen bond network and intermolecular interactions show that the polar bisphosphonic group undergoes a rotation to accomodate a different distribution in the hydrophobic/polar zones observed in the crystal packing, while the rest of the amino side chain connected to the functional carbon atom has identical conformation.
