Abstract
Solution and solid-state structural data are presented for a discrete complex of phenacyl alcohol with calcium chloride, [(C6H5COCH2OH)2Ca(H 2O)3]2+.2Cl-.H2O, in which phenacyl alcohol serves as a bidentate liga nd, with coordination of calcium to both the carbonyl oxygen and the h ydroxyl group. This constitutes the first structural characterization of a calcium complex with the important pharmacophoric alpha-hydroxy k etone functionality.
