The conformational preferences and self-association modes of the two diastereomeric N-acetyl, methylamides of 3-hydroxy, 4-amino, 6-methylheptanoic acid (statine) with (R, S) and (S, S) configurations at the 3-hydroxy and 4-amino carbons, respectively, have been determined in solution as well as in the solid state by infrared absorption, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance, and X-ray diffraction. Conformational energy computations have also been performed in parallel. In the crystal state, the change in chirality of the hydroxyl group induces different intermolecular H-bonding schemes in the (R, S) isomer compared to the two structurally distinct molecules in the asymmetric unit of the (S, S) isomer. Different propensities to self-aggregate are seen in solvents of low polarity. In solvents of high polarity, however, the molecules of both isomers are largely solvated, while still keeping some local conformational restriction. Conformational energy computations indicate that in vacuo the two diastereomers exhibit different flexibility, and a preferred conformation with a different type of intramolecular H-bond.
