[Graphics]The open-ended hollow tubular structure formed by inclusion of water molecules in the packing of the hydroxyl acid 1 (R-1 = CH2OH, R-2 = ethyl groups) led to the synthesis and structural study of their unsaturated analogues. In this article we report on a general and practical large-scale synthesis of hydroxyl acids that possess alkenyl and alkynyl appendages. Substitution of the ethyl groups in I with unsaturated two-carbon appendages has a different effect on the molecular structure and on the hydrogen-bonding pattern. No variation has been induced by Substitution of only one ethyl group with a vinyl one, although the substitution of both ethyl groups with vinyl or acetylene appendages has the greatest effect on the molecular structure and results in different hydrogen-bonding motifs.
