Non-superimposable mirror image crystals of both enantiomers (S/R) of cyclic gamma-alkenyl alcohol (2) have been recognized and remarkably identified by the naked eye. More interestingly, both crystals are an outcome of most astonishingly H-bond and intermolecular sigma/pi-pi interactions. They accounted for the relatively rare and less predictable spontaneous resolution with optical purity >99% ee from the racemic mixture. The chiral discrimination mechanism of this spontaneous resolution has also been proposed. (c) 2013 Fu-Xue Chen. Published by Elsevier B.V. on behalf of Chinese Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
