Notes:
The traditional method of analyzing solution structuring properties of solutes using atom-atom radial distribution functions (rdfs) can give rise to misleading interpretations when the volume occupied by the solute is ignored. It is shown by using the examples of O(4) in α- and β-D-allose that a more reliable interpretation of rdfs can be obtained by normalising the rdf using the available volume, rather than the traditional volume of a spherical shell. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
