Distances between oxygen atom of 2-OH and three oxygen atoms of 3- in Ins(1,3,4) or Ins(1,3,4,5).
Distances between oxygen atom of 6-OH and three oxygen atoms of 5- in Ins(1,4,5) or Ins(1,3,4,5).
There is no result for O2- distances in Ins(1,4,5) and O6- distance in Ins(1,3,4), because they do not contain 3- and 5- groups, respectively.
The energy difference is calculated only for Ins(1,3,4) and Ins(1,4,5), because they belong to the same molecule but different conformations.
