The previously unknown crystal structure of the local anaesthetic tetracaine hydrochloride (C15H25N2O2+Cl−) has been solved from synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data using a direct-space global optimisation method in which position and conformation structural model is adjusted. C15H25N2O2+ moiety chloride counterion were treated as independent units during solution process. This complex despite nine torsional degrees freedom cation. A restrained Rietveld refinement initial gives an...
Optical microscopy, crystal growth kinetics and induction time measurements have been utilised to characterise the influence of n-alkanoic acids on crystallisation adipic acid from aqueous solution. The kinetic morphological data are consistent with a structural model in which added occupy lattice sites at surfaces. This is confirmed by observed incorporations these molecules detectable levels harvested crystals.

The phase characterisation and morphologies of forms I II terephthalic acid are presented. structural nature the → polymorphic transition has been explored form shown to be more stable at room temperature pressure. A new mechanism is proposed for apparent stability multiply twinned samples I.
The influence of impurities on the morphology ε-caprolactam crystals was examined in terms molecular recognition processes at crystal/solution interface. Summing intermolecular interactions, using atom−atom approximation together with DREIDING force field provided a convergence lattice energy summation good correlation to thermodynamic data.

There have been many previous studies of the IV-III phase transition in ammonium nitrate and water is known to play a mechanistic role. This work examines effect other solvents additives on kinetics single crystals combines these data with structural information examine overall mechanism transition. All are consistent novel form solvent mediation which interface between phases microscopic layer solution.

Laue diffraction patterns, using the full white beam from a synchrotron source, can be recorded on film with exposure times of 1s or less; comparatively small number photographs taken crystal in different orientations record large proportion unique reflections, allowing structure to determined fully set films within period 1–10 minutes.

Abstract The phenomenon of solvent-induced habit modification materials is well documented. In much the same way as additives or impurities within a system can cause morphological differences, change in growth solvent also result dramatic crystal alterations. This research details method qualitatively predicting solvent-modified morphologies ϵ-caprolactam, based on molecular dynamics and minimisation studies molecules surfaces. Binding energies are produced which then related to original...
