Polymorphism of Compound Existing as Both Racemic Compound-Crystals and Mixed-Crystals of Enantiomers
By recrystallization of certain racemic compound (ST), racemic compound crystals, mixed crystals of two enantiomers, or a mixture of these two types of crystals were obtained, depending on the recrystallization conditions employed. Their crystal forms were determined by X-ray diffraction of the single crystals and powdered materials. The space group and lattice parameters of the mixed crystals were identical with those of the enantiomeric crystals. This polymorphism of ST crystals would be ascribed to the small difference in the thermodynamic stability between the enantiomeric and racemic crystals. The physicochemical properties of ST are described, too.
