Abstract

The achiral compound 2-(2-naphthylthio or 2-quinolinethio)-3-methylcyclohexen-1-one was found to crystallize in the chiral space group P212121. In one crystal, only one-handedness was found. In particular, although 2-(2-naphthylthio)-3-methylcyclohexen-1-one showed conformational polymorphism, both polymorphs were chiral crystals.
