Abstract

Correction for ‘Solution growth and thermal treatment of crystals lead to two new forms of 2-((2,6-dimethylphenyl)amino)benzoic acid’ by Rong Hu et al., RSC Adv., 2018, 8, 15459–15470.


The new form, i.e. form II of 2-((2,6-dimethylphenyl)amino)benzoic acid identified in the original article is the same form as the one reported by V. Dokorou et al.1 The crystal structure reported by Dokorou is incorrect as they mistakenly doubled the unit cell, leading us to believe we were reporting a new form.

The recently published Comment article2 highlights our error in reporting form II as new.

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
