Direct observation of a transient polymorph during crystallization

Abstract

Application of a technique developed for in situ solid-state 13C NMR studies of crystallization processes reveals direct evidence that crystallization of glycine from a methanol/water solution involves the initial transient formation of the β polymorph, which then undergoes a solution-mediated polymorphic transformation to yield the more stable α polymorph.
