Tribenzoatobismuth(III): a new polymorph
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new polymorph (β) was obtained for an active pharmaceutical ingredient, bis-muth tribenzoate, [Bi(C(6)H(5)CO(2))(3)]. The new β-polymorph is 1.05 times denser than the previously known polymorph [Rae et al. (1998 ▶). Acta Cryst. B54, 438-442]. In the β-polymorph, the Bi atom is linked with three benzoate anions, each of them acting as a bidentate ligand, and these assemblies with C(3) point symmetry can be considered as 'mol-ecules'. The structure of the β-polymorph has no polymeric chains, in contrast to the previously known polymorph. The 'mol-ecules' in the β-polymorph are stacked along [001], so that the phenyl rings of the neighbouring mol-ecules are parallel to each other. Based on the pronounced difference in the crystal structures, one can suppose that two polymorphs should differ in the dissolution kinetics and bioavailability.

Concomitant polymorphism and a temperature-dependent phase change in (E)-[1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-phenyl-2-propenylideneamino]oxyacetic acid.
The title compound, C(18)H(17)NO(4), crystallizes from ethanol at ambient temperature as two concomitant polymorphs (I) and (II), both monoclinic P2(1)/c with Z' = 1. The less abundant form (I) undergoes a reversible phase-transition at ca 173 K to a third monoclinic polymorph (III), P2(1)/n, with Z' = 2, while the more abundant polymorph (II) is unchanged down to 120 K. In each polymorph of (I...
متن کاملZeta-Fe2O3 – A new stable polymorph in iron(III) oxide family
Iron(III) oxide shows a polymorphism, characteristic of existence of phases with the same chemical composition but distinct crystal structures and, hence, physical properties. Four crystalline phases of iron(III) oxide have previously been identified: α-Fe2O3 (hematite), β-Fe2O3, γ-Fe2O3 (maghemite), and ε-Fe2O3. All four iron(III) oxide phases easily undergo various phase transformations in re...
متن کاملA new polymorph and two inclusion compounds of 9,9'-spirobifluorene.
Two new inclusion compounds of 9,9'-spirobifluorene (SBF) incorporating benzene [(I), C25H16.C6H6] and biphenyl [(II), C25H16.C12H10], and a new polymorph of SBF [(III), C25H16] are reported. All three exhibit C-H...pi(arene) hydrogen bonds between adjacent SBF molecules. Compound (II) also contains biphenyl C-H to SBF pi-arene interactions. Collectively, hydrogen bonding gives rise to a chain ...
متن کاملComparative Study of Patentability of Drug Polymorphism in Iran and the USA
Drug polymorphs are defined as a different arrangement of the same active compounds in crystalline form, which can potentially affect its therapeutic activity by changing the dissolution profile of drug upon administration. Discovery of new polymorphs therefore can provide added value for a previously marketed drug, due to the new advantages provided by the novel polymorph. Therefore, there is ...
متن کاملCrystal structure of a third polymorph of tris(acetylacetonato-κ2 O,O′)iron(III)
In the structure of the title complex, [Fe(C5H7O2)3] or Fe(acac)3, the asymmetric unit contains one mol-ecule in a general position. The coordination sphere of the Fe(III) atom is that of a slightly distorted octahedron. The crystal under investigation was a two-component pseudo-merohedral twin in the monoclinic system with a β angle close to 90°. Twin law [100/0-10/00-1] reduced the R1 residua...
