OBJECTIVE To investigate any relationship between the nature, size, and numbers of synovial fluid (SF) calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystals, and attacks of pseudogout. METHODS Knee SF was aspirated from nine selected patients, first during an attack of pseudogout (acute sample) and again later when the attack had subsided (interval sample). CPPD crystals were extracted, weighed, ex...

The title compound, C10H5FN2, is a monoclinic (P21/c) polymorph of the previously reported triclinic (P-1) form [Anti-pin et al. (2003 ▶). J. Mol. Struct. 650, 1-20]. The 13 non-H atoms in the title polymorph are almost coplanar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.020 Å); a small twist between the fluoro-benzene and dinitrile groups [C-C-C-C torsion angle = 175.49 (16)°] is evident in the triclinic polymorph...

Hexane-dioic acid (or adipic acid), C(6)H(10)O(4), crystallizes with two crystallographically independent half-mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit of the triclinic unit cell, space group P, as each mol-ecule lies across a crystallographic inversion centre. A monoclinic polymorph has been reported previously, most recently by Ranganathan, Kulkarni & Rao [J. Phys. Chem. A, (2003), 107, 6073-6081]. ...

The title compound, C(3)H(3)N(3)S(3), is a triclinic modification. The other reported modification crystallizes with just one mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit, [Guo et al. (2006 ▶). Cryst. Growth Des.6, 846-848] and was solved by power X-ray diffraction data. The present modification has Z' = 2. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by strong intra-molecular N-H⋯S hydrogen bonds with set graph-...

The synthesis, infra-red, Raman and NMR spectra and crystal structure of 2, 4, 4-trimethyl4, 5-dihydro-3H-benzo [b] [1,4] diazepin-1-ium tetrachlorocadmate, [C12H17N2]2CdCl4 and benzene-1,2-diaminium decachlorotricadmate(II) [C6H10N2]2Cd3Cl10 are reported. The [C12H17N2]2CdCl4 compound crystallizes in the triclinic system ( space group) with Z = 2 and the following unit cell dimensions: a = 9.6...
