The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(10)H(6)N(4)O(4)S(2), contains two independent but similar mol-ecules. The structure is a triclinic polymorph of the monoclinic structure reported previously [Brito, Mundaca, Cárdenas, López-Rodríguez & Vargas (2007 ▶). Acta Cryst. E63, o3351-o3352]. The most obvious difference between the two polymorphs is the C-S-S-C torsion angle [-80.13 (16), -79....

A comparison is made between the electron density maps of the monoclinic and orthorhombic crystal forms of yeast tRNA(Phe) which have been obtained respectively by ourselves and by another group. It is concluded that the molecular structures are essentially the same in both crystals, although the models derived from the maps are not the same. The relation between the two molecular packings is d...

This data article describes the anisotropy of diffraction observed for the centered monoclinic crystals of OmpF reported in "Two different centered monoclinic crystals of the E. coli outer-membrane protein OmpF originate from the same building block (Chaptal et al., 2016 [1])". The datasets intensity falloff as a function of resolution are provided along with reflections along the (h,l) and (k,...

The structures of nanocrystals consisting of 70% vinylidene fl uoride and 30% trifl uoroethylene made by Langmuir–Blodgett deposition were studied using transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction. Highly ordered nanocrystals with sizes ranging from 100 nm to 4 μm were grown on Langmuir–Blodgett fi lms at a deposition surface pressure of 20 mN m−1. Electron diffraction patterns fr...

A second monoclinic polymorph of methyl 4-hydroxy-benzoate, C(8)H(8)O(3), is reported. The unit-cell dimensions are different from those of the previously reported monoclinic form [Vujovic & Nassimbeni (2006 ▶). Cryst. Growth Des.6, 1595-1597]. The asymmetric unit contains three crystallographically independent mol-ecules, as observed in the previous form. The crystal structure is stabilized by...

The dynamics of singlet fission (SF) are studied in monoclinic and orthorhombic crystals of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene. Picosecond time-resolved fluorescence measurements and the presence of a strong magnetic field effect indicate that up to 90% of the initially excited singlets undergo SF in both forms. The initial SF and subsequent triplet pair dissociation rates are found to be more rapid...
