The aggregation of pyridine-N-oxide molecules in the solid state is very sensitive to small changes of the hydrogen/deuterium (H/D) exchange of the molecules and the thermal conditions during the crystallization process. The in situ crystallization of a partial deuterated pyridine-N-oxide allows the characterization of a low-temperature crystallographic phase.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
