“…Many solvated structures have been reported for both cholic acid (Lessinger, 1982;Lessinger & Low, 1993;Miki et al, 1988;Miki, Kasai, Shibakami, Takemoto & Miyata, 1991;Nakano, Sada & Miyata, 1994;Caira, Nassimbeni & Scott, 1993, 1994aShibakami & Sekiya, 1994;Scott, 1995) and deoxycholic acid (Giglio, 1984). Of special note are the isostructural forms of cholic acid when solvated with methanol, ethanol and 1-propanol (Johnson & Schaefer, 1972;Jones & Nassimbeni, 1990). However, less attention has been given to cholic acid salt complexes.…”
