Abstract

There is currently considerable interest in the phenomenon of polymorphism in organic molecular solids, and a key issue in this field is to understand the experimental techniques and procedures that may be employed to obtain new polymorphic forms of a given molecule. This paper demonstrates that the polymorphic form of a material (sodium acetate) obtained by a solid-state dehydration process (starting from sodium acetate trihydrate) can be altered by carrying out the dehydration process under conditions of rapid (several kilohertz) sample rotation in a solid-state magic-angle-spinning NMR probe. This observation suggests a new opportunity to influence the outcome of solid-state dehydration/desolvation processes and, in particular, to alter the polymorphic form of the product obtained.
