Conclusion
The crystal structure of the pure salt is presented, showing no disorder of the anions compared to previous determinations.
Supporting Evidence
- The study presents a pure crystal structure without impurities.
- The ions in the crystal form chains linked by hydrogen bonds.
Takeaway
This study looks at the structure of a specific salt, showing how its components fit together without any mix-ups from impurities.
Methodology
Crystals were grown by slow evaporation of a methanol solution containing hexamethylenetetramine and fumaric acid.
