Abstract
We used gravimetric analysis (GA) and ^13^C solid‐state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to study solid‐phase transition from the transparent single crystal of L‐serine (L‐Ser) monohydrate to a turbid powder. We found that L‐Ser monohydrate loses water molecules and transforms into an anhydrate, thus experimentally demonstrating Frey's assumption (Acta Cryst., B29, 876, 1973). Application of a handmade cross‐polarization (CP) NMR probe with a saddle‐type coil to the oriented crystal of the L‐Ser monohydrate revealed the dehydration mechanism. Furthermore, the chemical shift tensor components of the carboxyl carbon in L‐Ser monohydrate were determined. The difference in the tensor component of δ~22~ between the monohydrate and anhydrate forms was more than 7 ppm, probably owing to differences in the hydrogen‐bonding structure of each form.
