## Abstract The structural relationship between the two crystal forms of cinchomeronic acid (**CA** 3,4βdicarboxypyridine) has been investigated by single crystal Xβray diffraction, IR and Raman spectroscopy and solid state NMR spectroscopy, showing that the two polymorphs form a monotropic system,

β¦ Synopsis
Crystalline formic acid has been investigated by IR-spectroscopy and differential thermal tiyEiS from 78% to 300%. A first-order phase transition. showing hystefesis between 2070K and 218w has been observed, and tentative assigknents are given: 1. INTRODUCTION During our systematic studies of proton dynamics in hydrogen-bonded crystals by IR-spectroscopy we have investigated the polymorphic forms of formic acid. This polymorphism has been postulated by Mikawa et al. [l] on the basis of II&spectroscopy at high pressures. These authors deduced t-hat crystalline formic acid may exist in two different forms, named Q and B-
In order to interpret our experimental spec-
