β¦ Synopsis
This work reports the preparation and crystal structure of a trihydrate of paracetamol. Crystals were grown by slow cooling of an aqueous solution of paracetamol to 08C. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction shows that the trihydrate crystallizes in the orthorhombic crystal system, space group Pbca, Z ΒΌ 8, a ΒΌ 7.3324( 16), b ΒΌ 12.590(3), c ΒΌ 22.636(6) A Λ, V ΒΌ 2089.7(9) A Λ3. The crystals of the trihydrate dehydrate rapidly at 208C to give anhydrous paracetamol as its monoclinic form.
