β¦ Synopsis
It is reported for the first time the growth of urotropine (HMT) crystals by a semiopen physical vapour transport (SOPVT) technique. HMT crystals, approximately 1 cm 3 in volume, are grown on a glass pedestal from solution-grown seeds. The final habit of the crystals is limited by rhomboedrical {110} faces which develop on an otherwise hemispherical shape. Preliminary X-ray diffraction investigations (rocking curves and topographs) point to a still non-homogeneous crystal structure, which very likely originates at the seed-crystal interface. However, in comparison with solution-grown samples, the best structural quality was observed in a SOPVT-grown sample.

Large single crystals of the polar lithium sulfamate, Li[NH 2 SO 3 ], were grown from aqueous solution. The crystal structure was determined using single crystal X-ray diffraction data (space group: Pca2 1 (Nr. 29), a=16.253(2) Γ , b=5.0529(3) Γ , c=8.2469(7) Γ , R=0.019). Precise refractive indices we
