Quantitative phase analyses through the Rietveld method with X-ray powder diffraction data of heat-treated carbamazepine form III.

The present work shows that the heated carbamazepine (CBZ) powder form III can be described as purely triclinic form I or a mixture of triclinic form I and monoclinic form III, depending on the resolution of the X-ray diffraction equipment used. Visual identification of the minor phase is possible when high-resolution synchrotron light is used. Quantitative phase analyses of CBZ forms I and III, after thermal treatment, were performed by using both synchrotron and conventional copper rotating anode X-ray powder diffraction data and the Rietveld method.

Coordination polymer adsorbent for matrix solid-phase dispersion extraction of pesticides during analysis of dehydrated Hyptis pectinata medicinal plant by GC/MS.

The coordination polymer [Zn(BDC)(H(2)O)(2)](n) was tested for extraction of pyrimethanil, ametryn, dichlofluanid, tetraconazole, flumetralin, kresoxim-methyl and tebuconazole from the medicinal plant Hyptis pectinata, with analysis using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in selected ion monitoring mode (GC/MS, SIM). Experiments carried out at different fortification levels (0.1, 0.

Crystal structure determination of mebendazole form A using high-resolution synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction data.

The crystal structure determination of mebendazole form A, an anthelmintic drug, was performed for the first time by applying the DASH software program to synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data, and supported by a satisfying Rietveld fit. This polymorph of mebendazole crystallizes in a triclinic (P1) space group, with unit-cell parameters a = 5.5044(2) A, b = 11.
