A new polymorph of the title compound, CHNO, was obtained by recrystallization of the commercial product from a water/ethanol mixture (1:1 /). Crystals of the previously reported racemic and homochiral forms of 2-phenyl-butyramide were grown from water-aceto-nitrile solution in 1:1 volume ratio [Khrustalev (2014 ▸). , 3360-3369]. While the previously reported racemic and enanti-opure forms of the title compound adopt very similar supra-molecular structures (hydrogen-bonded ribbons), the new racemic polymorph is stabilized by a single N-H⋯O hydrogen bond that links mol-ecules into chains along the -axis direction with an anti-parallel (centrosymmetric) packing in the crystal. Hirshfeld mol-ecular surface analysis was employed to compare the inter-molecular inter-actions in the polymorphs of the title compound.

Background: Curcumin is a polyphenolic compound derived from the food spice turmeric that has received interest from the medical and scientific world for its role in the management of several conditions. Clinical studies, in humans, have shown that ingested Curcumin is safe even at high doses (12 g/day), but it has poor bioavailability primarily due to poor absorption and rapid metabolism and elimination. Several strategies have been implemented to improve the bioavailability of Curcumin, for example, the combination of piperine in a complex with Curcumin, or the usage of formulations with phospholipid or liposomal complexes.

After a peripheral nerve injury, Schwann cells (SCs), the myelinating glia of the peripheral nervous system, convert into repair cells that foster axonal regrowth, and then remyelinate or re-ensheath regenerated axons, thereby ensuring functional recovery. The efficiency of this mechanism depends however on the time needed for axons to regrow. Here, we show that ablation of histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) in SCs accelerates the regrowth of sensory axons and sensory function recovery.
