TL;DR
This study reports the co-crystallization of 6,13-dihydropentacene and pentacene, revealing their crystal structure and composition during vapour transport, which advances understanding of their solid-state properties.
Contribution
The paper presents the first detailed crystal structure of co-crystals formed by 6,13-dihydropentacene and pentacene, highlighting their specific ratio and monoclinic P2_1/n structure.
Findings
Co-crystallization occurs in a 2:1 ratio during vapour transport.
The crystal structure is monoclinic P2_1/n.
Contains one dihydropentacene and half a pentacene molecule per asymmetric unit.
Abstract
6,13-dihydropentacene and pentacene co-crystallise in a ratio of 2:1 during vapour transport of commercial pentacene in a gas flow. The crystal structure is monoclinic P2_1/n and contains one dihydropentacene molecule, and half a pentacene molecule in the asymmetric unit.
