Abstract
Single crystals of the anhydrous polymorphic modification of the organometa llic zwitterion [Co-III(eta(5)-C5H4CO2H)(eta(5)-C5H4CO2)] can only be obtai ned by seeding the solution with seeds prepared after stepwise dehydration and consequent phase transition at 506 K of the hydrated material [Co-III(e ta(5)-C5H4CO2H)(eta(5)-C5H4CO2)]. 3H(2)O.
