Abstract
In situ high-pressure Raman spectroscopy and synchrotron angular dispersive x-ray diffraction techniques, combined with first-principles calculations, have been performed to investigate the 1-methylhydantoin (C4H6N2O2, 1-MH) molecular crystal. High-pressure experiments have shown that phase I (monoclinic system) begins to transform into phase II (orthorhombic system) at pressures above 4.0GPa, and the transformation range is from 4.0 to 14.2GPa. It is proposed that the mechanism of phase transition is the interlayer contraction and rearrangement of the hydrogen-bonding network due to the enhanced strong hydrogen-bonded interactions at high pressures. This study provides some theoretical basis for this rare pressure-induced phase transition from low symmetry to high symmetry in organic supramolecular polymorphism.
