Abstract
Abstract The topochemical rule states that, in organic solids, the reactions occur with a minimum of atomic and molecular movements and are controlled by the crystalline structure of the starting materials.1 The photochemical behaviour of α and β modifications of trans cinnamic acid crystals is a good illustration of the topochemical concept, each crystalline form gives the stereoisomer expected from the idealized crystal structure.1
