Structural and thermodynamic explanations of Ostwald's rule

T Threlfall - Organic process research & development, 2003 - ACS Publications
Ostwald proposed that the solid first formed on crystallisation of a melt or a solution would be
the least stable polymorph. It is shown that this can be rationalized on the basis of …
