Commensurate molecules in isostructural crystals of cholesteryl cis- and trans-9-hexadecenoate.

At 295 K, crystals of form I of cholesteryl cis-9-hexadecenoate (palmitoleate) and cholesteryl trans-9-hexadecenoate (palmitelaidate) are difficult to distinguish by X-ray diffraction. Both form monoclinic thin plates, space group P21 with two molecules (C43H74O2) A and B in the asymmetric unit. Uni...
