Polymorphs of 1,1-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)cyclohexane and multiple Z' crystal structures by melt and sublimation crystallization.
Close packing conflict in a metastable polymorph of the pure title host (Z' = 2, melt crystal m) is resolved in the stable form (Z' = 1, sublimed crystal s) as O-H...O hydrogen bond changes to O-H...pi interaction. Melt crystallization and sublimation show a greater percentage of high Z' structures in CSD statistics.
