Figure 2
The evolution of the urea–phosphoric acid structure as a function of temperature between 150 and 335 K (drawn using ORTEPII, Johnson, 1971, with 50% probability ellipsoids). The significant migration of the proton in the short strong hydrogen bond is emphasized by our choice of covalent bond limits for O—H bonds in these plots – at 315 K and above the H atom has moved sufficiently close to the midpoint of the O⋯O vector so as not to appear bonded to either in these plots. |
