Figure 2
Part of the crystal structure of polymorph (Ib), showing the hydrogen-bonding interactions. Adjacent inversion-related ribbons formed by cytosine molecules A and B are interlinked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a hexameric hydrogen-bonded cavity with an R66(30) motif. Hydrogen bonds are shown as dashed lines and H atoms not involved in hydrogen bonding have been omitted for clarity. Only atoms involved in hydrogen bonding are labelled.
