Structure of α-trans-cinnamic acid. Addendum

Abstract

An addendum [Wierda, Feng & Barron (1989). Acta Cryst. C45, 838] of a recent report of a determination of the structure of the title compound [Wierda, Feng & Barron (1989). Acta Cryst. CA5,[338][339]] drew attention to a reference * To whom correspondence should be addressed.0108-2701/90/010173-01 $03.00 [Bryan & Freyberg (1975). J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. 2, pp. 1835-1840 overlooked by the authors in their original report. The addendum failed to make clear that this reference contained a report of a complete room-temperature determination of the crystal structure in question. The two structures are in good agreement, except for variations attributed to differences in temperature.All relevant information is contained in the Abstract.
