'Not everything can be crystallised, and the structure you get if you do produce diffractable crystals is almost as much of a mystery' – Chemistry World's Neil Withers on a dark art.

Polymorphs matter – especially when they might disappear
Disappearing polymorphs offer a fascinating example of the dark arts of crystallisation
