Subject Terms: organic molecular crystals, high pressure, polymorphism, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, benzo[a]pyrene, density functional theory, Crystallography, QD901-999
More Details: In the recent publication by Zhou et al. [(2025). IUCrJ, 12, 16–22], the crystal structure of benzo[a]pyrene was studied under high pressure up to 28 GPa using single-crystal X-ray diffraction and DFT calculations. This commentary highlights the importance of high pressure for analyzing organic molecular crystals.
