Thermal behavior of racemic Chloramphenicol base hydrochloride monohydrate ‘rac-AD·HCl·H2O’, showing 6.66% loss of ca. one molecule of water of crystallization in open Pt crucible in thermogravimetric (TG) furnace (upper curve), meanwhile heat effects of complex dehydration, dissolution in the water of crystallization, drying and final fusion are observed by DSC in closed Al crucible (lower curve).
