Proton transfer in croconic acid

DOI

Croconic acid has recently emerged as the first example of an above room-temperature organic single component ferroelectric. Our goal is to determine its crystal structure at room temperature in zero field and applied electric field using neutron single crystal diffraction. This would allow to confirm or otherwise the proposed mechanism of intermolecular proton transfer in an applied electric field.
