L‐Phenylalanine (C 9 H 11 NO 2 ), having the morphology of spherulitic needles, an amino acid constituent, responsible for brain nutrition is crystallized in silica gel of pH 6.0 by single diffusion method in a period of 30 minutes. The grown crystals were characterized by X‐ray powder diffraction, Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy and Visible Ultraviolet spectroscopy. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
