Borono phenylalanine abbreviated as BPA is a biologically important compound which is obtained from L‐Phenylalanine (C 9 H 11 NO 2 ) in which a boron atom is bonded. BPA is an amino acid analogue, helpful in the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme, a highly malignant form of brain tumor is crystallized in silica gel under 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)
