Preferred Label : racemic conglomerate;
IUPAC definition : An equimolar mechanical mixture of crystals each one of which contains only one of
the two enantiomers present in a racemate. The process of its formation on crystallization
of a racemate is called spontaneous resolution, since pure or nearly pure enantiomers
can often be obtained from the conglomerate by sorting.;
