Structure comparisons [11 (link)] and the calculation of the dissimilarity index [7 (link)] were carried out in the previously described manner. All comparisons involving exclusively polymorphs of either Stz or Spn were based on geometrical parameters derived from the complete sets of non-H atomic positions. For comparisons between Stz and Spn, the atomic positions of the thiazole (Stz) or pyridine (Spn) ring were not used except for the carbon atom bonded to the sulfonamido N atom. Further details are given in section 4 of the Additional file 1.
