We have not yet established whether the enantiomerically pure hydride dimer must form a thermodynamically less stable crystal, or (more likely) that its crystal is kinetically less accessible than that for the racemate. For a discussion of the relative occurrences and stabilities of racemic versus homochiral crystals, see: Brock, C. P.; Schweizer, W. B.; Dunitz, J. D. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1991, 113, 9811.
