The simulated powder XRD pattern of the single crystals was also complex and did not exactly match the powder XRD spectrum recorded for the microwires, but the structures of the wires and single crystals are likely bear certain similarity, considering the same solvent used to obtain them. Elemental analysis showed that dioxane molecules were contained in the microwires, as in the single crystals
