After a reaction it often happens, that even since they describe a 99% yield of a product, what is a different compound what you have started from, you’ll get back the starting material in a really high +95% yield in a higher purity, than what you have started from.

This happened in this case also. Nothing happened during the reaction, but I have recovered what I have started from, in the form of these beautiful crystals.

The first picture is part of the gallery: Crystals from the lab on Behance. Visit it to see more adorable pictures from quite different crystals(:
