Abstract
We report unusual behavior of β-alanine under pressure. Depending on the protocol with which pressure was increased, the crystals of β-alanine I after transition to phase II either transformed to monoclinic phase V at approximately 6 GPa, or remained orthorhombic at least up to 8 GPa in phase II with a molecular packing very similar to phase I
