NMR crystallography using quadrupolar nuclei: applications to active pharmaceutical ingredients and multi-component crystals formed by mechanochemical syntheses

Recrystallization of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients

Crystal engineering of pharmaceutical co-crystals from polymorphic active pharmaceutical ingredients.

The carboxylic acid-primary amide supramolecular heterosynthon is exploited for the generation of pharmaceutical co-crystals that contain two active pharmaceutical ingredients that are polymorphic in their pure forms.

Hierarchical construction of SHG-active polar crystals by using multi-component crystals.

Organic salts composed of chiral amines and sulfonic acid with high hyperpolarizability allowed the construction of polar crystals with incorporated guest molecules. The polarity of the crystals was precisely regulated by employing suitable guest molecules. As a result, the crystals generated a strong second harmonic generation property.

New methods and applications in solid-state NMR spectroscopy of quadrupolar nuclei.

Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has long been established as offering unique atomic-scale and element-specific insight into the structure, disorder, and dynamics of materials. NMR spectra of quadrupolar nuclei (I > (1)/2) are often perceived as being challenging to acquire and to interpret because of the presence of anisotropic broadening arising from the interaction o...

Charge density and optical properties of multicomponent crystals containing active pharmaceutical ingredients or their analogues.

Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), through their favourable donor/acceptor spatial distribution and synthon formation flexibility, are attractive building blocks in modern materials crystallography. The optical properties of a crystal strongly depend on two factors, i.e. the spatial distribution of molecules in the crystal structure and the electronic properties of molecular building blo...
