Crystal engineering offers a rational way of analyzing crystal structures and designing new structures with properties. The supramolecular synthon concept was introduced in 1995 and has shown versatility and utility in the ...

The thesis entitled "Phase Behaviour in Crystalline Solids: Exploring the Structure Guiding Factors via Polymorphism, Phase Transitions and Charge Density Studies" consists of five chapters divided into two parts. A basic ...

The thesis entitled “Organic fluorine in crystal engineering: Consequences on molecular and supramolecular organization” consists of six chapters. The main theme of the thesis is to address the role of substituted fluorine ...

Crystal engineering underlies the essence of natural affiliation between the molecule on the one side and the crystal as a supramolecular assembly on the other. Molecular recognition is the fundamental cause for this ...

The thesis entitled “Intermolecular Interactions in Molecular Crystals: Quantitative Estimates from Experimental and Theoretical Charge Densities” consists of four chapters and an Appendix. Chapter 1 highlights the principles ...

Crystal engineering is widely applied in the design of new solids with desired physical and chemical properties based on an understanding of intermolecular interactions in terms of crystal packing. The understanding of ...

Crystal engineering is defined as “the understanding of intermolecular interactions in the context of crystal packing and in the utilisation of such understanding in the design of new solids with desired physical and ...
