Technological and computational advances in the past decade have meant
a vast increase in the study of crystalline matter in both organic,
inorganic and organometallic molecules. These studies revealed
information about the conformation of molecules and their coordination
geometry as well as the role of intermolecular interactions in
molecular packing especially in the presence of different
intermolecular interactions in solids. This resulting knowledge plays
a significant role in the design of improved medicinal, mechanical,
and electronic properties of single and multi-component solids in
their crystalline state.
Understanding Intermolecular Interactions in the Solid State explores
the different techniques used to investigate the interactions,
including hydrogen and halogen bonds, lone pair–pi, and pi–pi
interactions, and their role in crystal formation.
From experimental to computational approaches, the book covers the
latest techniques in crystallography, ranging from high pressure and
in situ crystallization to crystal structure prediction and charge
density analysis. Thus this book provides a strong introductory
platform to those new to this field and an overview for those already
working in the area. A useful resource for higher level
undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers across crystal
engineering, crystallography, physical chemistry, solid-state
chemistry, supramolecular chemistry and materials science.
