A1 - Emmerling, Franziska T1 - In Situ Investigation of a Self-Accelerated Cocrystal Formation by Grinding Pyrazinamide with Oxalic Acid JF - Molecules N2 - A new cocrystal of pyrazinamide with oxalic acid was prepared mechanochemically and characterized by PXRD, Raman spectroscopy, solid-state NMR spectroscopy, DTA-TG, and SEM. Based on powder X-ray diffraction data the structure was solved. The formation pathway of the reaction was studied in situ using combined synchrotron PXRD and Raman spectroscopy. Using oxalic acid dihydrate the initially neat grinding turned into a rapid self-accelerated liquid-assisted grinding process by the release of crystallization water. Under these conditions, the cocrystal was formed directly within two minutes.

A1 - Emmerling, Franziska T1 - Polymorphism of mechanochemically synthesized cocrystals: a case study JF - Crystal Growth & Design N2 - The liquid-assisted grinding cocrystallisation of theophylline with benzamide leading to polymorphic compounds was investigated. A solvent screening with seventeen different solvents was performed. The dipole moment of the solvent used in the synthesis determines the structure of the polymorphic product. A detailed investigation leads to the determination of the kinetically and thermodynamically favored product. In situ observations of the formation pathway during the grinding process of both polymorphs show that the thermodynamically favored cocrystal is formed in a two-step mechanism with the kinetic cocrystal as intermediate.
