The mechanochemical formation of the ionic cocrystals of glucose (Glc) and sodium salts Glc2NaCl·H2O (1) and Glc2NaX (X = Br (2), I (3)) is presented. Products are formed by co-milling Glc with three sodium salts (NaCl, NaBr, NaI). The ionic cocrystals were obtained under both neat grinding and liquid-assisted grinding conditions, the later found to accelerate the reaction kinetics. The crystal structures of the ionic cocrystals (2) and (3) were solved from powder X-ray diffraction data. The structure solution contrasts with the structure of Glc2NaCl·H2O (1) where the electron density at three halide crystallographic sites is modeled as of being the intermediate between water molecule and a chloride ion. The reaction pathways of the three ionic cocrystals were investigated in real time using our tandem approach comprising a combination of in situ synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. The results indicate the rapid formation of each cocrystal directly from their respective starting materials without any intermediate moiety formation. The products were further characterized by DTA-TG and elemental analysis.
The compound MOF-14 (Cu3(BTB)2, BTB = 4,4',4''-benzenetribenzoate) was synthesized by ball milling and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). The raw material was activated using an efficient single washing step to ensure a free pore access. Nitrogen adsorption measurements were carried out to determine the specific areas of the samples before and after activation. To interpret the activation process in terms of blocking effects in the micropore channels, NLDFT evaluations (Nonlocal Density Functional Theory) of the MOF-14 nitrogen isotherms were carried out. In connection with the appearance of additional hysteresis loops in the nitrogen isotherms, calculations of the mesopore size distribution were performed using the method of Barret, Joyner, and Halenda (BJH). The results are compared to those of a structurally analogue MOF, namely HKUST-1 (Cu3(BTC)2, BTC = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate). This comparison showed notable differences regarding the impact of the activation step on the formation of mesopores and their size distribution.
The mechanochemical synthesis of the zinc N-(phosphonomethyl)glycinate Zn(O₃PCH₂NH₂CH₂CO₂) H₂O is presented. The structure was solved from powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) data. In the three-dimensional pillared structure, the Zn atoms are coordinated tetrahedrally. In situ investigations of the reaction process with synchrotron PXRD and Raman spectroscopy reveal a two-step process including the formation of an intermediate.
An unusually fast and effective synthesis procedure for a host guest system consisting of a metal organic framework (MOF) and a polyoxometalate (POM) is described. The material was synthesised mechanochemically and the evolution of the structure was monitored ex and in situ using synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD).
The cocrystal formation of pyrazinamide (PZA) with malonic acid (MA) was studied in situ. The mechanochemical reaction proceeds via conversion of a crystalline intermediate (PZA:MA II) into the thermodynamically more stable form (PZA:MA I) upon further grinding. The information derived from in situ powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) enabled the isolation of this new metastable polymorph. On the basis of the PXRD data, the crystal structure of the 1:1 cocrystal PZA:MA II was solved. The polymorphs were further characterized and compared by Raman spectroscopy, solid-state NMR spectroscopy, differential thermal analysis/thermogravimetric analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. Our study demonstrates how monitoring mechanochemical reactions by in situ PXRD can direct the discovery and isolation of even short-lived intermediates not yet accessed by conventional methods.
The syntheses and crystal structures of two cerium(IV) phosphonates are presented. Cerium(IV) bis(phenylphosphonate) Ce(O3PC6H5)2 1 can be formed from precipitation and mechanochemical reaction, whereas cerium(IV) bis(carboxymethylphosphonate) monohydrate Ce(O3PCH2COOH)2 H2O 2 is only accessible via ball milling. All reactions proceed very fast and are completed within a short time span. In situ measurements for the syntheses of 1 show that the product occurs within seconds or a few minutes, respectively. The structures were solved from powder X-ray diffraction data.
The strategy of utilizing mechanochemical synthesis to obtain metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with high surface areas is demonstrated for two model systems. The compounds HKUST-1 (Cu3(BTC)2, BTC = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate) and MOF-14 (Cu3(BTB)2, BTB = 4,4',4''-benzenetribenzoate) were synthesized by ball milling and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermal analysis (DTA/DTG/MS). The specific surface area (SSA) of both compounds was characterized by nitrogen adsorption. To verify these results and to understand how the synthetic conditions influence the pore structure and the surface area, additional small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) experiments were carried out. Our investigations confirm that this synthesis approach is a promising alternative method for distinct MOFs. This facile method leads to materials with surface areas of 1713 m²/g, which is comparable to the highest given values in the literature for the respective compounds.
Benzamide has been known for its polymorphism for almost 200 years.Three polymorphic forms are described. To date,itwas only possible to crystallizeametastable form in amixture together with the thermodynamically most stable form I. Acomplete transformation of form Iinto the metastable form III by mechanochemical treatment has been achieved. Catalytic amounts of nicotinamide seeds were used to activate the conversion by mechanochemical seeding. NMR experiments indicated that the nicotinamide molecules were incorporated statistically in the crystal lattice of benzamide form III during the conversion. The transformation pathway was evaluated using in situ powder X-ray diffraction.
Mechanochemical reactions often result in 100% yields of single products, making purifying procedures obsolete. Mechanochemistry is also a sustainable and eco-friendly method. The ever increasing interest in this method is contrasted by a lack in mechanistic understanding of the mechanochemical reactivity and selectivity. Recent in situ investigations provided direct insight into formation pathways. However, the currently available theories do not predict temperature T as an influential factor. Here, we report the first determination of an apparent activation energy for a mechanochemical reaction. In a temperaturedependent in situ study the cocrystallisation of ibuprofen and nicotinamide was investigated as a model system. These experiments provide a pivotal step towards a comprehensive understanding of milling reaction mechanisms.
The stability of different theophylline cocrystals under milling conditions was investigated by competitive cocrystal reactions. To determine the most stable cocrystal form under milling conditions, the active pharmaceutical ingredient theophylline was either ground with two similar coformers (benzoic acid, benzamide, or isonicotinamide), or the existing theophylline cocrystals were ground together with a competitive coformer. All competitive reactions were investigated by in situ powder X-ray diffraction disclosing the formation pathway of the milling processes. On the basis of these milling reactions, a stability order (least to most stable) was derived: tp/bs < tp/ba < tp/ina < bs/ina.
