The latter are used to introduce energy–temperature diagrams, leading to the definition of the concepts enantiotropism and monotropism describing the thermodynamic relationships between and among polymorphs with appropriate examples. The alternate representation of phase diagram in terms of pressure and temperature is also presented. These lead to a number of rules regarding the relationships between polymorphs and ways to understand and predict some important physical properties: the heat-of-transition rule, the heat-of-fusion rule, the entropy-of-fusion rule, the heat-capacity rule, the density rule, and the infrared rule. Structural aspects include the distinction between crystal form and crystal habit and methods for characterizing and comparing structures in polymorphic systems. Current developments are discussed that deal with the ramifications of nanoscale situations on structural concepts and thermodynamic relationships.","PeriodicalId":133285,"journal":{"name":"Polymorphism in Molecular Crystals","volume":"170 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113997641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The subject is divided into properties that depend on the one hand on the bulk—that is, the three-dimensional arrangement of the molecules and the interactions among them—and on the other hand the consideration of the crystal as an “oriented gas” serving to act as a matrix for the molecules to permit the study of molecular properties. Among the properties described in the former category are electrical conductivity, organic magnetic materials, photovoltaicity and photoconductivity, second harmonic generation, chromoisomerism, photochromism, thermochromism and mechanochromism, and the mechanosalient effect. The latter category includes a discussion of spectroscopic studies (infrared, Raman, and ultraviolet/visible), excimer phenomena, time-resolved studies of excited states, photochemical reactions and thermal and gas reactions, along with a variety of emission phenomena.

Following a discussion of the problem of determining the statistics of the occurrence of polymorphism in pharmaceuticals, I present a discussion and examples of the connection between polymorphism and the rate of dissolution and solubility, bioavailability, and the importance of phase changes and mixtures of forms in pharmaceutical preparations. I survey some of the considerations and techniques involved in screening for crystal forms: solvent selection, specific screening for solvates and hydrates, gel crystallization, crystallization in ionic liquids, the challenge of difficult to obtain stable forms and unstable new forms, and the outlook on new techniques and conditions for crystallization. The chapter also deals with polymorphism in pharmaceutical co-crystals, excipients, and amorphous forms and the importance and utility of chemical microscopy in the study of polymorphism of pharmaceuticals.","PeriodicalId":133285,"journal":{"name":"Polymorphism in Molecular Crystals","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123845722","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Compared to other classes of compounds treated in the book for which the polymorphs with less suitable properties are not chosen for use, and thus relegated to lower importance, for high energy materials the risks and dangers of lack of familiarity and control of the polymorphic system can entail considerable long-term risks. The chapter is divided into two major sections distinguishing between aliphatic materials and the aromatic materials, commonly known by their alphabetic moniker. Throughout the chapter the history of the development of many of these materials is provided, including some rather obscure references culled from formerly classified government research reports.
