Here, we demonstrate a possible way of avoiding these obstacles and making as much use of the two methods as possible in difficult circumstances. In a simple case, our experiments led to crystal structure elucidation of a cocrystal of linezolid (LIN), a wide-range antibiotic, with 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid, while a significantly more challenging case of a cocrystal of LIN with 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid led to the identification of the most probable conformations of LIN inside the crystal. Having four rotatable bonds, some of which can assume many discreet values, LIN molecule poses a challenge in establishing its conformation in a solid phase. In our work, a set of 27 conformations were used in CSP calculations to yield model crystal structures to be examined against experimental solid-state NMR data, leading to a reliable identification of the most probable molecular arrangements.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":21937,"journal":{"name":"Solid state nuclear magnetic resonance","volume":"121 ","pages":"Article 101813"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S092620402200042X/pdfft?md5=a5776a2ee30ff0ec8d7bfcff5950a35e&pid=1-s2.0-S092620402200042X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40611293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
