The desire to design rationally technologically useful solid-state materials has coupled with
our ever growing understanding of the nature of non-covalent intermolecular interactions …

Modern crystal engineering has emerged as a rich discipline whose success requires an
iterative process of synthesis, crystallography, crystal structure analysis, and computational …

The Cambridge Structural Database is a storehouse of over 250 000 small-molecule organic
and organometallic crystal structures. Statistical analysis of structural data provides a better …

Supramolecular chemistry, or chemistry beyond the molecule, has provided a wide canvas
for a variety of studies of molecular materials in the solid state. The most orderly …

The first CrystEngComm discussion meeting on crystal engineering has demonstrated that
the field has reached maturity in some areas (for example: design strategies …

Detailed structures of molecular crystals cannot yet be predicted with consistent accuracy,
but the strategy of molecular tectonics offers crystal engineers a powerful tool for designing …

The aims of crystal engineering are the understanding of intermolecular interactions and
their application in the design of crystal structures with specific architectures and properties …

Crystal Engineering has traditionally dealt with molecular crystals. It is the understanding of
intermolecular interactions in the context of crystal packing and in the utilization of such …

Questions relating to the prediction of the crystal structure or structures of a given organic
molecule may be more gainfully reversed so that retrosynthetic analysis of a target crystal …

Supramolecular chemistry is the chemistry of the intermolecular bond and is based on the
