Crystal engineering is the branch of supramolecular chemistry concerned with the design
and synthesis of extended structures with predictable form and function. In this chapter, the …

The control of structures and properties in crystalline materials has many returns that justify
the increasing efforts in this direction. Traditionally, crystal engineering focused on the …

The utilization of noncovalent interactions to construct molecular crystals is evaluated in the
context of inorganic and organometallic crystal engineering. The attention is focused on …

The articles published in the tenth anniversary issue of CrystEngComm are reviewed. The
issue highlighted the state-of-the-art of crystal engineering and new trends and developing …

The nature of CH··· X interactions in organic crystals, with X being an electronegative atom,
has been the subject of extensive consideration with sometimes contradictory results and …

In the world of crystal engineering in which the focus of effort is on the assembly of molecular
species by crystallisation, surprisingly little attention has been paid to the actual nucleation …

Crystal engineering is a bridge between supramolecular and materials chemistry. The use of
organometallic molecules or ions in the construction of crystals with predefined architectures …

The field of crystal engineering concerns the design and synthesis of molecular crystals with
desired properties. This requires an in-depth understanding of the intermolecular …

It has been 20 years since the concept of supramolecular synthon was introduced with the
purpose of rational supramolecular synthesis. While this concept has been greatly …

The design and synthesis of crystalline materials through the self-assembly of molecular
building blocks and the pursuit of functional materials based upon this approach are usually …
