The arrangement of hydroxyl groups in the benzene ring has a significant effect on the propensity of dihydroxybenzoic acids (diOHBAs) to form different solid phases when crystallized from solution. All six diOHBAs were categorized into distinctive groups according to the solid phases obtained when crystallized from selected solvents. A combined study using crystal structure and molecule electrostatic potential surface analysis, as well as an exploration of molecular association in solution using spectroscopic methods and molecular dynamics simulations were used to determine the possible mechanism of how the location of the phenolic hydroxyl groups affect the diversity of solid phases formed by the diOHBAs. The crystal structure analysis showed that classical carboxylic acid homodimers and ring-like hydrogen bond motifs consisting of six diOHBA molecules are prominently present in almost all analyzed crystal structures. Both experimental spectroscopic investigations and molecular dynamics simulations indicated that the extent of intramolecular bonding between carboxyl and hydroxyl groups in solution has the most significant impact on the solid phases formed by the diOHBAs. Additionally, the extent of hydrogen bonding with solvent molecules and the mean lifetime of solute–solvent associates formed by diOHBAs and 2-propanol were also investigated.

<p>The control of the crystal form is a central issue in the pharmaceutical industry. The identification of putative polymorphs through Crystal Structure Prediction (CSP) methods is based on lattice energy calculations, which are known to significantly over-predict the number of plausible crystal structures. A valuable tool to reduce overprediction is to employ physics-based, dynamic simulations to coalesce lattice energy minima separated by small barriers into a smaller number of more stable geometries once thermal effects are introduced. Molecular dynamics simulations and enhanced sampling methods can be employed in this context to simulate crystal structures at finite temperature and pressure. </p><p>Here we demonstrate the applicability of approaches based on molecular dynamics to systematically process realistic CSP datasets containing several hundreds of crystal structures. The system investigated is ibuprofen, a conformationally flexible active pharmaceutical ingredient that crystallises both in enantiopure forms and as a racemic mixture. By introducing a hierarchical approach in the analysis of finite-temperature supercell configurations, we can post-process a dataset of 555 crystal structures, identifying 65% of the initial structures as labile, while maintaining all the experimentally known crystal structures in the final, reduced set. Moreover, the extensive nature of the initial dataset allows one to gain quantitative insight into the persistence and the propensity to transform of crystal structures containing common hydrogen-bonded intermolecular interaction motifs.</p>
