Abstract 5-Fluorouracil is a widely used anti-cancer drug which exhibits diverse polymorphic and co-crystalline behavior. Here we report two new solvent-free co-crystals of 5-fluorouracil with model co-formers nicotinamide and isonicotinamide, along with the redetermination of their hydrated analogues. Selected co-formers are categorized as safe and therefore suitable for pharmaceutical applications. Differences and similarities in supramolecular topology of the given structures are discussed. A special emphasis is set on the influence of fluorine moieties on the overall packing and synthetic accessibility of the presented multi-component systems.

Nanocomposites are substances that incorporate nanoparticles (0.5-5% by weight) into a matrix of standard material, which enhances the mechanical strength, toughness including thermal or electrical conductivity and other properties. Nanocomposites are versatile in terms of their applications such as anti-corrosive, healing of bones, sensors, environmental protection, packaging, wastewater treatment, and diagnosis of tumors and other diverse uses. They may be fabricated by blending nanofillers with a polymer to produce a composite. The current trend of processing is by polymerizing monomers. Nanocomposites serve as sustainable solutions to curb global issues. Evaluation is performed on properties such as mechanical, thermal, dispersion, and toxicological. Some marketed products of nanocomposites include In Mat (coating), FiltekZ350 XT by 3M (tooth fillers), chitosan/organic rectorite nanocomposite films (bactericidal activity), graphene oxide/Carboxymethylcellulose (targeted drug delivery of anti-cancer drug doxorubicin), MD1 Flex, Nano Clean MD1, Plactive TM (Antimicrobial nanocomposites) and NovaProTM(Tooth fillers). This article discusses about Nanocomposites–their types, preparation methods, recent research and applications.
