Abstract
ABSTRACT Cocrystallisation of butanoic acid (BA), pentanoic acid (PA), and eicosanoic acid (EA) with 4,4’-azopyridine (azp) and trans-1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (bpe) results in 2:1 lamellar cocrystals. All cocrystals display the OH···Npyridyl seven-membered ring supramolecular synthon however, each cocrystal responds differently upon heating. Positive thermal expansion (PTE) occurs along the c-axis due to π···π stacking in the isostructural BA cocrystals, while the PA cocrystals are not isostructural and display a mixture of anti and gauche conformations of the acid chains because of the length mismatch with the coformer. PA2·azp displays negative thermal expansion (NTE) of the intrasynthon C···O hydrogen bond. The two EA cocrystals both display c-axis elongation on warming due to the expansion of the distance between the alkyl chains. The expansion by more than 1 Å in EA2·azp is highly anisotropic, however, there is much less c-axis expansion in EA2·bpe. Graphical Abstract
期刊介绍:
Supramolecular Chemistry welcomes manuscripts from the fields and sub-disciplines related to supramolecular chemistry and non-covalent interactions. From host-guest chemistry, self-assembly and systems chemistry, through materials chemistry and biochemical systems, we interpret supramolecular chemistry in the broadest possible sense. Interdisciplinary manuscripts are particularly encouraged. Manuscript types include: high priority communications; full papers; reviews, and; Methods papers, techniques tutorials highlighting procedures and technologies that are important to the field. We aim to publish papers in a timely fashion and as soon as a paper has been accepted and typeset it will be published in electronic form on the Latest articles section of the website. The two most important review criteria are that the paper presents high-quality work that fits generally into the broad spectrum of activities in the supramolecular chemistry field. Under normal circumstances, Supramolecular Chemistry does not consider manuscripts that would be more suitable in a highly specialized journal. This includes, but is not limited to, those based mostly or exclusively on topics such as solid state/X-ray structures, computational chemistry, or electrochemistry. .
