Crystal engineering - where the myriad of intermolecular forces
operating in the solid-state are employed to design new nano- and
functional materials - is a key new technology with implications
for catalysis, pharmaceuticals, synthesis and materials science.
Frontiers in Crystal Engineering gathers personal perspectives,
from international specialists working in molecular aspects of
crystal engineering, on the practical and theoretical challenges of
the discipline, and future prospects. These demonstrate the
approaches that are being used to tackle the problems associated
with the complexity, design and functionality of crystalline
molecular solids.
Topics include
* how intermolecular forces direct and sustain crystal
structures
* functional engineering and design elements
* coordination polymers and network structures
* applications in green and pharmaceutical chemistry
Frontiers in Crystal Engineering is a useful guide to this exciting
new discipline for both entrants to the field as well as
established practitioners, and for those working in
crystallography, medicinal and pharmaceutical sciences, solid-state
chemistry, and materials and nanotechnology.
