Polymorphs, Solvatomorphs, Hydrate, and Perhydrate of Dabrafenib

Sunil K. Rai et al.

Summary: Crystal form screening of the anticancer drug dabrafenib (DBF) was conducted, leading to the discovery of three crystal forms and eight solvates. The stability of the polymorphs was calculated, with form II being the most stable. The study also analyzed the water content of an isomorphous peroxosolvate and found it to be a mixed hydrate/peroxosolvate. The findings suggest further research opportunities in the solid-form landscape of DBF.

Organic Crystal Packing Is Key to Determining the Photomechanical Response

Cameron J. Cook et al.

Summary: Organic photomechanical crystals, as molecular machines, have great potential but lack clear theoretical design principles. Density functional theory calculations show that crystal packing significantly affects the work densities of photochromes. Different crystal structures of the same species can vary the predicted work densities by an order of magnitude. Parallel alignment of molecules produces a highly anisotropic photomechanical response, resulting in the highest work densities. Polymorph screening and crystal engineering could improve these work densities. Additionally, a thermodynamic asymmetry biases photomechanical engines to exhibit higher work densities in the forward stroke direction.

Chandler Greenwell et al.

Summary: A spin-component-scaled, dispersion-corrected MP2 model (SCS-MP2D) is proposed to address the limitations of MP2 in describing dispersion interactions and reaction thermochemistry. Experimental results show that SCS-MP2D considerably improves the accuracy of MP2 and is comparable in accuracy and computational cost to state-of-the-art density functionals.

The role of free space in photochemical reactions in crystals at high pressure - the case of 9-methylanthracene

Julia Bakowicz et al.

Summary: The influence of pressure on the [4+4] photodimerization of 9-methylanthracene crystals is investigated. Crystals of the pure product are obtained under high pressure, allowing for the monitoring of the reaction. The initial increase in unit-cell volume caused by the reaction is reduced at high pressure due to decreased void volume. Despite the smaller void volume at high pressure, dimer molecules change the orientation of monomer molecules in the crystal structure.

Effect of halogen substitution on energies and dynamics of reversible photomechanical crystals based on 9-anthracenecarboxylic acid

Thomas J. Gately et al.

Summary: 9-Anthracene carboxylic acid derivatives form a family of thermally reversible photomechanical molecular crystals, with steric interactions playing a dominant role in photodimer formation and an energetic threshold of 80-90 kJ per mole for the dimerization reaction. Fluorinated 9ACs exhibit absent intermolecular bonding, explaining observed trends in dissociation kinetics and mechanical reset times. Photodimer dissociation kinetics depend on the initial photodimer amount, leading to a complex relationship between halogen atom substitution and dissociation rates.

Bridging photochemistry and photomechanics with NMR crystallography: the molecular basis for the macroscopic expansion of an anthracene ester nanorod

Kevin R. Chalek et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates how a novel combination of techniques including ensemble oriented-crystal solid-state NMR, X-ray diffraction, and first principles computational modeling can establish the atomic-resolution mechanism for the photomechanical response of crystals composed of photoreactive molecules. The model constructed based on these techniques accurately predicts the elongation of the crystal nanorods. Understanding how molecular-level photochemistry generates mechanical displacements allows for the tuning of the expansion of the nanorods by controlling the initial orientation of the unit cell, offering new insights into the relationship between atomic-level structural rearrangement and mechanical response in nanostructured samples.
