Abstract

In recent years the interest in design, synthesis and characterization of cocrystals has grown significantly because of its ability to modify the physical properties of solid materials relevant to pharmaceutical and fine chemical industries.This brief overview is an attempt to give readers a flavour of cocrystals: what it is, whatits current possible applications are, what distinguishes it from other multicomponent crystals such as solvents and salts, and how to predict whether or not the target molecule will form cocrystal using some commonly available techniques.
