The two major polymorphs of the active pharmaceutical ingredient indomethacin were studied using a combination experimental low-frequency vibrational spectroscopies, theoretical solid-state density functional theory, and ab initio molecular dynamics calculations. results enable complete spectral assignment IR Raman spectra, yield new insight into energetic dynamical factors present within solids to be understood. Ultimately, these are used rationalize thermodynamic properties crystals, which...

In ZIF-8 and its cobalt analogue ZIF-67, the imidazolate methyl-groups, which point directly into void space, have been shown to freely rotate - even down cryogenic temperatures. Using a combination of experimental terahertz time-domain spectroscopy, low-frequency Raman state-of-the-art ab initio simulations, methyl-rotor dynamics in ZIF-67 are fully characterized within context quantum-mechanical hindered-rotor model. The results lend insight fundamental origins experimentally observed...

Cis–trans isomerization of muconic acid is an important component various chemical syntheses. Despite the existence three geometric isomers, little atomically precise information actually known their structures. In this work, complete crystal structures cis–cis, cis–trans, and trans–trans were determined via single-crystal X-ray diffraction then further analyzed using terahertz vibrational spectroscopy solid-state density functional theory. addition to being first reported structure for...

Through a combined experimental and theoretical investigation we determine that the fundamental modes of three quinacridones fall in terahertz spectral range (1–10 THz, ∼30–300 cm–1). In each spectrum resonances correspond to wagging, rocking, or twisting quinacridone rings, with most intense absorption being an in-plane rocking vibration carbonyl oxygens. spite these similarities, demonstrate measurements readily differentiate β-quinacridone, γ-quinacridone, 2,9-dimethylquinacridone. The...

While theophylline has been extensively studied with multiple polymorphs discovered, there is still currently no conclusive structure for the metastable form III. In this present work, by combining more widely used techniques such as X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis emerging like low-frequency Raman terahertz time-domain spectroscopy, to analyze dynamics of a crystalline system, it was possible provide further evidence that III monohydrate water molecules removed. Solid-state...

Quinacridone and its substituted analogs are pigments widely used in art industry. The temperature dependence of the crystal structures two quinacridone polymorphs (β γ), along with common variant 2,9-dimethylquinacridone, were investigated using powder X-ray diffraction terahertz spectroscopy. These then compared solid-state density functional theory simulations both vibrations. patterns collected at eight temperatures range 13-298 K spectra fifteen 20-300 K. Simulations absolute zero...

Muconic acid is known to exhibit three isomeric forms, but the cis-trans isomer largely uncharacterized. Using a combination of X-ray diffraction, solid-state density functional theory, and terahertz spectroscopy, detailed structural investigation was performed for muconic acid. Two crystalline polymorphs were discovered during this study through their distinct spectra. Terahertz data also revealed hydrate species present in bulk samples that related relative stabilities two polymorphs....

While drugs are typically created, stored, and administered in the more stable crystalline state, there is interest industrial settings to stabilize amorphous pharmaceuticals overcome bioavailability constraints. The stability of an pharmaceutical directly tied its β-glass transition, although detection often difficult. Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) one technique that can be used determine this transition as well commonly observed α-glass same experiment. both transitions...
