Annotation -
Crystal engineering is a concept encompassing the design and synthesis of crystals and other supramolecular structures with desired properties. It is essential to understand and utilize intermolecular interactions, to understand how molecules aggregate in solution and how these aggregates form into crystals, what is the relationship between the structure of molecules and crystal structure, why some molecules have more than one crystal structure, why some crystalline structure contain molecules of solvent.
