Abstract

It takes two: The possibility of developing a strategy for the controlled preparation of cocrystals (see picture) with a predesigned structure is demonstrated. It relies on recognizing and utilizing a specific hydrogen-bond pattern, defined in graphset notation (R42(8)), as a supramolecular synthon for the systematic generation of individual four-molecule clusters. (Figure Presented).
