Abstract
Seven new multicomponent crystals, including one hydrate, one solvate, one molecular salt, and four cocrystals, consisting of 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid with various coformers were synthesized and presented. These coformers include 2-acetylpyridine, 3-cyanopyridine, flufenamic acid, dimethylaminobenzophenone, pyridoxine, theophylline, and thiourea. Both hydrogen-bonding and weaker intermolecular forces such as C-H···πbonding, π-hole, and π···πcontribute significantly to the overall packing scheme of each structure. Hirshfeld surfaces were used to identify these intermolecular forces. These structures were compared to those in the literature using the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). These multicomponent crystals were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
