	abstract = {<p>Racemic 2,4(6)-di-O-benzoyl-myo-inositol 1,3,5-orthoformate, C21H18O8, (1), shows a very efficient intermolecular benzoyl-group migration reaction in its crystals. However, the presence of 4,4 {\textquoteleft}-bipyridine molecules in its cocrystal, C21H18O8 center dot C10H8N2, (1)center dot BP, inhibits the intermolecular benzoyl-group transfer reaction. In (1), molecules are assembled around the crystallographic twofold screw axis (b axis) to form a helical self-assembly through conventional O-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen-bonding interactions. This helical association places the reactive C6-O-benzoyl group (electrophile, El) and the C4-hydroxy group (nucleophile, Nu) in proximity, with a preorganized El center dot center dot center dot Nu geometry favourable for the acyl transfer reaction. In the cocrystal (1)center dot BP, the dibenzoate and bipyridine molecules are arranged alternately through OH center dot center dot center dot N interactions. The presence of the bipyridine molecules perturbs the regular helical assembly of the dibenzoate molecules and thus restricts the solid-state reactivity. Hence, unlike the parent dibenzoate crystals, the cocrystals do not exhibit benzoyl-transfer reactions. This approach is useful for increasing the stability of small molecules in the crystalline state and could find application in the design of functional solids.</p>},

	abstract = {<p>2,3-Dihydroxynaphthalene forms 2:1 cocrystals with its p-ditoluate and 1:1 cocrystals with its m-ditoluate but not with the o-ditoluate. In 2:1 cocrystals of the p-ditoluate, naphthalene diol molecules form a dimeric motif through OH...O hydrogen bonding interactions. The adjacent dimers sandwich the molecules of p-ditoluate through C-H...pi interactions. In 1:1 cocrystals of the m-ditoluate, naphthalene diol molecules generate a zigzag pattern through O-H...O hydrogen bonding interaction involving -OH of the diol and the C=O of the m-ditoluate. Intermolecular toluoyl group transfer reaction was more facile in cocrystals of the p-ditoluate as compared to cocrystals of the m-ditoluate. This difference in reactivity is consistent with the relative geometry of the electrophile (El, C-O) and the nucleophile (Nu, OH) in these cocrystals. A comparison of the cocrystallization behavior and structure of the two cocrystals with their constituents suggests that the position of the methyl group is crucial for cocrystal formation. A survey of the CSD revealed that the incidence of polymorphism and cocrystals formation decreases (number of hits) in the order para- \&gt; ortho- \&gt; meta- for disubstituted benzene derivatives. This suggests that compounds prone to exhibit polymorphism have more propensities to form cocrystals as compared to those that resist polymorphism. This information could be useful while selecting cocrystal formers and construction of supramolecular functional assemblies with desired properties.</p>},

	abstract = {Reactions in solids are of contemporary interest due to applications in pharmaceutical industries to environmental sustainability. Although several reactive crystals that support chemical reactions have been identified and characterized, the same cannot be said about reactive cocrystals. Earlier we correlated the facile acyl group transfer reactions in crystals with supramolecular parameters obtained from the crystal structures. The structure-reactivity correlation revealed the requirement of proper juxtaposition of electrophile (C=O) and the nucleophile (OH) with distance (similar to 3.2 angstrom) and angle (similar to 90 degrees) along the chain structure. The current article describes the preparation of cocrystals that are capable of supporting intermolecular acyl group transfer reactions in a group of structurally similar molecules. The cocrystals of naphthalene 2,3-diol and its corresponding diesters showed a facile solid state acyl transfer reaction, which has been well correlated with their crystal structures.},
