Advances in Organic Crystal Chemistry

This book summarizes and records the recent notable advances in diverse topics in organic crystal chemistry, which has made substantial progress along with the rapid development of a variety of analysis and measurement techniques for solid organic materials. This volume follows previously published volumes that are prepared periodically, at least every 5 years, with contributions by prominent authors in Japan and from abroad. The first volume was published in 2015, which systematically summarized the remarkable progress in assorted topics of organic crystal chemistry using organic solids and organicinorganic hybrid materials. The second volume, published in 2020, presented advances in organic solid-state chemistry mainly from 2016 to 2020. The present volume also shows the progress of organic solid-state chemistry, especially focusing on crystal growth and crystal structure design that has been achieved mainly in the last 5 years or so. Crystal growth and crystal structure design described in this book is helpful for not only readers who study organic crystals but also those who study inorganic crystals, materials chemistry, coordination chemistry, and organometallic chemistry.

Provides a comprehensive review of state-of-the-art research on organic crystal chemistry Includes in-depth discussions on crystal growth and crystal structure design Covers a vast array of special topics as the 3rd volume in periodical series publication every 5 years
