Basing our reasoning on the only known and available crystalline structure of a hybrid co-crystal ofcaffeic acid, we extended our study to the analysis of the behaviour of another humic substance, theprotocatechuic acid. The abilities and tendencies of both these compounds to give rise to stable hybridco-crystals with the elements of group I were studied by predicting, via molecular dynamics simulations,their crystalline setups on the basis of a detailed energetic analysis, which allows the detection of themost stable possible structures and their layouts. Without claiming to have performed an ab initio crystalstructure prediction, we tried instead to determine the tendencies of a specific set of humic substancesto give rise to a particular type of hybrid co-crystals.

Abstract
Basing our reasoning on the only known and available crystalline structure of a hybrid co-crystal ofcaffeic acid, we extended our study to the analysis of the behaviour of another humic substance, theprotocatechuic acid. The abilities and tendencies of both these compounds to give rise to stable hybridco-crystals with the elements of group I were studied by predicting, via molecular dynamics simulations,their crystalline setups on the basis of a detailed energetic analysis, which allows the detection of themost stable possible structures and their layouts. Without claiming to have performed an ab initio crystalstructure prediction, we tried instead to determine the tendencies of a specific set of humic substancesto give rise to a particular type of hybrid co-crystals.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
