    Abstract The co-crystallization approach has been used to enhance specific desirable properties of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) such as solubility, dissolution rate, and stability. Solubility is a fundamental property that affects the bioavailability and dosage of the API. The co-crystal approach is one of the emerging methods with the potential for improving the solubility of these drugs. This paper reviews the latest progress on improving the solubility of some antidiabetic drug molecules using the co-crystal approach.

    Abstract Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death from a single infectious agent globally. Some of the early research on TB treatment indicated drug resistance as one of the key challenges in fighting this disease. The discovery that administering two or more drugs simultaneously could lead to much more effective treatment, with reduced drug resistance and shorter periods of chemotherapy, was, therefore, a very significant breakthrough in TB drug research. Pursuant to this discovery, the World Health Organisation (WHO) recommended TB treatment employing fixed-dose combinations (FDCs) containing first line anti-TB drugs; rifampicin, isoniazid, pyrazinamide, streptomycin and ethambutol. Regardless, certain challenges associated with FDCs remain and these include chemical instability and reduced bioavailability of rifampicin. Therefore, some research effort has been directed towards finding ways to deal with these challenges. One such effort involves the use of pharmaceutical co-crystals of the active pharmaceutical ingredients. Consequently, several pharmaceutical co-crystals of isoniazid and pyrazinamide have been reported. This paper aims at reviewing the multicomponent crystal structures of two first-line anti-TB drugs; isoniazid and pyrazinamide. The review will first set out a brief history of the disease, milestones in TB chemotherapy and the challenges associated with current treatment regimens. This will then be followed by a brief introduction to pharmaceutical co-crystals and how they can improve the physical and chemical properties of the active pharmaceutical ingredients. Secondly, multicomponent crystals of the two active pharmaceutical ingredients will be analysed by manual inspection for common supramolecular synthons between the drug molecules as well as between drug molecules and co-formers. Lastly; stability, solubility and dissolution experiments carried out on the pharmaceutical co-crystals of pyrazinamide and isoniazid will be analysed to gain insights into progress made with regards to improving stability and solubility of the active pharmaceutical ingredients.

    Abstract Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are an important class of porous materials with numerous potential applications. Molecular level understanding of various processes involving MOFs is very important in order to design porous materials with improved properties. Here we describe the elucidation by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCD) of three different phases of Zn2(bdc)2(bpy) at different pressures of CO2. Moreover, this is a rare example where new space is created in the structure under gas pressure – space that was not previously occupied by guest molecules in any of the related structures. In addition to in situ SCD and sorption analysis, pressure-gradient differential scanning calorimetry (PG-DSC) provides very useful information about the system. This study represents the first instance where PG-DSC has been used to study the sorption behavior of a flexible porous framework.
