• proven useful for the structural characterization of crystalline organic solids and which requires minimal sample preparation [29]. Pleasingly, analysis of the milled mixture (1c + NFSI) by PXRD evidenced the existence of diffraction reflections corresponding to crystalline (PhSO2)2NH, (PhSO2)2NCH3, and

• by crystallization at room temperature, using dichloromethane as solvent. Results We opted for a benzene derivative for our first foray into organic solids to be encapsulated in TAA crystals, because a number of benzene derivatives have been found in EnOCs in the past [13][14][15]. Phenol was

• structures presented here suggest that even for readily crystallizing organic compounds co-crystals can be the favored outcome of crystallization from a solution in a good, but volatile solvent. This makes it interesting to pursue co-crystallization as a means to obtain crystals of other organic solids that

• high is not entirely easy to understand. Mobilities in liquid crystals are usually intermediate between those measured in crystalline and amorphous organic solids, and the mobility is primarily related to the degree of positional [40][41][42][43][44] or charge [45][46] disorder within the system.

• hydrogen bonding can perturb packing in organic solids. Kitaigorodskii posits that organic molecules in crystalline phases fill space nearly as efficiently as close-packed spheres ~0.74 [35]. This occurs when the dimples and bumps of one molecule spatially correspond with the bumps and dimples of a lattice
