Abstract

The current interest in the mechanics of crystal structure assembly stems from extensive efforts towards the capability to design or predict crystal structures. This project focuses on the particular feature of non-centrosymmetry in some crystal structures and specifically the assembly of non-centrosymmetric structures by both chiral and achiral molecular systems. To give added focus, a collection of polymorphic ‘clusters’ has been assembled from the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) each of which comprise members of which at least one is a non-centrosymmetric polymorph. The study employs a variety of approaches over and above topology and thus molecular properties such as electrostatic charge distributions and organisation of molecular dipoles have been calculated from ab initio computer modelling techniques. In order to facilitate this kind of study, methods are being investigated in which database interrogation and ensuing property calculations can be achieved in an automated manner.
