ResumoThe lattice energy Elatt of the two-component crystals (three co-crystals, a salt, and a hydrate) is evaluated using two schemes. The first one is based on the total energy of the crystal and its components computed using the solid-state density functional theory method with the plane-wave basis set. The second approach explores intermolecular energies estimated using the bond critical point parameters obtained from the Bader analysis of crystalline electron density or the pairwise potentials. The Elatt values of two-component crystals are found to be lower or equal to the sum of the absolute sublimation enthalpies of the pure components. The computed energies of the supramolecular synthons vary from ∼80 to ∼30 kJ/mol and decrease in the following order: acid–amide > acid–pyridine > hydroxyl–acid > amide–amide > hydroxyl–pyridine. The contributions from different types of noncovalent interactions to the Elatt value are analyzed. We found that at least 50% of the lattice energy comes from the heterosynthon and a few relatively strong H-bonds between the heterodimer and the adjacent molecules.
