Abstract

On the basis of the pKa equalization principle, the strongest hydrogen bonds are associated with a very low ΔpKa value, i.e. the difference between donor and acceptor acidic constants. [1] The ΔpKa value associated with a general D—H∙∙∙A interaction is calculated as ΔpKa (D—H∙∙∙A ) = pKAH (D—H) ─ pK+BH(A—H+) is applied to correlate the wide range O∙∙∙N distance distribution to chemical diversity, expressed in terms of acidity constant, displayed by the conformer molecules in Phloroglucinol (PHL) cocrystals and pyridoxime (vitamin B6) molecular salts. [2,3]. The presented crystal structure packing motifs between cocrystallized, both neutral N-heterocycles coformers and O-type of acidic drug model (PHL), as well between protonated and non-protonated N-heterocycle (pyridine type of drug model pyridoxine) and aromatic carboxylic acids confirm that the bond distances correlate to the nature of the hydrogen bond in range from week charge-assisted H-bonds in PHL/N-heterocycles cocrystals (ΔpKa < 0), toward the so-called “salt–cocrystal continuum” in unprotonated pyridine derivative (ΔpKa 0 – 1), till to formation strong charge-assisted H-bonds in molecular salts of the same protonated pyridine (ΔpKa > 3).
