Abstract

We present a discussion of the range of NMR techniques that have been utilized for in-situ monitoring of crystallization processes, highlighting the opportunities that now exist for exploiting the versatility of NMR techniques to reveal insights into the changes that occur in both the solid phase and the liquid phase as a function of time during crystallization processes from solution. New results are presented on: (i) crystallization of glycine from aqueous solution at low temperature, revealing the relatively long-lived existence of a pure phase of the highly meta-stable β polymorph, (ii) the complementarity of 1H→13C cross-polarization NMR and direct-excitation 13C NMR techniques in probing the evolution of the solid and liquid phases in in-situ studies of crystallization processes, (iii) in-situ NMR studies of the process of guest exchange between a crystalline host-guest material in contact with the liquid phase of a more favourable guest molecule, and (iv) systematic studies of the influence of magic-angle sample spinning on the behaviour of a crystallization system.
