What the paper reports

MicroED determined a powder-derived cocrystal of 2-aminopyrimidine and succinic acid prepared by solid-state grinding. The mechanically generated phase was not accessible through the solution-crystallization route examined. This is a model organic cocrystal rather than an API efficacy study, illustrating how electron diffraction can characterize crystal-engineering products without first recreating them as large solution-grown crystals.

Why this paper is included

Relevant to mechanochemical solid-form development, while the model-system scope should remain clear when extrapolating to pharmaceutical cocrystal programs.

The interpretation above is analysis, not a conclusion attributed to the original source.
