HOT Article: Crystal engineering lead molecules in drug design

In this HOT article, scientists from Dublin, Ireland have directed their research towards integrating crystal structure analyses with computational (ab initio) modelling methods and exploring the influence and positional influence of different functional groups e.g. N/F/Cl/Br/I atoms, Me/OMe in semi-rigid drug-like molecules on inter- and intramolecular interactions, conformations and solid-state packing.
