We present for the first time a peculiar concentration effect on competitive adsorption of a binary mixture at the liquid/solid interface, which we attribute to the existence of pseudopolymorphism and its concentration dependence. These results are helpful for the understanding of phase behavior of multi-component systems at the interface.

Article Synopsis
- A new droplet-based microfluidic platform is developed to investigate the nucleation kinetics of calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM), which is linked to kidney stones, while monitoring transitions between different forms.
- The research analyzes how factors like supersaturation levels, pH, and inhibitors like magnesium ions and osteopontin impact the rate at which COM forms.
- Results show that pH significantly affects nucleation rates, with lower pH leading to slower kinetics; additionally, osteopontin is more effective at inhibiting COM nucleation than magnesium, revealing the important role of macromolecules in kidney stone formation.

Atomic-level characterization of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) is crucial in pharmaceutical industry because APIs play an important role in physicochemical properties of drug formulations. However, the analysis of targeted APIs in intact tablet formulations is less straightforward due to the coexistence of excipients as major components and different APIs at dilute concentrations (often below 10 wt% loading). Although solid-state (ss) NMR spectroscopy is widely used to investigate short-range order, polymorphism, and pseudo-polymorphism in neat pharmaceutical compounds, the analysis of complex drug formulations is often limited by overlapped signals that originate from structurally different APIs and excipients.

Rebamipide is marketed as a peptic ulcer agent under the trade name Mucosta(R). The objective of this work was to investigate the existence of polymorphs and pseudopolymorphs of rebamipide. Two crystal forms of rebamipide were isolated by recrystallization and characterized by differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetric analysis (TG), powder X-ray diffractometry, infrared spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance.

Two types of Pt2Pb luminescent clusters were successfully prepared by the reaction of [Pt(C6F5)(bzq)(OCMe2)] (1) and [Pt(C6F5)(ppy)(dmso)] (2) with [Pb(SpyR-5)2] (R = H, CF3). Thus, whereas 5 (ppy, Spy) is generated through coordination of the pyridine-N atoms to the Pt centers, the formation of 3, 4 (bzq), and 6 (ppy, SpyCF3) is accompanied by a formal thiolate transfer from Pb(II) to Pt(II), keeping the two N atoms in the primary environment of the lead. In 5, the neutral Pb center adopts a rather stable and symmetrical "Pt2S2" coordination sphere supplemented by two Pb··Fo contacts, whereas for the remaining species several pseudopolymorphs were found depending on the solvent (3, 4) and crystallization conditions (6).

The distinct control of the synthesis parameters achieved crystallization of five new inorganic-organic hybrid tin sulfides with 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) as the organic component: {[Mn(phen)2]2(μ2-Sn2S6)} (1, 3), {[Mn(phen)2]2(μ2-Sn2S6)}·phen (2), {[Mn(phen)2]2(μ2-Sn2S6)}·phen·H2O (4), and {[Mn(phen)2]2[μ-η(2)-η(2)-SnS4]2[Mn(phen)]2}·H2O (5). Compounds 1, 3, and 4 occur successively under static conditions by increasing the reaction time up to 8 weeks. Stirring the reaction mixtures and keeping the educt ratio constant allow preparation of distinct phase pure samples within very short reaction times.
