Abstract

The cocrystallization of lamotrigine and valproic acid affords an ionic cocrystal with improved dissolution rate and mechanical properties. The multidrug crystal has a stoichiometry that is known to positively impact the pharmacokinetics of the parent compounds. As such, the new form is a suitable epileptic treatment. From a crystal engineering perspective, the structure is sustained by a complex multimolecular motif that includes each conformer in both the protonated and deprotonated state. Statistical and computational analysis reveals that the presence of ancillary H-bond donors in an R1²(4)DD (or R2²(8)DD) fashion is critical to the ionization state of the components.
