description | In the title 1:1 cocrystal, C7H8N4O2·C7H6O4, the anti-asthmatic drug theophylline (systematic name: 1,3-dimethyl-7H-purine-2,6-dione) and a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, gentisic acid (systematic name: 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid) crystallize together, forming two-dimensional hydrogen-bonded sheets involving N—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds. The overall crystal packing features π–π stacking interactions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.348 (1) Å]. The cocrystal described herein belongs to the class of pharmaceutical cocrystals involving two active pharmaceutical ingredients which has been relatively unexplored to date. |
