Polymorphism, the occurrence of different crystal forms, is a property of some molecules and molecular complexes. A single molecule, like moxifloxacin, may give rise to a variety of crystalline forms having distinct crystal structures and physical properties like melting point, x-ray diffraction pattern, infrared absorption fingerprint, and solid state NMR spectrum. One crystalline form may give rise to thermal behaviors different from that of another crystalline form. Thermal behavior can be measured in the laboratory by such techniques as capillary melting point, thermo gravimetric analysis ("TGA"), and differential scanning calorimetry ("DSC"), which have been used to distinguish polymorphic forms.
The difference in the physical properties of different crystalline forms results from the orientation and intermolecular interactions of adjacent molecules or complexes
in the bulk solid. Accordingly, polymorphs are distinct solids sharing the same molecular formula yet having distinct advantageous physical properties compared to other crystalline forms of the same compound or complex.
One of the important physical properties of pharmaceutical compounds is their solubility in aqueous solution, particularly their solubility in the gastric juices of a patient. For example, where absorption through the gastrointestinal stomach or intestine to dissolve slowly so that it does not accumulate in a deleterious environment. Different crystalline forms or polymorphs of the same pharmaceutical compounds can and reportedly do have different aqueous solubilities.
