This contribution reports the effects of molecular recognition events and solubility on the crystallization of carbamazepine (CBZ) polymorphs from organic solvents. Solvents were chosen on the basis of their hydrogen-bonding potential. Experiments were conducted to (1) measure solubilities and induction times, (2) monitor solution concentrations and solid phase compositions, and (3) identify intermolecular interactions between solvents and CBZ molecules. Primitive monoclinic, CBZ(M), and trigonal, CBZ(Trg), carbamazepine anhydrous polymorphs readily crystallized from the organic solvents. CBZ(Trg) is the metastable form at 25 °C with a solubility approximately 1.2 times that of CBZ(M). Results show that relative nucleation rates of CBZ polymorphs are dependent on the hydrogen-bonding nature of the solvent and are not dependent on solubility. Solvents that primarily accept hydrogen bonds (donor-to-acceptor ratio (d/a) = 0) preferentially crystallized CBZ(Trg), whereas solvents that accept and donate hydrog...
