✦ Synopsis


Combined 15 N ssNMR and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) investigations for theophylline, a theophylline co-crystal, and a theophyllinium salt demonstrate that XPS allows direct observation of the degree of proton transfer, and thus identification of whether a salt or a co-crystal has been formed. The presence of a strongly binding-energy-shifted N 1s XPS peak with protonation indicates a salt (C --NH þ ), while this peak is unmistakably absent in the co-crystal. XPS should be considered as an alternative and complementary technique to single crystal X-ray diffraction and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (ssNMR).
