Abstract :
In this paper the calculation of intermolecular interaction energy based onGavezzotti–Filippinisemi-empirical method was performed for the series ofα,ω-diols. Theinitialstructural data wereretrievedfrom the Cambridge Structural Database.For eachstructure,thecritical coordinationnumber and the molecular coordination number were calculated.The interrelationship between thecoordination numbers and the local regularity of a crystal wasalsodiscussed.
