What is it about?
Pyridine or quinoline participate to form guest with dicarboxylic acids and act as supramolecular host for the respective compounds.

Why is it important?
Underlying concepts are : (a) Guest participating with another system to construct host to include the guest. (b) Such a process can enhance guest in take of comparable size partner molecules. (c) More possibilities to vary stoichiometry leading to multi-component systems. (d) Different types of cocrystals have different physico-chemical properties. (e) Contributes to realm of symmetry non-equivalence and high Z' value systems.
Perspectives
For recognition and uptake of more amount of partner molecules by host system of comparable these examples can be guideline.
