Abstract

Correction for ‘A crystalline solid adduct of sulfathiazole–amantadine: the first dual-drug molecular salt containing both antiviral and antibacterial ingredients’ by Ling-Yang Wang et al., CrystEngComm, 2020, 22, 3804–3813, https://doi.org/10.1039/D0CE00368A.


The authors wish to draw the reader's attention to their closely related paper, published at nearly the same time in Crystal Growth & Design,1 which should have been cited in this CrystEngComm paper.

This CrystEngComm paper reports the formation of a molecular salt of amantadine–sulfathiazole prepared via a salification strategy, whereas ref. 1 reports the formation of an amantadine hydrochloride–sulfathiazole co-crystal through a cocrystallization strategy. Therefore, although both papers report different cocrystallization and salification strategies, ref. 1 should have been cited in this CrystEngComm article.

There is also an error in the caption of Fig. 5. The correct caption is shown below.

Fig. 5 XRPD comparisons of (a) ATD, (b) SFZ, and the (c) experimental and (d) simulated patterns of SFZ-ATD.

In addition, the FTIR spectrum of amantadine (ATD) presented in Fig. S1(a) was incorrect. The correct FTIR spectrum is provided in the revised supporting information with the original article.

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
