Abstract A configurational analysis of hydrogen‐bonded aggregates of carboxylic acids and amides has been developed using a notation derived from graph theory. This concept of aggregate structure, independent of crystal structure, is useful for making correlations between intermolecular interactions in different phases, and for comparing physicochemical properties of isostructural aggregates. The analysis also provides a means for assessing the role of intermolecular bonds on the course of reactions or phase transformations which take place in aggregate structures.
