Changes in the morphology of betulin crystals during heating at selected temperatures corresponding to polymorphic transformations were investigated. It was shown that the prismatic crystals of starting betulin form III were converted into needles at 120 °C after water removal, followed by the III→II polymorphic transformation. During further heating up to 180 °C, the whiskers of betulin form I were grown. Experiments on betulin heating in the presence of dicarboxylic acids, adipic or suberic showed that the morphological changes can serve as a test for the formation of cocrystals. According to morphological changes, the formation of cocrystals of betulin with adipic acid under heating was identified. The interaction of adipic acid vapor with the surface of betulin crystals was suggested. In contrast, morphological changes in the mixture of betulin and suberic acid under heating provided only the evidence of polymorphic transformations of the components. The results on cocrystal formation by heating were compared with the preparation of cocrystals by the liquid-assistance grinding method. Despite the fact that polymorphic forms with a high surface area were formed when betulin was heated, dissolution studies showed that the starting betulin polymorph III exhibited the highest dissolution rate in comparison with betulin polymorphs obtained under heating.
