aF is a least-squares fitting parameter defined as F2=1Ni=1Nk6(Data - Model)2

bCoordination numbers are generally considered accurate to ±25%

cIn any one fit, the statistical error in bond-lengths is ±0.005 Å. However, when errors due to imperfect background subtraction, phase-shift calculations, and noise in the data are compounded, the actual error is probably closer to ±0.02 Å

dFits included both single and multiple scattering contributions from the imidazole ring
