| Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes. |
| Refinement. A colorless crystal of approximate dimensions 0.255 x 0.332 x 0.391 mm was mounted in a cryoloop and transferred to a Bruker SMART APEX II diffractometer. The APEX2 program package was used to determine the unit-cell parameters and for data collection (15 sec/frame scan time for a sphere of diffraction data). The raw frame data was processed using SAINT and SADABS to yield the reflection data file. Subsequent calculations were carried out using the SHELXTL program. There were no systematic absences nor any diffraction symmetry other than the Friedel condition. The centrosymmetric triclinic space group P-1 was assigned and later determined to be correct.The structure was solved by dual space methods and refined on F2 by full-matrix least-squares techniques. The analytical scattering factors for neutral atoms were used throughout the analysis. Hydrogen atoms were included using a riding model. Atom C(5) was disordered and included using multiple components with partial site-occupancy-factors.Least-squares analysis yielded wR2 = 0.0609 and Goof = 1.042 for 406 variables refined against 8460 data (0.74Å), R1 = 0.0239 for those 7562 data with I > 2.0sigma(I). |
