H atoms were positioned geometrically, with C---H = 0.93 and 0.96 \%A for
aromatic and methyl H atoms, respectively, and constrained to ride on their
parent atoms, with <i>U</i>~iso~(H) = xUeq(C), where <i>x</i> = 1.5 for methyl
H and <i>x</i> = 1.2 for aromatic H atoms. The highest peak is located 1.10 \%A
from atom Cl1.

All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes)
are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken
into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles
and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only
used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic)
treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s.
planes.
