Weighted R-factors wR and all goodnesses of fit S are based on F^2^, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F^2^. The observed criterion of F^2^ > 2sigma(F^2^) is used only for calculating _R_factor_obs etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F^2^ are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. ; _refine_ls_structure_factor_coef Fsqd _refine_ls_matrix_type full _refine_ls_weighting_scheme 'calc w=1/[\s^2^(Fo^2^)+(0.0586P)^2^+0.1020P] where P=(Fo^2^+2Fc^2^)/3' _atom_sites_solution_primary Patterson _atom_sites_solution_secondary ? _atom_sites_solution_hydrogens ? _refine_ls_hydrogen_treatment ? _refine_ls_extinction_method SHELXL _refine_ls_extinction_coef 0.0071(24) _refine_ls_extinction_expression 'Fc^*^=kFc[1+0.001xFc^2^\l^3^/sin(2\q)]^-1/4^' _refine_ls_number_reflns 2690 _refine_ls_number_parameters 348 _refine_ls_number_restraints 192 _refine_ls_R_factor_all 0.0641 _refine_ls_R_factor_obs 0.0404 _refine_ls_wR_factor_all 0.1077 _refine_ls_wR_factor_obs 0.0956 _refine_ls_goodness_of_fit_all 1.034 _refine_ls_goodness_of_fit_obs 1.108 _refine_ls_restrained_S_all 1.095 _refine_ls_restrained_S_obs 1.125 _refine_ls_shift/esd_max -0.002 _refine_ls_shift/esd_mean 0.000 loop_ _atom_site_label _atom_site_type_symbol _atom_site_fract_x _atom_site_fract_y _atom_site_fract_z _atom_site_U_iso_or_equiv _atom_site_thermal_displace_type _atom_site_occupancy _atom_site_calc_flag _atom_site_refinement_flags _atom_site_disorder_group S1 S -0.00057(11) 0.57012(11) 0.77346(7) 0.0432(3) Uani 1 d . .
