INSTRUMENTATION

Data collection is performed on a Rigaku RUH2R 12kW rotating anode generator equipped with mercury CCD area detector with RigakuMSC's X-stream 2000 Cryogenic Crystal Cooling System for low temperature capabilities. Data processing and structure determination are performed using RigakuMSC's CrystalClear package (for processing area detector data), RigakuMSC's CrystalStructure package (for structure solution and manipulation) and SHELXL-97 (for least squares refinement).
