晶体数据审稿意见-无序和残余峰(NatChem) 案例来源:CCDC[1] 2354667. Nat. Chem. 2024, 17, 38–43. DOI[2]: 10.1038/s41557-024-01669-9. 审稿意见: Compound 4: C38/42should be modelled as disordered. As this is the weakest of the data sets andthere is a single q peak (the largest one) left, is there a possibility that asolvent or anything else is missing in the model? 大意: 化合物4:C38/C42应建模为无序。由于这是数据集中最弱的一个,并且只剩下一个Q峰(最大的那个),所以模型中是否有溶剂或其他任何东西缺失的可能性? ▲图1 问题诉求 结构打开如图2所示(有Olex2[3]),无AB级警报,红圈圈出的都是相似的结构,其中左下角是审稿人提出的需要建模为无序的部分(红色结构式-CMe2CH2CH2CMe2-),但上面两个红色圈出的部分从差值电子密度差值图来看,显然也需要做无序处理。
▲图2 投稿状态 根据差值电子密度图,设计无序方案如图3所示。 ▲图3 无序方案 按照无序方案,对该结构片段实施二组分无序处理,随后用SHELXL[4]指令SAME(参阅推文“SHELXL指令之SAME”)、和SIMU(参阅推文“SHELXL指令之SIMU”)分别对两个无序组分的几何结构和原子各向异性位移参数进行限制,结果如图4所示,-CMe2CH2CH2CMe2-附近差值电子密度图明显正常多了,R1从7.83%降为7.42%。 ▲图4 -CMe2CH2CH2CMe2-无序处理结果 从图3‒4可以看出,最大残余峰Q1处在-PMe3的反向位置,并且差值电子密度图显示P原子可能不是全占位——即意味着-PMe3可能存在取向无序,于是对其进行二组分取向无序,随后用SAME指令(参阅推文“SHELXL指令之SAME”)、和SIMU指令(参阅推文“SHELXL指令之SIMU”)分别对两个无序组分的几何结构和原子各向异性位移参数进行限制,结果如图5所示,残余峰Max Peak从0.9降为0.7,R1从7.42%降为7.14%,wR2从20.60%降为18.45%。 ▲图5 -PMe3二组分无序处理结果 二组分无序处理后,最大残余峰位于C75A附近,于是对-PMe3做了三组分无序处理,如图6所示,R1从7.14%降为6.95%,wR2从18.45%降为18.03%。 ▲图6 -PMe3三组分无序处理结果 运行PLATON-TwinRotMat[5],如图7所示,确实有一个孪晶法则。 ▲图7 PLATON-TwinRotMat检测到的孪晶法则 将该孪晶法则加入精修,结果如图8所示,R1从7.14%降为6.69%,wR2从18.45%降为17.90%。 ▲图8 加入孪晶法则精修的结果 最终,最大残余峰不在-PMe3基团附近。 视频操作演示请参阅: 晶体数据审稿意见-无序和残余峰(NatChem):https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1KdBrYcE3k 如需论文PDF文档和CIF[6]文件,请从以下链接下载: 提取码: eycj 参考文献 [1] (a) Allen, F.
