Data Collection

Coverage vs. time Never make the assumption you know the symmetry from the unit cell alone! Process the data and determine coverage and completeness before the crystal comes off the diffractometer.

Unit Cell Determination

Threshold

Identifying problems –Good number of reflection match, but many more predicted spots than actual spots observed. –Poor number of reflections match but predicted spots all lie on a spot. (i.e. 0.1 = 50%, 0.2 = 70%, 0.3 = 80%) –Cell does not make sense for expected system –Two cells appear drastically different (doubled cell, or no way to transform from one to the other) –Failed to find a cell Unit Cell Determination

RLATT

Unit Cell Determination Cell now –Command line program, run from your work folder. –Call cell_now –t from command line, the –t flag allows cell now to output your reflections in different groups to be viewed in different colors back in APEX2.

Integration

Files Created: –*.raw (.mul or.ram) These are the reduced format files of your data. –*._ls These files contain the summary information of the integration. Important information is contained within. –*0m.p4p This is the updated file containing unit cell information as well as orientation information.

Integration When things go wrong

Absorption Correction SADABS provides useful diagnostics and can correct for errors such as variation in the volume of the crystal irradiated, incident beam inhomogeneity, absorption by the crystal support (e.g. when the goniometer head passes under the collimator during an omega scan on a Bruker Platform goniometer), and crystal decay, as well as improving the esds of the intensities, so it is strongly recommended that it is used to process ALL data, whether or not absorption is significant. These corrections also enable larger crystals to be used for weakly diffracting crystals without introducing systematic errors; for an impressive example, see C.H. Görbitz, Acta Cryst. B55 (1999)

Absorption Correction APEX2-Scale

Absorption Correction Command Line – SADABS –Divided into 3 parts 1.Input of data and modeling of absorption and other systematic errors. 2.Error analysis and derivation of ‘correct’ standard uncertainties for the corrected intensities. 3.Output of Postscript diagnostic plots and corrected data. !!Almost all answers can and should be entered with !!

Absorption Correction Command Line – TWINABS –Similar to SADABS; however, only can be run from command line. –When integration is run with more than one component, it produces.mul files, these are the same as.raw files but have batch numbers to identify multiple components. TWINABS uses these. –TWINABS will produce two files, an HKLF 4 and HKLF 5 file. –It is important to run your data through XPREP before using TWINABS to determine whether or not there is a change in orientation of your unit cell. TWINABS will need this. !! AS WITH SADABS, IS USUALLY THE BEST ANSWER!!

XPREP XPREP is primarily a tool for setting up the files to continue forward with structure solution and subsequently refinement. (i.e. *.ins creation) One very important file is created unknowingly by XPREP, the *.pcf file. This file contains useful items for insertion into your completed *.cif file. Pay attention to the header before and after you run through the program, make sure if your axes have changed around, you are aware of this. A *.prp file is also created, which is a summary of what you did in XPREP.

XPREP Determining resolution Mean I/s > 2 Rmerge > 0.25 *If resolution <> 0.83, Rmerge criteria can be more flexible. (i.e. ~0.3) Make sure data quality isn’t drastically going up and then down reevaluate your data to see if there is something wrong. !!THIS SHOULD BE DONE BEFORE FINAL INTEGRATION!!

Structure Solution Structure solution is the first step of determining the structure of a crystal; however, the majority of the work done on the structure is actually structural refinement. The solution would in essence be the inverse FT to generate a density MAP from the diffraction pattern; however, because we cannot measure the phase information of the structure factors, we have to use other methods to “guess” the phase. Peak picking algorithms identify density maxima and present them for visualization in an easy manner.

Structure Solution Command line – XT/XS –Two main programs in the Bruker Suite for initial structure solution XS – direct methods structure solution XT – newer intrinsic phasing method –Extremely powerful, contains a ‘free lunch’ algorithm

Structure Solution APEX2 – Structure Solution – Intrinsic Phasing/Direct Methods –These are XT/XS respectively

Final Comments R1 is not everything Not every crystal will be publishable for every task Don’t be afraid to ask for help Don’t spend weeks to months on a difficult refinement that could have been fixed by correctly collecting data… however… don’t be surprised when a refinement takes weeks to months.
