The PLATON/TwinRotMat Tool for Twinning Detection Ton Spek National Single Crystal Service Facility, Utrecht University, The Netherlands. Delft, 29-Sept-2008

Viewpoints on Twinning (I) Macroscopic - Mineralogy - Intergrowth Microscopic - Extinction pattern under polarized light Ways of Formation - Deformation, Growth, Pressure, T Molecular level - Local Pseudo Symmetry

Viewpoints on Twinning (II) Data collection Processing Procedures Refinement Procedures Detection of Twinning Twinning Matrix See:

Twinning Symptoms Not all reflections fit in a single lattice Statistics small etc. Problems to solve the structure Poor refinement wR2 >> 2 * R1 Ghost peaks at chemically impossible positions. High value of the second Wght parameter Fobs >> Fcalc for a large number of reflections Etc.

Twinning Matrix (I) Non-Merohedral Twins Partially overlapped reciprocal lattices Problem now largely solved with current area detector images (CCD) Twinning Matrix from indexing software (Dirax, CellNow etc.) Adequate integration software (HKLF 5)

Twinning Matrix (II) (Pseudo)-Merohedral Twins: Overlapping Lattices (Lattice symmetry >> Symmetry of the Structure) Symmetry elements of the lattice but not of the structure are possible twinning laws. Coset Decomposition  Possible Twin laws to be tested H.D.Flack (1987). J. Appl. Cryst. A43,

Twinning Matrix (III) Diagnostic analysis of Fo/Fc CIF ROTAX (Simon Parsons & B. Gould) Lists possible twin laws from analysis of poorly fitting reflections with Fobs >> Fcalc in.fcf Cooper et al., (2002). J.Appl.Cryst., 35, PLATON/TwinRotMat Automatically lists the applicable twin law(s) + predicted BASF & R-drop(s)(from.cif &.fcf data)

TwinRotMat Example (I) Study of the structure of cyclohexanone oxime. (ZZZVPO) Originally published as disordered in P3 with R = 9.25 %.(Acta Cryst. (2001),B57,705) But no signs of disorder in the diffraction data. Alternative not disordered solution in Space Group P-3. Refinement with three independent oxime molecules converged to an unsatisfactorily R= 20%. ORTEP 

P-3 R = 20% Model

TwinRotMat Example (II) Noisy difference map etc. H’s on O not found Twinning ? Run PLATON/TwinRotMat on the CIF/FCF of the converged R = 20% model.

TwinRotMat Example (III) Result: (shown in next slide). Twin law with an estimate of the twinning fraction and the estimated drop in R-value when applied Note: - Green entries indicate significant R-drop

TwinRotMat Example (IV) An HKLF5 file can be generated by clicking on ‘HKLF5-gener’ after selecting the matrices to be used. or TWIN/BASF refinement with the proposed matrix. Display the overlap of the two lattices related by the twin law (2-fold axis parallel to c) as viewed down the c-axes.

P-3 55:45 twin R=3.44

Ideas behind the Algorithm Reflections effected by twinning show-up in the least-squares refinement with F(obs) >> F(calc) Overlapping reflections necessarily have the same Theta value within a certain tolerance. Generate a list of implied possible twin axes based on the above observations. Test each proposed twin law for its effect on R.

Possible Twin Axis H H’ H” = H + H’ Strong reflection H’ with theta close to theta of reflection H Candidate twinning axis (Normalize !) Reflection with F(obs) >> F(calc)

What about trillings ? Example: [PrFe(CN) 6 (H 2 O) 2 ].2H 2 O Langer et al. (2004).Acta Cryst., C60,1104. Space group Cmcm (R-int = 0.15) Pseudo hexagonal (R-int = 0.16) Refinement (via model in P21 etc.) in Cmcm with TWIN – R = 0.017, wR2 = Fractions: 0.6, 0.2, 0.2

TwinRotMat Analysis Starting model is the published structure in Cmcm without twinning. R = 0.15, wR2 = 0.37 Large residual density peaks. TwinRotMat 

HKLF 5 Generation Use the two rotations about the proposed direct lattice directions [1 1 0] & [1 –1 0] They have a slightly better overlap than the corresponding reciprocal lattice directions [1 3 0]* & [1 –3 0]* See overlap in reciprocal space 

Refinement Results Based on HKLF5 file with two matrices R = 0.02 Twin parts 0.6, 0.2, 0.2 Thus equivalent with the thrilling description.

FCF-VALIDATION Forthcoming: Automatic twinning detection as part of the IUCr CheckCif procedure -Detection of ignored twinning -Detection of Applied Twinning Correction without being reported (Already available via PLATON/Check)

Example of Unreported Twinning (I) Sadiq-ur-Rehman et al. (2008). Acta Cryst. E64, e26 & (2007). E63, m2329. Sn 3 (CH 3 ) 9 Cl(NO 3 ) reinterpreted as Sn 3 (CH 3 ) 9 Cl(CO 3 ) But: Still no mention of twinning ! In the paper nor in the CIF (although a correction for twinning was applied) No CIF datanames defined yet for twinning CIF/FCF Validation  ALERT

Example of Unreported Twinning (II)

Residual Problems Getting a Preliminary Model from a (pseudo-)merohedrally twinned dataset Integrated data corresponding to a larger twin lattice rather than the smaller lattice of the structure (e.g. oC mP) (Sometimes, but not always showing non space group extinctions)

Concluding Remarks TwinRotMat Points to the effective twin laws to be included in the structure refinement given a partially refined structure model Offers a diagnostic tool for possibly missed twinning as part crystal structure validation Nowadays possibly less important for the detection of non-merohedral twinning (CCD) (But cases of missed non-merohedral twinning still arrive for publication)
