In comparison with the previous structure determination of the β-modification of bariumcatena-polyphosphate that was based on Weissenberg film data [Grenieret al.(1967).Bull. Soc. Fr. Minéral. Cristallogr.90, 24–31], the current CCD-data-based redetermination reveals all atoms with anisotropic displacement parameters, standard uncertainties for the atomic coordinates, and the determination of the absolute structure. Moreover, a much higher accuracy in terms of the bond-length distribution for the polyphosphate chain, with two shorter and two longer P—O distances, was achieved. The structure consists of polyphosphate chains extending parallel to [100] with a periodicity of two PO4tetrahedra. The Ba2+cations are located between the chains and are surrounded by ten O atoms in the form of a distorted coordination polyhedron, with Ba—O distances ranging from 2.765 (3) to 3.143 (3) Å, also reflecting the higher precision of the current redetermination.

The absolute structure determination of compounds with axial and planar chirality obtained by recently developed asymmetric syntheses was achieved using the crystalline sponge method without using any reference compounds or synthetic modifications.

Recent studies have confirmed the usefulness of the Hooft and Parsons methodologies for determination of the absolute crystal structures of enantiopure light-atom compounds using CuKα radiation. While many single-crystal diffractometers used for small-molecule structure determination are equipped with molybdenum anodes, use of data from such instruments for the absolute structure determination of light-atom crystal structures is rarely documented and has often been found to be unsuccessful. The Hooft and Parsons methodologies have been applied to 44 data sets obtained from single crystals containing light-atom molecules of known chirality using Mo Kαradiation. Several factors influencing the calculation of accurate and precise values for the Hooft and Parsons parameters obtained from these data sets have been identified, the inclusion of high-resolution diffraction data being particularly important. The correct absolute structure was obtained in all cases, with the standard uncertainties of the final absolute structure parameters below 0.1 for the great majority.

There is no unique index that measures the size of the distortion found in a coordination polyhedron because different indices can result in a different ordering depending on the mode of the distortion (i.e. the third and higher moments of the bond-length distribution). This paper proposes the increase in the average bond length as a suitable index as this is directly related to the increase in volume of the coordination polyhedron and hence of the unit cell. Some examples are discussed.

The crystal structure of γ-TeO2was redetermined on the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The previous structure determination of this modification was based on laboratory powder X-ray diffraction data [Champarnaud-Mesjardet al.(2000).J. Phys. Chem. Solids,61, 1499–1507]. The current redetermination revealed all atoms with anisotropic displacement parameters, accompanied with a much higher accuracy and precision in terms of bond lengths and angles, and the determination of the absolute structure. The crystal structure consists of TeO4bisphenoids that combine through corner-sharing of all their oxygen atoms into a three-dimensional framework.
