AbstractThe electron density (ED) of a substituted 4-(indol-3-yl)-quinazoline, a newly developed anti-cancer drug, was determined from a high resolution X-ray data set measured at 100 K using synchrotron radiation. Because the structure contains a chlorine atom, which has a diffuse outer electron shell and is therefore beyond standard modeling, the influence of the model on the bond topological and atomic properties was studied following Bader's approach of ‘Atoms In Molecules’ (AIM). The expansion/contraction parameters

The electron density of the C70 fullerene C70(C2F5)10 was determined from a high-resolution X-ray data set measured with synchrotron radiation (beamline F1 of Hasylab/DESY, Germany) at a temperature of 100 K. With 140 atoms in the asymmetric unit this fullerene belongs to the largest problems examined until now by electron density methods. Using the QTAIM formalism quantitative bond topological and atomic properties have been derived and compared with the results of theoretical calculations on the title compound and on free C70

Abstract The charge density of the tripeptide L-alanyl-glycyl-L-alanine was determined from three X-ray data sets measured at different experimental setups and under different conditions. Two of the data sets were measured with synchrotron radiation (beamline F1 of Hasylab/DESY, Germany and beamline X10SA of SLS, Paul-Scherer-Institute, Switzerland) at temperatures around 100 K while a third data set was measured under home laboratory conditions (MoKα radiation) at a low temperature of 20 K. The multipole refinement strategy to derive the experimental charge density was the same in all cases, so that the obtained charge density properties could directly be compared. While the general analysis of the three data sets suggested a small preference for one of the synchrotron data sets (Hasylab F1), a comparison of topological and atomic properties gave in no case an indication for a preference of any of the three data sets. It follows that even the 4 h data set measured at the SLS performed equally well compared to the data sets of substantially longer exposure time.

Structure factors for small synthetic crystals of the C-type rare earth (RE) sesquioxides Y2O3, Dy2O3 and Ho2O3 were measured with focused λ = 0.7000 (2) Å, synchrotron X-radiation, and for Ho2O3 were re-measured with an MoKα (λ = 0.71073 Å) source. Approximate symmetry in the deformation electron density (Δρ) around a RE atom with pseudo-octahedral O coordination matches the cation geometry. Interactions between heavy metal atoms have a pronounced effect on the Δρ map. The electron-density symmetry around a second RE atom is also perturbed significantly by cation–anion interactions. The compounds magnetic properties reflect this complexity.

The highly-collimated, intense X-rays produced by a synchrotron radiation source can be harnessed to build high-resolution powder diffraction instruments with a wide variety of applications. The general advantages of using synchrotron radiation for powder diffraction are discussed and illustrated with reference to the structural characterisation of crystalline materials, atomic PDF analysis, in-situ and high-throughput studies where the structure is evolving between successive scans, and the measurement of residual strain in engineering components.

Tannase catalyses the hydrolysis of the galloyl ester bond of tannins to release gallic acid. It belongs to the serine esterases and has wide applications in the food, feed, beverage, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. The tannase fromLactobacillus plantarumwas cloned, expressed and purified. The protein was crystallized by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method with microseeding. The crystals belonged to space groupP1, with unit-cell paramtersa= 46.5,b= 62.8,c= 83.8 Å, α = 70.4, β = 86.0, γ = 79.4°. Although the enzyme exists mainly as a monomer in solution, it forms a dimer in the asymmetric unit of the crystal. The crystals diffracted to beyond 1.60 Å resolution using synchrotron radiation and a complete data set was collected to 1.65 Å resolution.
