Accepted 9 November 2009

Ab initio structure determination of phase II of racemic ibuprofen by X-ray powder diffraction

P. Derollez, E. Dudognon, F. Affouard, F. Danède, N. T. Correia and M. Descamps

Synopsis: The crystal structure of phase II of racemic ibuprofen was solved ab initio from X-ray powder diffraction. Rietveld refinements were achieved with rigid-body constraints for the phenyl group and soft restraints on the other interatomic bond lengths and bond angles.


Accepted 3 November 2009

Structure solution of Li4Ti8Ni3O21 using precession electron diffraction

M. Gemmi, H. Klein, A. Rageau, P. Strobel and F. Le Cras

Synopsis: The structure of the new titanate Li4Ti8Ni3O21 has been solved using precession electron diffraction. The refinement with synchrotron powder diffraction confirms the validity of the model and allows us to understand how Li, Ni and Ti are arranged over the cation sites.


Accepted 30 October 2009

Zur Kristallchemie von Graphen und Graphit

M. Trömel

Synopsis: The evidence of graphene being formed from pentavalent carbon augments the exceptional properties of this two-dimensional crystal.
