Figure 2
Stereoview of the packing of tetragonal C3bot1 crystals. (a) Perpendicular view of a portion of an `A' layer. (b) In-plane view of the same layer plus adjacent `B' layers. Symmetry-related A molecules are shown in colour, B molecules in grey and secondary-structure elements making crystal-packing contacts are labelled. Cyclic tetrametavanadate and orthovanadate ions are shown in ball-and-stick representation. |
