OVERVIEW
• Correct space group assignment to a crystal structure is not always trivial.
• As a result, many (uncorrected) errors can be found in the literature and databases.
• Some errors are harmful others are of a more esthetic nature.
• Bob Sparks was addressing this issue with the program FINDSYM he has been working on.
• For this reason I choose this topic for my presentation in this Bob Sparks Symposium.

Crystalline Material
• Type A: 3-D Translation Lattice 230 Space groups.
• Type B: non-3D Translation Lattice Incommensurate, Misfit, Quasicrystal.
We will Focus here on Type A structures.

Preliminary Structure Determination
• All 3D structures can be solved in principle in space group P1 (Direct Methods etc.)
• Subsequent standard least-squares refinement of the model requires classification as either:- non-centrosymmetric (P1) or- (pseudo) centrosymmetric (P-1)
![Page 5: The MISSYM Family: Software for the detection of Missed or Pseudo Symmetry A.L.Spek Utrecht University The Netherlands.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551ae2275503465e7d8b47fd/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Centro or Non-centrosymmetric ?
• Correct assignment is not always trivial.• Refinement of (close to) centrosymmetric
structures in P1 is mathematically unstable.• Mis-assignment -> geometry artifacts.• Dick Marsh: Borderline cases are best treated as
centro-symmetric (static/dynamic disorder)• Inspect Fo/Fc of weak reflection data.• In general: chiral molecules-> non-centro SpGr.• Literature Example P1 <-> P-1.

Lattice Symmetry
• 229 higher symmetry groups than P1• 1979, Dick Marsh paper in Inorg. Chem.
‘Some Incorrect Space groups in Inorganic Chemistry Volume 16’ (7!)
• Change of Laue Group and/or crystal system (e.g. –1 to 2/m, i.e. triclinic to monoclinic; 4/m to 4/mmm)
• Example Triclinic P-1 to Monoclinic C2/c Orthorhombic Pbca to Cubic Pa-3

New Algorithm
• 1982: CREDUC, Y Le Page J.A.C.,15,255.• Determination of the Metrical Symmetry of the
lattice from the number of compatible two-fold axes. E.g. 5 tetragonal, 9 cubic
• Two-axis = coinciding low-index (0,1,2) direct and reciprocal lattice vectors within a tolerance.
• Actual symmetry can be lower, not higher than the metrical symmetry.
• Extended version => Twin laws.

The MISSYM Algorithm
• Y. Le Page published in 1987 a follow-up to CREDUC called MISSYM (J.A.C.,20,264).
• MISSYM Looks for support in the actual structure (I.e. coordinate set) for the proposed metrical symmetry elements.
• Liberal tolerances are used in general.• Reflection data are needed for follow-up
analysis by least-squares refinement.

MISSYM Implementations
• Y. Le Page – MISSYM/NRCVAX
Leaves evaluation and implementation of reported higher symmetry to the researcher.
• Hannemann et al. Part of ICSD Software
• Bob Sparks, FINDSYM (Bruker Nonius)
• A.L.Spek, ADDSYM (PLATON)
• ?? MSI – Insight II ???

PLATON/ADDSYM Extensions
• Suggests automatically a revised space group, unit cell and origin transformation.
• Generation of new ‘.res’ file for SHELXL refinm.• Allows for a number of non-fitting atoms.• Handles sub-cells. (structure prediction)• Accepts data in ‘.res’ and ‘.cif’ format.• Runs on files with multiple entries (CSD/CIF).• Display of revised (averaged) structure.

Comments
• Hydrogen atoms and Disordered atoms are not included in the analysis.
• Pseudo-symmetry can be both problematic and/or interesting (Inorganic Structures)
• Missing Atoms (Incomplete structures)
• Algorithm not suitable for macromolecules

Concluding Remarks
• Software to check for missed/pseudo symmetry is now readily availablee.g. www.cryst.chem.uu.nl/platon/
• ADDSYM included in IUCR/CHECKCIF• Proposed higher symmetry should either be
implemented or convincingly discussed as pseudo-symmetry in a structure report.
• Thanks Bob & Yvonne !
