_atom_site_description
CIF
A description of special aspects of this site. See also
_atom_site_refinement_flags.
Example:
Ag/Si disordered
_atom_site_disorder_assembly
CIF
A code which identifies a cluster of atoms that show long-range
positional disorder but are locally ordered. Within each such
cluster of atoms, _atom_site_disorder_group is used to identify
the sites that are simultaneously occupied. This field is only
needed if there is more than one cluster of disordered atoms
showing independent local order.
Examples:
A
B
S
_atom_site_disorder_group
CIF
A code which identifies a group of positionally disordered atom
sites that are locally simultaneously occupied. Atoms that are positionally disordered over two or more sites (e.g. the hydrogen atoms of a methyl group that exists in two orientations) can be assigned to two or more groups. Sites belonging to the same group are simultaneously occupied, but those belonging to different groups are not. A minus prefix (e.g. "-1") is used to indicate sites disordered about a special position.
Examples:
1
2
-1
_atom_site_fract
CIF
Data names: _atom_site_fract_x _atom_site_fract_y _atom_site_fract_z
Atom-site coordinates as fractions of the _cell_length_ values.
_atom_site_label
CIF
The _atom_site_label is a unique identifier for a particular site
in the crystal. This code is made up of a sequence of up to seven components, _atom_site_label_component_0 to *_6, which may be specified as separate data items. Component 0 usually matches one of the specified _atom_type_symbol codes. This is not mandatory if an _atom_site_type_symbol item is included in the atom-site list. The _atom_site_type_symbol always takes precedence over an _atom_site_label in the identification of the atom type. The label components 1 to 6 are optional, and normally only components 0 and 1 are used. Note that components 0 and 1 are concatenated, while all other components, if specified, are separated by an underscore. Underscores are only used if higher-order components exist. If an intermediate component is not used, it may be omitted provided the underscore separators are inserted. For example, the label 'C233__ggg' is acceptable and represents the components C, 233, '' and ggg. Different labels may have a different number of components.
Examples:
C12
Ca3g28
Fe3+17
H*251
boron2a
C_a_phe_83_a_0
Zn_Zn_301_A_0
_atom_site_label_component
CIF
Data names: _atom_site_label_component_0 _atom_site_label_component_1 _atom_site_label_component_2 _atom_site_label_component_3 _atom_site_label_component_4 _atom_site_label_component_5 _atom_site_label_component_6
Component 0 is normally a code which matches identically with
one of the _atom_type_symbol codes. If this is the case, then the rules governing the _atom_type_symbol code apply. If, however, the data item _atom_site_type_symbol is also specified in the atom-site list, component 0 need not match this symbol or adhere to any of the _atom_type_symbol rules. Component 1 is referred to as the "atom number". When component 0 is the atom-type code, it is used to number the sites with the same atom type. This component code must start with at least one digit which is not followed by a + or - sign (to distinguish it from the component 0 rules). Components 2 to 6 contain the identifier, residue, sequence, asymmetry identifier and alternate codes, respectively. These codes may be composed of any characters except an underscore.
_atom_site_occupancy
CIF
The fraction of the atom type present at this site.
The sum of the occupancies of all the atom types at this site may not significantly exceed 1.0 unless it is a dummy site. The value must lie in the 99.97% Gaussian confidence interval -3u =< x =< 1 + 3u. The _enumeration_range of 0.0:1.0 is thus correctly interpreted as meaning (0.0 - 3u) =< x =< (1.0 + 3u).
_atom_site_refinement_flags
CIF
A concatenated series of single-letter codes which indicate the
refinement restraints or constraints applied to this site. This
item should not be used. It has been replaced by
_atom_site_refinement_flags_posn, *_adp and *_occupancy. It is
retained in this dictionary only to provide compatibility with
legacy CIFs.

given in _atom_site_site_symmetry_multiplicity.
_atom_site_symmetry_multiplicity
CIF
The multiplicity of a site due to the space-group symmetry as
given in International Tables for Crystallography Vol. A (2002).
Use of this data name is deprecated because of inconsistencies in practice among structure refinement software packages. The number of positions given for this Wyckoff site in International Tables for Crystallography Vol. A (2002). should now be expressed using the data name _atom_site_site_symmetry_multiplicity. In the historic archive some CIFs use this item to give values that belong in _atom_site_site_symmetry_order.

_audit_block_doi
CIF
The digital object identifier (DOI) registered to identify
the data set publication represented by the current datablock. This can be used as a unique identifier for the datablock so long as the code used is a valid DOI (i.e. begins with a valid publisher prefix assigned by a Registration Agency and a suffix guaranteed to be unique by the publisher) and has had its metadata deposited with a DOI Registration Agency.
A DOI is a unique character string identifying any object of intellectual property. It provides a persistent identifier for an object on a digital network and permits the association of related current data in a structured extensible way. A DOI is an implementation of the Internet concepts of Uniform Resource Name and Universal Resource Locator managed according to the specifications of the International DOI Foundation (see http://www.doi.org).

_CHEMICAL_FORMULA_[]
CIF
_chemical_formula_ items specify the composition and chemical properties of the compound. The formula data items must agree with those that specify the density, unit-cell and Z values.
The following rules apply to the construction of the data items _chemical_formula_analytical, *_structural and *_sum. For the data item *_moiety, the formula construction is broken up into residues or moieties, i.e. groups of atoms that form a molecular unit or molecular ion. The rules given below apply within each moiety but different requirements apply to the way that moieties are connected (see _chemical_formula_moiety).
(1) Only recognized element symbols may be used.
(2) Each element symbol is followed by a 'count' number. A
count of '1' may be omitted.
(3) A space or parenthesis must separate each cluster of (element symbol + count).
(4) Where a group of elements is enclosed in parentheses, the multiplier for the group must follow the closing parenthesis. That is, all element and group multipliers are assumed to be printed as subscripted numbers. (An exception to this rule exists for *_moiety formulae where pre- and post-multipliers are permitted for molecular units.)
(5) Unless the elements are ordered in a manner that corresponds to their chemical structure, as in _chemical_formula_structural, the order of the elements within any group or moiety depends on whether carbon is present or not. If carbon is present, the order should be: C, then H, then the other elements in alphabetical order of their symbol. If carbon is not present, the elements are listed purely in alphabetical order of their symbol. This is the 'Hill' system used by Chemical Abstracts. This ordering is used in _chemical_formula_moiety and _chemical_formula_sum.
Examples:
_chemical_formula_moiety 'C18 H25 N O3' _chemical_formula_sum 'C18 H25 N O3' _chemical_formula_weight 303.40
_chemical_formula_iupac '[Mo (C O)4 (C18 H33 P)2]' _chemical_formula_moiety 'C40 H66 Mo O4 P2' _chemical_formula_structural '((C O)4 (P (C6 H11)3)2)Mo' _chemical_formula_sum 'C40 H66 Mo O4 P2' _chemical_formula_weight 768.81

_chemical_formula_moiety
CIF
Formula with each discrete bonded residue or ion shown as a
separate moiety. See the _chemical_formula_[] category description for rules for writing chemical formulae. In addition to the general formulae requirements, the following rules apply: (1) Moieties are separated by commas ','. (2) The order of elements within a moiety follows general rule (5) in the _chemical_formula_[] category description. (3) Parentheses are not used within moieties but may surround a moiety. Parentheses may not be nested. (4) Charges should be placed at the end of the moiety. The charge '+' or '-' may be preceded by a numerical multiplier and should be separated from the last (element symbol + count) by a space. Pre- or post-multipliers may be used for individual moieties.
Examples:
C7 H4 Cl Hg N O3 S
C12 H17 N4 O S 1+, C6 H2 N3 O7 1-
C12 H16 N2 O6, 5(H2 O1)
(Cd 2+)3, (C6 N6 Cr 3-)2, 2(H2 O)
_chemical_formula_structural
CIF
See the _chemical_formula_[] category description for the rules
for writing chemical formulae for inorganics, organometallics,
metal complexes etc., in which bonded groups are preserved
as discrete entities within parentheses, with post-multipliers
as required. The order of the elements should give as much
information as possible about the chemical structure.
Parentheses may be used and nested as required. This formula
should correspond to the structure as actually reported,
i.e. trace elements not included in atom-type and atom-site
lists should not be included in this formula (see also
_chemical_formula_analytical).
Examples:
Ca ((Cl O3)2 O)2 (H2 O)6
(Pt (N H3)2 (C5 H7 N3 O)2) (Cl O4)2
_chemical_formula_sum
CIF
See the _chemical_formula_[] category description for the rules

_chemical_formula_[] category description. Parentheses are not
normally used.
Example:
C18 H19 N7 O8 S
_chemical_formula_weight

The crystal dimensions should not normally be reported here; use instead _exptl_crystal_size_ for the gross dimensions of the crystal and _exptl_crystal_face_ to describe the relationship between individual faces.
_exptl_crystal_F_000
CIF
The expression for a structure factor evaluated in the
zeroth-order case h = k = l = 0, F(000). This may contain dispersion contributions and is calculated as
F(000) = [ (sum f~r~)^2^ + (sum f~i~)^2^ ]^1/2^
f~r~ = real part of the scattering factors at theta = 0 f~i~ = imaginary part of the scattering factors at theta = 0
the sum is taken over each atom in the unit cell
For X-rays, non-dispersive F(000) is a positive number and counts the effective number of electrons in the unit cell; for neutrons, non-dispersive F(000) (which may be negative) counts the total nuclear scattering power in the unit cell. See http://reference.iucr.org/dictionary/F(000)

_GEOM_[]
CIF
Data items in the GEOM and related (GEOM_ANGLE,
GEOM_BOND, GEOM_CONTACT, GEOM_HBOND and GEOM_TORSION) categories record details about the molecular and crystal geometry as calculated from the ATOM, CELL and SYMMETRY data.
Geometry data are usually redundant, in that they can be calculated from other more fundamental quantities in the data block. However, they serve the dual purposes of providing a check on the correctness of both sets of data and of enabling the most important geometric data to be identified for publication by setting the appropriate publication flag.
Example:
_geom_special_details
; All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between
two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance
matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually
in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and
torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell
parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal
symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell
esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

; The oxazolidinone ring is a shallow envelope
conformation with the tert-butyl and iso-butyl groups
occupying trans-positions with respect to the ring. The
angles at the N atom sum to 356.2°, indicating a very
small degree of pyramidalization at this atom. This is
consistent with electron delocalization between the N
atom and the carbonyl centre [N-C=O = 1.374(3)Å].

The largest and smallest values and the root-mean-square
deviation, in electrons per angstrom cubed, of the final difference electron density. The *_rms value is measured with respect to the arithmetic mean density and is derived from summations over each grid point in the asymmetric unit of the cell.

_refine_ls_abs_structure_Flack
CIF
The measure of absolute structure as defined by Flack (1983).
For centrosymmetric structures, the only permitted value, if the data name is present, is 'inapplicable', represented by '.' .
For noncentrosymmetric structures, the value must lie in the 99.97% Gaussian confidence interval -3u =< x =< 1 + 3u and a standard uncertainty (e.s.d.) u must be supplied. The _enumeration_range of 0.0:1.0 is correctly interpreted as meaning (0.0 - 3u) =< x =< (1.0 + 3u).

of the reflections used in the refinement. This is called the highest resolution.
_refine_ls_d_res_low
CIF
The largest value in angstroms of the interplanar spacings
of the reflections used in the refinement. This is called the lowest resolution.
_refine_ls_extinction_coef
CIF
The extinction coefficient used to calculate the correction
factor applied to the structure-factor data. The nature of the extinction coefficient is given in the definitions of _refine_ls_extinction_expression and _refine_ls_extinction_method.
For the 'Zachariasen' method it is the r* value; for the 'Becker-Coppens type 1 isotropic' method it is the 'g' value and for 'Becker-Coppens type 2 isotropic' corrections it is the 'rho' value. Note that the magnitude of these values is usually of the order of 10000.

edited by F. R. Ahmed. Eq. (22), p. 292.
Copenhagen: Munksgaard.
_refine_ls_extinction_method
CIF
A description of the extinction-correction method applied.
This description should include information about the correction method, either 'Becker-Coppens' or 'Zachariasen'. The latter is sometimes referred to as the 'Larson' method even though it employs Zachariasen's formula.
The Becker-Coppens procedure is referred to as 'type 1' when correcting secondary extinction dominated by the mosaic spread; as 'type 2' when secondary extinction is dominated by particle size and includes a primary extinction component; and as 'mixed' when there is a mixture of types 1 and 2.
For the Becker-Coppens method, it is also necessary to set the
mosaic distribution as either 'Gaussian' or 'Lorentzian' and
the nature of the extinction as 'isotropic' or 'anisotropic'.
Note that if either the 'mixed' or 'anisotropic' corrections
are applied, the multiple coefficients cannot be contained in
*_extinction_coef and must be listed in _refine_special_details.

_reflns_Friedel_coverage
CIF
The proportion of Friedel-related reflections present in
the number of 'independent' reflections specified by

This proportion is calculated as the ratio:
[N(crystal class) - N(Laue symmetry)] / N(Laue symmetry)
where, working from the _diffrn_refln_ list,
N(crystal class) is the number of reflections obtained on averaging under the symmetry of the crystal class N(Laue symmetry) is the number of reflections obtained on averaging under the Laue symmetry.
Examples: (a) For centrosymmetric structures, _reflns_Friedel_coverage is necessarily equal to 0.0 as the crystal class is identical to the Laue symmetry. (b) For whole-sphere data for a crystal in the space group P1, _reflns_Friedel_coverage is equal to 1.0, as no reflection h k l is equivalent to -h -k -l in the crystal class and all Friedel pairs {h k l; -h -k -l} have been measured. (c) For whole-sphere data in space group Pmm2, _reflns_Friedel_coverage will be < 1.0 because although reflections h k l and -h -k -l are not equivalent when h k l indices are nonzero, they are when l=0. (d) For a crystal in the space group Pmm2, measurements of the two inequivalent octants h >= 0, k >=0, l lead to the same value as in (c), whereas measurements of the two equivalent octants h >= 0, k, l >= 0 will lead to a value of zero for _reflns_Friedel_coverage.

For centrosymmetric space groups the value would be 0/0 and so would be given as '.'.
_reflns_Friedel_fraction_max
CIF
The number of Friedel pairs measured out to
_diffrn_reflns_theta_max. divided by the number theoretically possible (ignoring reflections in centric projections and systematic absences throughout). In contrast to _reflns_Friedel_coverage this can take values in the full range 0 to 1 for any non-centrosymmetric space group, and so one can see at a glance how completely the Friedel pairs have been measured. For centrosymmetric space groups the value would be 0/0 and so would be given as '.'.

_SPACE_GROUP_[]
CIF
Contains all the data items that refer to the space group as a
whole, such as its name or crystal system. They may be looped, for example, in a list of space groups and their properties.
Only a subset of the SPACE_GROUP category items appear in the core dictionary. The remainder are found in the symmetry CIF dictionary.
Space-group types are identified by their number as given in International Tables for Crystallography Vol. A. Specific settings of the space groups can be identified either by their Hall symbol or by specifying their symmetry operations.
The commonly used Hermann-Mauguin symbol determines the space-group type uniquely but several different Hermann-Mauguin symbols may refer to the same space-group type. A Hermann-Mauguin symbol contains information on the choice of the basis, but not on the choice of origin. Different formats for the Hermann-Mauguin symbol are found in the symmetry CIF dictionary.
Example:
_space_group_id 1 _space_group_name_H-M_alt 'C 2/c' _space_group_IT_number 15 _space_group_name_Hall '-C 2yc' _space_group_crystal_system monoclinic
_space_group_crystal_system
CIF
The name of the system of geometric crystal classes of space
groups (crystal system) to which the space group belongs. Note that rhombohedral space groups belong to the trigonal system.
_space_group_id
CIF
This is an identifier needed if _space_group_ items are looped.
_space_group_IT_number
CIF
The number as assigned in International Tables for
Crystallography Vol. A, specifying the proper affine class (i.e. the orientation-preserving affine class) of space groups (crystallographic space-group type) to which the space group belongs. This number defines the space-group type but not the coordinate system in which it is expressed.
_space_group_name_H-M_alt
CIF
_space_group_name_H-M_alt allows any Hermann-Mauguin symbol
to be given. The way in which this item is used is determined by the user and in general is not intended to be interpreted by computer. It may, for example, be used to give one of the extended Hermann-Mauguin symbols given in Table 4.3.2.1 of International Tables for Crystallography Vol. A (2002) or a Hermann-Mauguin symbol for a conventional or unconventional setting.
Each component of the space-group name is separated by a space or an underscore. The use of a space is strongly recommended. The underscore is only retained because it was used in older files. It should not be used in new CIFs. Subscripts should appear without special symbols. Bars should be given as negative signs before the numbers to which they apply.
The commonly used Hermann-Mauguin symbol determines the space-
group type uniquely but a given space-group type may be
described by more than one Hermann-Mauguin symbol. The space-
group type is best described using _space_group_IT_number.
The Hermann-Mauguin symbol may contain information on the
choice of basis, but not on the choice of origin. To
define the setting uniquely, use _space_group_name_Hall or
list the symmetry operations.
Example:
loop_
_space_group_id
_space_group_name_H-M_alt
1 'C m c m'
2 'C 2/c 2/m 21/m'
3 'A m a m'
_space_group_name_Hall
CIF
Space-group symbol defined by Hall.
Each component of the space-group name is separated by a space or an underscore. The use of a space is strongly recommended. The underscore is only retained because it was used in older files. It should not be used in new CIFs.
_space_group_name_Hall uniquely defines the space group and
its reference to a particular coordinate system.
Ref: Hall, S. R. (1981). Acta Cryst. A37, 517-525; erratum
(1981), A37, 921.
[See also International Tables for Crystallography,
Vol. B (2001), Chapter 1.4, Appendix 1.4.2]
Examples:
P 2c -2ac
-I 4bd 2ab 3
_SPACE_GROUP_SYMOP_[]
CIF
Contains information about the symmetry operations of the
space group.
Example:
loop_
_space_group_symop_id
_space_group_symop_operation_xyz
1 x,y,z
2 -x,-y,-z
3 -x,1/2+y,1/2-z
4 x,1/2-y,1/2+z
_space_group_symop_id
CIF
An arbitrary identifier that uniquely labels each symmetry
operation in the list.
In order for the defaults to work correctly, the identity operation should have _space_group_symop_id or _symmetry_equiv_pos_site_id set to 1, and _space_group_symop_operation_xyz or _symmetry_equiv_pos_as_xyz set to x,y,z; i.e. the operation labelled 1 should be the identity operation.
_space_group_symop_operation_xyz
CIF
A parsable string giving one of the symmetry operations of the
space group in algebraic form. If W is a matrix representation of the rotational part of the symmetry operation defined by the positions and signs of x, y and z, and w is a column of translations defined by fractions, an equivalent position X' is generated from a given position X by the equation
X' = WX + w
(Note: X is used to represent bold_italics_x in International Tables for Crystallography Vol. A, Part 5)
When a list of symmetry operations is given, it must contain a complete set of coordinate representatives which generates all the operations of the space group by the addition of all primitive translations of the space group. Such representatives are to be found as the coordinates of the general-equivalent position in International Tables for Crystallography Vol. A (2002), to which it is necessary to add any centring translations shown above the general-equivalent position.
That is to say, it is necessary to list explicitly all the symmetry operations required to generate all the atoms in the unit cell defined by the setting used.
In order for the defaults to work correctly, the identity operation should have _space_group_symop_id or _symmetry_equiv_pos_site_id set to 1, and _space_group_symop_operation_xyz or _symmetry_equiv_pos_as_xyz set to x,y,z; i.e. the operation labelled 1 should be the identity operation.
Example:
x,1/2-y,1/2+z
_space_group_symop_sg_id
CIF
This must match a particular value of _space_group_id, allowing
the symmetry operation to be identified with a particular space group.
_SYMMETRY_[]
CIF
Data items in the SYMMETRY category record details about the
space-group symmetry.
Example:
_symmetry_cell_setting orthorhombic _symmetry_space_group_name_H-M 'P 21 21 21' _symmetry_space_group_name_Hall 'P 2ac 2ab'
_symmetry_cell_setting
CIF
The cell settings for this space-group symmetry.
_symmetry_Int_Tables_number
CIF
Space-group number from International Tables for Crystallography
Vol. A (2002).
_symmetry_space_group_name_H-M
CIF
Hermann-Mauguin space-group symbol. Note that the Hermann-Mauguin
symbol does not necessarily contain complete information
about the symmetry and the space-group origin. If used, always
supply the FULL symbol from International Tables for
Crystallography Vol. A (2002) and indicate the origin and
the setting if it is not implicit. If there is any doubt
that the equivalent positions can be uniquely deduced from
this symbol, specify the _symmetry_equiv_pos_as_xyz
or *_Hall data items as well. Leave spaces between
symbols referring to different axes.
Examples:
P 1 21/m 1
P 2/n 2/n 2/n (origin at -1)
R -3 2/m
_symmetry_space_group_name_Hall
CIF
Space-group symbol as described by Hall. This symbol gives the
space-group setting explicitly. Leave spaces between the separate components of the symbol.
Ref: Hall, S. R. (1981). Acta Cryst. A37, 517-525; erratum (1981), A37, 921.
Examples:
-P 2ac 2n
-R 3 2"
P 61 2 2 (0 0 -1)
_SYMMETRY_EQUIV_[]
CIF
Data items in the SYMMETRY_EQUIV category list the
symmetry-equivalent positions for the space group.
Examples:
loop_
_symmetry_equiv_pos_as_xyz
+x,+y,+z 1/2-x,-y,1/2+z 1/2+x,1/2-y,-z -x,1/2+y,1/2-z

_symmetry_equiv_pos_as_xyz
1 x,y,z
2 1/2-x,-y,1/2+z
3 1/2+x,1/2-y,-z
4 -x,1/2+y,1/2-z
_symmetry_equiv_pos_as_xyz
CIF
Symmetry-equivalent position in the 'xyz' representation. Except
for the space group P1, these data will be repeated in a loop. The format of the data item is as per International Tables for Crystallography Vol. A. (2002). All equivalent positions should be entered, including those for lattice centring and a centre of symmetry, if present.
In order for the defaults to work correctly, the identity operation should have _space_group_symop_id or _symmetry_equiv_pos_site_id set to 1, and _space_group_symop_operation_xyz or _symmetry_equiv_pos_as_xyz set to x,y,z; i.e. the operation labelled 1 should be the identity operation.
Example:
-y+x,-y,1/3+z
_symmetry_equiv_pos_site_id
CIF
A code identifying each entry in the _symmetry_equiv_pos_as_xyz
list. It is normally the sequence number of the entry in that list, and should be identified with the code 'n' in _geom_*_symmetry_ codes of the form 'n_klm'.
In order for the defaults to work correctly, the identity operation should have _space_group_symop_id or _symmetry_equiv_pos_site_id set to 1, and _space_group_symop_operation_xyz or _symmetry_equiv_pos_as_xyz set to x,y,z; i.e. the operation labelled 1 should be the identity operation.
_VALENCE_PARAM_[]
CIF
Data items in the VALENCE_PARAM category define the
parameters used for calculating bond valences from bond lengths. In addition to the parameters, a pointer is given to the reference (in VALENCE_REF) from which the bond-valence parameters were taken.
