X-ray: The chemistry department at Kent State University has a Siemens D5000 Powder Diffractometer and a Bruker AXS platform single crystal X-ray diffractometer upgraded with an APEX II CCD detector. The radiation used is graphite monochromatized Mo K a radiation ( l = 0.7107 Å). The instrument is currently equipped with an Oxford 700 Series Cryostream low temperature device (Operates at 100 K). Lattice determination, data collection, structure refinement, scaling, and data reduction are carried out using Apex2 v1.0-27.
