Aim: To introduce the principles of structural chemistry in order to enable the student to use X-ray diffraction methods and to interpret the results of crystal structure investigations.
Contents: Theory of X-ray scattering from crystals. Single crystal diffractometry. Theory of crystal structure determination. Phase identification by powder diffraction. Use of structural databases. Experimental work including crystal mounting and X-ray work. Structure determination of a fairly simple crystalline compound.
