TLDR
New features added to the refinement program SHELXL since 2008 are described and explained.
Abstract
The improvements in the crystal structure refinement program SHELXL have been closely coupled with the development and increasing importance of the CIF (Crystallographic Information Framework) format for validating and archiving crystal structures. An important simplification is that now only one file in CIF format (for convenience, referred to simply as `a CIF') containing embedded reflection data and SHELXL instructions is needed for a complete structure archive; the program SHREDCIF can be used to extract the .hkl and .ins files required for further refinement with SHELXL. Recent developments in SHELXL facilitate refinement against neutron diffraction data, the treatment of H atoms, the determination of absolute structure, the input of partial structure factors and the refinement of twinned and disordered structures. SHELXL is available free to academics for the Windows, Linux and Mac OS X operating systems, and is particularly suitable for multiple-core processors.

Effect of Bridging Ligands on Magnetic Behavior in Dinuclear Dysprosium Cores Supported by Polyoxometalates.

TL;DR: In this article, a family of dinuclear dysprosium cores bridged by different ligands within a polyoxometalates (POMs) framework was successfully synthesized and structurally characterized.

Diaryliodonium as a double σ-hole donor: the dichotomy of thiocyanate halogen bonding provides divergent solid state arylation by diaryliodonium cations

TL;DR: In this article, the XB preorganization affects the chemoselectivity of the thiocyanate arylation in the solid-state: the heating of [Ar1Ar2I](SCN) exhibiting either N-, or N,S preorganized XBs leads to extremely rare N-arylation or the conventional S-ARYlation, respectively.

Cobalt(II) complexes of sparfloxacin: Characterization, structure, antimicrobial activity and interaction with DNA and albumins.

TL;DR: The cobalt(II) complexes with the quinolone sparfloxacin (Hsf) in the absence or presence of the nitrogen-donor heterocyclic ligands 2,2'-bipyridine (bipy), 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) or 2,-2'- bipyridylamine ( bipyam) were prepared and characterized physicochemically and spectroscopically.

Deciphering the Structural Relationships of Five Cd-Based Metal-Organic Frameworks.

TL;DR: The search for the preceding compound that could convert to A resulted in the isolation of a 2D MOF [Cd(L)(DMF)] (E) that readily converted to A in water, but with the loss of single crystallinity.

The Cambridge Structural Database: a quarter of a million crystal structures and rising

TL;DR: The Cambridge Structural Database now contains data for more than a quarter of a million small-molecule crystal structures, and projections concerning future accession rates indicate that the CSD will contain at least 500,000 crystal structures by the year 2010.
