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.read more

The first ternary Nd-MOF/GO/Fe3O4 nanocomposite exhibiting an excellent photocatalytic performance for dye degradation.
TL;DR: The ternary composite demonstrated excellent stability and reusability and can be easily recovered by a magnetic field, and would provide novel avenues for the preparation of highly efficient and environmentally stable photocatalysts for organic wastewater treatment.

Horse Liver Alcohol Dehydrogenase: Zinc Coordination and Catalysis
Bryce V. Plapp,Baskar Raj Savarimuthu,Daniel J. Ferraro,Jon K. Rubach,Eric N. Brown,S. Ramaswamy +5 more
TL;DR: During catalysis by liver alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), a water bound to the catalytic zinc is replaced by the oxygen of the substrates, and zinc coordination and participation of water in the enzyme mechanism were investigated by X-ray crystallography.

Counterion-Induced Variations in the Dimensionality and Topology of Uranyl Pimelate Complexes
TL;DR: In this article, the structure-directing effect of counterions with different shapes and charges has been investigated in the case of the complexes formed by uranyl ions with pimelic (heptanedioic) acid (H2C7) under solvo-hydrothermal conditions.

TL;DR: The emission of compounds 1 and 3-5, dominated by metal-to-ligand charge transfer transitions located within {CuP2 } motifs, is compatible with thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) behaviour and a small energy gap between the T1 and S1 excited states.

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.
