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.

Antibacterial activities of Cu-MOFs containing glutarates and bipyridyl ligands

TL;DR: Although these Cu-MOFs were found to be structurally very stable in aqueous medium during antibacterial activity tests, they exhibited excellent antibacterial activities against all five kinds of bacteria, including Gram-positive bacteria and Gram-negative bacteria, with very low MBCs.

Signal transduction in a covalent post-assembly modification cascade

TL;DR: Two coordination cages have been devised that undergo covalent modification during a cascade of two orthogonal Diels–Alder reactions, resulting in increased lipophilicity for the second cage, enabling its phase transfer and separation from the first.

Catalyzing the Hydrodefluorination of CF 3-Substituted Alkenes by PhSiH 3. H• Transfer from a Nickel Hydride

TL;DR: The hydrodefluorination of CF3-substituted alkenes can be catalyzed by a nickel(II) hydride bearing a pincer ligand and the relative reactivity of various substrates supports the proposed mechanism, as does a TEMPO trapping experiment.

Biosynthesis of fragin is controlled by a novel quorum sensing signal.

TL;DR: It is shown that metal chelation is the molecular basis of fragin’s antifungal activity, and that a gene cluster directing fragin biosynthesis is also involved in the synthesis of a signal molecule.

A short history of SHELX

TL;DR: This paper could serve as a general literature citation when one or more of the open-source SH ELX programs (and the Bruker AXS version SHELXTL) are employed in the course of a crystal-structure determination.

On enantiomorph‐polarity estimation

TL;DR: In this article, the behaviour of the Rogers's η parameter for enantiomorph-polarity estimation is examined theoretically and experimentally on simulated intensity data for seven well-assorted compounds.

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.
