35. 24 The diffraction data for this crystal structure exhibit a strong sublattice with h+l=2n, corresponding to a pseudotranslation of 0.5a + 0.5c. The average intensity of the sublattice reflections is approximately ten times that of the h+l=2n+1 reflections. However, we have carefully verified from the raw data that the weak reflections are truly present and are not an artefact of detector fluctuations. If the pseudotranslation were exact, the two donor molecule layers would be crystallographically equivalent. In the full unit cell, the main differences are in the conformation and disorder (layer 1) of the ethyl groups.
