52. The PdOctSi data in this work qualitatively resemble that of ref 33, but the specific d-spacings are significantly different. Sample specific variations have been observed in these materials and are the likely origin of this discrepancy.

54. The PdDSi unit cell given in ref 33 requires that the two polymer chains forming the unit cell have different equatorial orientations in order that all stated reflections are allowed. Introducing this assumption creates calculated structure factors with numerous equatorial reflections having nonzero intensities. Many of these do not appear in the experimental data.
55. Unconventional unit cells are preferred in this discussion because they better reflect the lamellar construction of the polymer host.
