41. X-ray crystallographic data and details of the structure determination are listed in Table I in the Supporting Information. The numbering of the atoms adopted in both X-ray structures is according to IUPAC rules in this paper. Since this numbering is different in the cif file, tables in the Supporting Information are included to convert the labels used.
