Supplementary Material (ESI) for Dalton Transactions This journal is © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2001 Supplementary Material: X-ray powder diffraction reflections Powder X-ray diffraction patterns (PXD) data were collected using a Philips XPERT -2 diffractometer with Cu-K radiation. Samples were mounted on flat glass plate sample holders. Ca. 40 minute scans were run for each sample to assess phase purity. Typically short scans were run over the range 5o < 2 < 70o with step size 0.02o 2 and times per step of 0.7 s. Purity was assessed by using the IDENTIFY routine as part of the Philips PC diffraction software allowing access to the JCPDS database. The simulated powder pattern was generated using the PC software packages LAZY PULVERIX and POWDERCELL, taking the single crystal structural data for each compound as a model.
