Preface
This classified bibliography of organic and organametallic crystal
structures covers the period 1935-1969 and provides references to
over 4,000 compounds whose structures were analysed by X-ray or
neutron-diffraction methods. Volume 1 deals with generat organic
structures and Volume 2 with complexes, organametals and organo
metalloids.
The bibliography is the first of a new series of publications
"Molecular Structures and Dimensions" prepared at the Crystallo
graphic Data Centre, University Chemica1 Laboratory, Cambridge.
The Centre has been supported since 1965 by the Office for Scientific
and Technical Information as part of the British contribution to
international data activities.
The main objective of the Centre is to assemble a computer-based
File containing both bibliographic information and numerical data
abstracted from the Iiterature and relevant to molecular and crystal
structures, as obtained by diffraction methods. The File is designed
to permit the checking of published numerical values, particularly
interatomic distances and bond angles and to present published
results in a variety of new ways. Contents of the File will be made
available through the series "Molecular Structures and Dimensions"
and also by the provision of data on magnetic .t apes or discs. At
present the numerical data relating to molecular dimensions are
being checked and will be published, at a later date, as further
volumes in this series and also as magnetic tapes. The File is being
extended to cover electron diffraction in the gas phase. It is hoped
that by these methods the Centre will make the results of work in
the specialised field of diffraction available to a wide range of
scientists.
The bibliography and indexes were prepared, checked and printed
by computer techniques. The basic bibliographic file was processed
IX
with typesetting programs written in Cambridge and also with special
versions of the Science Abstracts (INSPEC) programs at the Institu
tion of Electrical Engineers, London. The resulting magnetic tapes
provided the input to a Photon 713 filmseUer and the output films
were printed by photo-offset. Computer methods have allowed us
to choose the latest possible cut-off date and to reduce the time-lag
between this and the actual date of publication. The tape containing
the present two volumes is available and anyone interested should
contact the Centre for further details.
lt is intended to issue the bibliography at yearly intervals and the
1969/1970 volume is already in preparation. Annual supplements
will include cumulative forrrtula and author indexes. Jt is hoped to
issue a completely new edhion in 1975.
The planrring of the J?ibliography was guided by members of the
Commission on Crystallographic Data of the International Union of
Crystallography and by many individual crystallographers throughout
the world. Its production was made possible by the generous sponsor
ship of the Office for Scientific and Technical Information, Depart
ment of Education and Science as part of their support, through the
Crystallographic Data Centre, of international data activities.
Although every effort has been made to ensure the correctness of
the entries, mistakes and omissions must inevitably have occurred.
We should be most grateful if readers would inform us of these and
of any suggestions for improvement of future volumes.

The production of this bibliography was a collaborative effort by
members of the Crystallographic Data Centre: Drs J. C. Coppola
(1967-1970), J.K. Fawcett (1965-1968), K.A. Kerr (1966--1968),
W.G. Town (1969-1970), W. Tundak (1967-1969), Mrs K. Watson
(1969-1970), Mrs S.M. Weeds (1965-1970), Miss H. Young (1966-
1970), visiting members: Drs A.C. Larson, D.L. Wampler, and
part-time helpers: A. Dias, E. Doyle, C. Ingram, A. O'Brien, M.
Pickett, S. Walker, M. Warne and D. Yoffe. The work of the Centre
was guided by members of the OSTI Scientific Advisory Committee:
Professor J.D. Bemal, Professor D.C. Phillips, Dame Kathleen
Lonsdale, Professor J.W. Linnett, Mr H.W. Rooksby, Dr E. Stern,
Dr M.R. Truter, Dr. M.F. Lynch, Professor A.J.C. Wilson.
Dr J.C. Coppola has checked allmultiple entries in the bibliography
and carried much of the burden of editing and proof-reading the
final tapes and print-outs.
Dr J.K. Fawcett has contributed particularly to devising a chemical
classification system and classifying the 1960-1967 material.
Dr W.G. Town was responsible for the ordered file system, wrote
many of the programs for basic file handling and the preparation of
the author and formula indexes.
Mrs S.M. Weeds was responsible for the Iiterature searches and
fqr preparing the abstracts from the original papers.
Miss M. Warne has checked most of the chemical formulae and
participated in the work on classification.
Dr D.L. Warnpier advised on nomenclature and formulation of
metal complexes and devised the basic metal-index program.
We are grateful to the Medical Research Council for allowing a
member of their Externat Scientific Staff (0. Kennard) to participate
in this work.
We thank Professor Lord Todd for providing accommodation in
XI
the Department of Chemistry, Cambridge and are grateful to both
Lord Todd and other members of staff for their advice on chemical
matters.
Our task was greatly facilitated by the excellent organisation of
the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, which provided
copies of most of the references listed in the bibliography. Dr R.S.
Cahn and the Nomenclature Division of the Chemical Abstracts
Service have helped with questions of nomenclature.
The present form of the bibliography owes much to the OSTI
Scientific Advisory Committee and to the various scientists in some
26 countries, who examined and advised us on the pilot volume
issued in 1968.
We have used the IBM 360/44 computer at the Institute of
Theoretical Astronomy and we were greatly helped by both the
programming staff and operators. We are grateful to INSPEC
(Information Service in Physics, Electrotechnology and Computers
& Control) and especially to Mr P. Simmons for the use of their
computer typesetting programs, which they specially modified for
our purposes. We have received valuable advice on typesetting
principles from Mr H.J. Davis (OSTI Documentation Processing
Centre), Mr C.J. Duncan (Computer Typesetting Research Project,
University ofNewcastle-upon-Tyne) and Mr A.H. Phillips (Technical
Development Division, HMSO).
The bibliography was prepared in parallel with the organic section
of "Crystal Data" (National Bureau of Standards, Washington
D.C., USA) and both publications were strengthened through this
collaboration. We are indebted to Professor J.D.H. Donnay and
Dr Helen Ondik for high editorial standards which they have set in
the field of crystallographic data.
