Περιγραφή: The coupling of the crystallographic refinement technique Hirshfeld atom refinement (HAR) with the recently constructed libraries of extremely localized molecular orbitals (ELMOs) gives rise to the new quantum-crystallographic method HAR-ELMO. This method is significantly faster than HAR but as accurate and precise, especially concerning the free refinement of hydrogen atoms from X-ray diffraction data, so that the first fully quantum-crystallographic refinement of a protein is presented here. However, the promise of HAR-ELMO exceeds large molecules and protein crystallography. In fact, it also renders possible electron-density investigations of heavy elements in small molecules and facilitates the detection and isolation of systematic errors from physical effects. © 2019 American Chemical Society ; S.G. thanks the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft DFG) for funding within the projects GR 4451/1-1 and GR 4451/2-1, J.B. within BE 3716/7-1, and E.H. for a research fellowship HU 2512/1-1.
