accordingly the re¯ection data were subjected to the SQUEEZE
option in PLATON before the ®nal re®nement. This procedure
suggested the presence of only 6±7 electrons per unit cell within the
voids. Examination of the re®ned structure of (III) using PLATON
also revealed two symmetry-related void spaces per unit cell, each of

the residual densities from the re®nement were very low. Accord-
ingly, a supernumerary O atom was placed near the centre of the void
and its site-occupancy factor was re®ned, giving a value of 0.045 (6),
indicative of negligible electron density within the void.
