The direct determination of phase invariants provided by diffraction data measured at two different temperatures.
A procedure is described for the determination of the crystal structure phase invariants of a compound based on diffraction data measured at two different temperatures. This temperature difference replacement (TDR) technique is shown to provide phase-invariant information from experimentally measured X-ray diffraction data for two different test structures. Although the new method does not appear to be as powerful as single-derivative isomorphous replacement (SIR) phasing, it does appear to be capable of reliably determining a limited number of negative as well as positive phase-restricted invariants for structures containing as many as 300 non-H atoms in the asymmetric unit.
