Abstract
The structure of a large complex molecule, C21H24O9, has been solved directly from neutron diffraction data by using sigma-2 and tangent refinement methods. As a consequence, the neutron diffraction technique must be reevaluated as a possible primary tool for crystal structure determination.Keywords
