Absolute structure determination of hydrocarbons

Determination of the absolute structure of a molecule composed solely of hydrocarbons was difficult even with the use of a Cu source. The newly developed Hybrid Photon Counting (HPC) detector HyPix-6000HE, with a measurement schedule optimized with CrysAlisPro, allows the absolute structure to be deduced more easily.
