4937 whose absolute configuration has been establishedby single-crystal X-ray methods is A-(+) 589-iro/zs-tris-[(+)-3-acetylcamphorato] chromium (III). 5 Crystallization of a mixture of partially resolved Co (acac) 86 ([] 54ß=-20,200) and racemic Al (acac) 3 from benzene-hexane (~ 1: 10 v/v) gives quasiracemic monoclinic crystals which contain an excess of (—) s46-Co (acac) 3 andwhich display lattice parameters (a= 13.96±0.02, b=7.53±0.01, c= 16.32±0.02 A, ß=98.66±0.05) nearly identicalwith those for the isomorphous crystals of racemic Co (acac) 3 and racemic Al (acac) 3.7 However, the quasiracemic crystals show only the space group symmetry P2i instead of P21jc, that observed for the racemic acetylacetonates. In the quasiracemic Co (acac) 3-Al (acac) 3 mixed crystals, unequal substitutionof cobalt inthe two enantiomeric sites suffices to reduce the space group symmetry from the centrosymmetric P2l/c to the noncentrosymmetric P2i without requiring any change in atomic coordinates. For the crystal used in this determination, the reflec-tions l— 2n+ 1 on A0/, normally extinct for P2i/c, appeared weakly but were quite sharp. Intensity data on 268 reflections from the four layers A0/, 7, 0kl, and\kl were estimated visually from multiple-exposure precession photographs taken with Ni-filtered Cu Ka radiation. Intralayer scaling of the intensities was performed with corrections for Lorentzpolarization and spot extension being applied. Since the quasiracemiccrystal is isomorphous with the racemic trisacetylacetonates of Co (III), 7 Al (III), 7 and Mn (III), 8 refinements of the site occupancies and interlayer scale factors (six parameters) were carried out using the previously published structural parameters for these three complexes. The results of these refine-ments, which employedonly the real part of the scatter-ing factors for Co0, Al0, C, and O0, 9-10 are summarized in Table I. It is quite clear that there is no significance
