TL;DR: A new set of covalent atomic radii has been deduced from crystallographic data for most of the elements with atomic numbers up to 96 and shows a well behaved periodic dependence that allows us to interpolate a few radii for elements for which structural data is lacking.

Abstract: A new set of covalent atomic radii has been deduced from crystallographic data for most of the elements with atomic numbers up to 96. The proposed radii show a well behaved periodic dependence that allows us to interpolate a few radii for elements for which structural data is lacking, notably the noble gases. The proposed set of radii therefore fills most of the gaps and solves some inconsistencies in currently used covalent radii. The transition metal and lanthanide contractions as well as the differences in covalent atomic radii between low spin and high spin configurations in transition metals are illustrated by the proposed radii set.

Calibrating the coordination chemistry tool chest: metrics of bi- and tridentate ligands
TL;DR: A structural database study of over one hundred bi- and tridentate ligands is presented that allows us to parametrize their coordinating properties and discuss the relevance of such parameters for the choice of coordination polyhedron or coordination sites.
"Inverse Sandwich" Complexes of Perhalogenated Cyclohexasilane
TL;DR: In this paper, single-crystal structural determination by X-ray analysis shows that the six silicon atoms comprising Si6Br12 adopt a chair conformation in the solid state, and the addition of p-tolunitrile to Si6X12 leads to the rapid formation of colorless precipitates.

N-methyl-benzothiazolium salts as carbon Lewis acids for Si-H σ bond activation and catalytic (de)hydrosilylation.
TL;DR: The N−Me‐benzothiazolium salts were demonstrated to have comparable Lewis acidity towards hydride as found for the triarylboranes widely used in Si−H σ‐bond activation, however, they display low Lewisacidity towards hard Lewis bases such as Et3PO and H2O in contrast to tri Darylboranes.

Revised effective ionic radii and systematic studies of interatomic distances in halides and chalcogenides
TL;DR: The effective ionic radii of Shannon & Prewitt [Acta Cryst. (1969), B25, 925-945] are revised to include more unusual oxidation states and coordinations as mentioned in this paper.

The Cambridge Structural Database: a quarter of a million crystal structures and rising
TL;DR: The Cambridge Structural Database now contains data for more than a quarter of a million small-molecule crystal structures, and projections concerning future accession rates indicate that the CSD will contain at least 500,000 crystal structures by the year 2010.

Atomic Radii in Crystals
TL;DR: A set of empirical atomic radii has been set up, such that the sum of the radii of two atoms forming a bond in a crystal or molecule gives an approximate value of the internuclear distance.
