Received 1 April 1974 Revisedmanuscriptreceived29 July 1974 Double+ntry tables are presented in which the columns correspondto oriented site symmetriesand the rows to the space groupswhose factor groupsare isomorphic with a given crystallographicpoint group. The site SYtUmettkS are representedby oriented Hermann-Mauguinpoint-groupsymbols. Ekh entry shows the multiplicity of the pointpositions that have the required site symmetq and, far each point-position, the Wyckoff letter and th:: fracticnal aordinates of one site. An additional table gives the supergroupsof every crystallographicpoint gmup, thus indicating the tables that are to be consulted Spectroscopicapplications of the tables are illustratedby two examples. In the ikt, the tables are employed to facilitate factor-groupanalyses when complete crystallographic data are available. In the second example, structuralinformation is obtained from vibrationalspectraby systematic use of the tables.

I. Introduction The following tabulations are offered as companion tables to those listingcoprime multiplicities of spacegroup point-positions [ 11. Like their predecessors,the present tables have been compiled with the needs of the spectroscopist in mind. They provide the answer to the following question: “In which space groups does a point-position of known site symmetry occur?” At the same time they also give the multiplicity of the point-position, its Wyckoff letter and the fractional coordinates of one of its sites. In single-crystalspectroscopy some crystallographic data usually are availableto the spectroscopist. They are the point group of the crystal, its Laue classor its crystal system. The tables are based on these fundamental subdivisions.The cubic system requires three tables: the first for 0, - 4lm 2 2/m. the second for T,,-a3m and O-432, and the third one for the two point groups of Laue class Th - 2/m 3. The hexagonal system fits into two tables: one for the seven point groups in which the lattice must be hexagonal

(table IV) and the other for the five trigonal point groups where the lattice may be hexagonal or rhombohedral (table V); each of these two tables covers two Laue classes. In the tetragonal system, the high-symmetry point groups are treated individually(tables v1 to IX) while the three point groups of Laue classC4h-4/m are presented in table X. In the low-symmetry systems, the orthorhombic has three tables (Xl, XII and XDD; the monoclinic has one (table XIV) and so has the triclinic (table XV). This arrangementhas no special significance;it was dictated by space considerations and reasons of convenience.

2. The tabular presentations In table VI, which is entitled “Tetragonal D4h - 4/m 2/m 2/m”, the rows correspond to the

twenty space groups whose factor groups are isomorphic with point group D4h-4/m 2/m 2/m; the space groups are listed along the left margin.The number

symbol; it is followed by the Hermann-Mauguin symbol. ‘Ihe column headingsrefer ,to the site symmetries available in the point-positions of the various space groups. lhese point-group symmetries are also given in both notations, and the oriented Hermann-Mauguin short symbols are used here. Consider the column headed Ca. The site symmetry C, - 2/m may be oriented in three different ways, according as the 2-fold axis is parallel to the primary direction Z (2/m..), to one of the secondary directions X or Y (.2/m.) or to one of the tertiary directions (..2/m). In the oriented symbols the dummy dots serve to situate the 2/m direction within the tetragonal symmetry of the crystal: they stand for the “unused” directions. Site symmetry D2-222 can likewise be oriented in two ways, and the Hermann-Mauguin symbol can be “written tetragonally” either 222. or 2.22, according as two of the three a-fold axes lie along the secondary or the tertiary directions. The first 2 in either symbol refers to the primary direction, Z, of the tetragonal system. At the intersection of a given column with one of the appropriate rows, the entry gives the following information on one or several point-positions that have the required site symmetry: Multiplicity of the pointposition(s), Wyckoff letter(s), coordinates of one site from each point-position. Thz choice of origi.i is thus immediately apparent, as the coordinate triplet 000 will be found under the site symmetry of the origin. The Wyckoff letters are given to facilitate crossreference to other tables, such as Infernafional Tables for X-my Crystallography 121 and Space Croupsnnd Lotrice C’omp&es 131. The entries in the tables ale read as follows. In table VI, for example, consider the TOW that corresponds to space group 0:: - P4*/mcm. Some of the entries give only one point-position, like 4e (042) under D2- 222., 8n (~0) under C, - m.. and 16~ (x_~z)under Ct - 1. Dividing a point-position multiplicity into the order (16) of point group 4/m 2/m 2/m gives the index of the site-symmetry subgroup. For the above site symmetries the subgroup indices are as follows: for D2, 1614 = 4; for C,, 16/S = 2; forC1, 16/16=I.Theentry4~underC2,-m.2m gives two point-positions, 4i and 43, for which the listed site coordinates are xx0 and xx4, respectively.

‘Ilte fust entry in f&, -P4/mmm is lad; it is followed by four triplets of coordinates, for positions la, 1b, lc and Id, respectively. This compact presentation can be used whenever there is no gap in the alphabetical sequence. If there is, the alphabetical order is reversed, as in 2db and 2cu in space group D$ - P42/mcm. Occasionally three point positions have Wyckoff letters that cannot be written in a gapless alphabetical sequence. In-such cases the letter precedes the site coorciinates in the entry. In space group D$, -P&2 (table IV), under site symmetry a.., the entry lists three point-positions, b (003], d (483) and f (843), under their common multiplicity 2. The site coordinates are fractions of unit-cell* edges, expressed as numbers of halves, fourths, eighths or twelfths of these edges.The legendsto the tables give thz necessary information in each case. They also explain a few abbreviations that had to be used for the sake of compactness: Q = 10. /3= 11, X = 4 fx, and the like.

3. Subgroups and supergroups of crystal point groups Since a given site symmetry can only occur among the space groups whose factor group is a supergroup of that site symmetry, it is necessary to find which point groups are supergroups of a given point group. A special table is provided for this purpose (table XVI)**. An illuminating example is provided by site symmetry Da -2/m 2/m 2/m. Locate this symmetry l

Althoughmodem crystrdlograpbicwge tends to substitute “cell” for “‘onitcell”, the term “unit cell” will be retained

here on purpose, to mean the parallelepipedalcell (whether primitiveor multiple) used by crystallographersand to distinguishit from the spectroscopists’primitive cell, or the Wlgnn-Seitz “cell” (41. The latter refersto the smallestpolyhedron containingone lattice point and possessingfull lattice symmetry at thal point. The content of the Wignn-Seitz “cell”, crystallographicallyspeaking, is the “translationrepeat” (French: morif. German: B&). ** Simibu tables atreadyeti in the tilerature.Rogers’ table [S] appearedin 1926. C. Hermann’sdiagramcan be found in the fnst edition oflnferMfionuI Tables (1935) and has been reproducedin subsequenteditions [ 21. More recently (1971) Boyle [6] publisheda table for spect~ scophts. The presenttable YM aims at giving more :klformation, in a more easily afcwibls form.

symbol among the 32 point-group symbols listed along the diagonal(table XVI). The row to the left of the symbol 2/m 2/m2/mcontains four entries, which refer to the desired supergroupsabove and at the same time indicate how many times Da occurs in symmetrically nonequivalent orientations in the supergroup: twicein D4h-41m 21m21m,once in D6h-6/m 21m 2/m, once in Th - 2/m 5 and twice in Oh - 4/m 3 2/m. The group 2/m 2/m2/mis, of course, a trivial supergroup of itself and must also be considered; this fact is recalledby the I X in front of, and the I behind 2/m 2/m2/m.Thetables to be consulted are, therefore, tables I, 111,IV, VI and XI.

Note how effectively the Hermann-Mauguin notation showsthe various nonequivalentorientations that the site-symmetry point group can assumewith respect to the coordinate axes (taken along the edges of the smallestconventional crystallographicunit cell). In this respect the Hermann-Mauguinsymbols, especially in their oriented form, are obviously superior to the Schoenfliessymbols. Table XVI, of course, can be used to read off the subgroupsof any point group; they appear in the column below the givenpoint-group symbol. For the above example, 2/m2/m 2/m,each of the entries in the column refers to a subgroup(to the right) and givesthe number of different orientations in which it can occur.

4. The scaffold of symmetry elements of a space WuP At a pinch, if drawingsof the symmetry elements of the space groups are not available,the present tables can be used as a help to reconstruct the space-group diagrams,though it must be admitted such a task will not alwaysbe straightforward.In all cases,however, the tables unambiguouslyindicate the choice of the origin.

5. Spectroscopic applications The application of these tables to the vibrational spectroscopy of crystals can be made in variousways dependingon the amount of crystallographicdata availablefor the system being studied. If an X-ray

analysishas been made which includes the detennination of the space group of the crystal and the positions of all atoms in the cell (that is, a complete crystal strutture), infrared and Raman selection rule-s for the vibrational fundamentalscan be determined by the factorgroup method in any of its several forms [4). The traditional analysisdue to Bhagavantarnand Venkatarayudu [7] involvesthe determination Gf the effect of each symmetry operation of the factor group on the atoms contained in the primitive cell of the crystal. This geometricalapproach, which requires the visualizationof the appropriate symmetry operations, is greatly facilitated by reference to the diagramsin the fIItemntio?ru~Tables [2]. More recently, however, two methods have been developed which allow the factor-groupanalysisto be carried out without direct use of the geometry of the primitive cell. Both the correlation method [8] and the tables * developedby Adamsand Newton [9, 101 employ the Wyckoff letters to identify the various point-positions(sets of equivalent sites) in the crystal space group. The point-position and its multiplicity must be known for every set of symmetry-related

atoms (and for the center of gravity of a molecule or complex ion) before these methods can be applied. This information, which is givenin detail in the fnrernutiond Tables [2] ,is presented here (tables I-XV) in a more convenient and compact form. Ihe tabular form allowscomparison to’be made of the various availablepoint-positionswithin a givencrystal class,a feature that is especiallyimporiant when the space group is unknown. As illustrationsof the use of the tables, consider the molecular compounds urea 0C(NH2)2 and thiourea SC(NI-LJ2.I”neircrystals belong to space groups DL-P42,m, with 2 molecules per unit ceil,

and D$ - Prima*,, with 4 molecules per unit cell, respectively [ll] . The letter Pin the HermannMauguin symbol immediately indicates that the crystallographic unit cell is primitive and, therefore, can he used without subdivision in the factor-group analysis. This explicit slatement of the lattice type is another advantage of the Hermann-Mauguin notation over that of Schoenflies. The latter, however, provides a direct relation between the space group and the crystal class(and hence the factor group and its isomorphic point group); simply dropping the superscript of the Schoenflies symbol yields the symbol of the point group to be used in applications of the factor-group method. Thus, Du -&II and 3% -2/m 2/m 2/m are, respectively, the point groups that describe the crystal classes of urea and thiourea. The Herrnann-Mauguin symbols do not provide this information quite as readily**. It is known that both urea and thiourea have symmetry Ch- mm2 in the free state. It follows that either molecule must occupy a site of symmetry

Two orientations haw been used in the literatureto descni thiourea:Pnma and Pbnm. The latter is brought onto the former by transfotmationmatrix 010(001/1M). Pnma is the conventionalorientation of D$, in which the unitceUedgesarelabelledsoartoobeyc
I in thecrystalline state, as indicated in the column below the Cb-nvn2 entry in table XVI. In the case of urea the crystal point group is Dzd- 32m. Scanning the row to the right of the entry Du- d2m, shows that only sites of symmetries S4 - 4, C, - mm2 and D2 -222 have multiplicity 2. Hence,_C, is the site group of urea. Since the Du- 42m row points to tabibleVII, one can turn to that table and locate, in &, the site orientation (2.mm) for a point-position of multiplicity 2 with Wyckoffs letter c and site coordinates (042). The table thus provides the information necessary to complete the factor-group calculation, for example. hy the tabular method of Adams and Newton [9, IO]. Similar arguments for thiourea follow from table XVI, where possible sites of multiplicity 4 in D, are C,, C2 and Ci. The first two of these point-groups are subgroups of C, and. therefore, are acceptable. However, reference to table Xl (indicated by the Dz row in table XVI) reveals that the space group DE has no sites of symmetry C2. Therefore, the correct site group is C,, its orientation is .m. and the pointposition is 4c with coordinates (x2z). From these examples it should be apparent that the tables presented here are to be used as an adjunct to the tables of Adams and Newton [IO] or the correlation method [S] .

to be a direct method of determining crystal structure. Nevertheless, it is often possible to obtain a certain amount of structural information from the infrared and Raman spectra of crystalline systems. Such information may be e-specially useN where few or no diffraction data are available. The use of spectroscopy in assigning the molecules to their proper sites in the correct space group depends on the following arguments: 1. Thesite symmetry of a given molecule (or complex ion) is a subgroup of the point group of the free molecule (as in the vapor phase). 2. Certain vibrational fundarner&&, which are spectroscopically forbidden (infrared or Raman) for a free molecule, may become active for the molecule in a crystal. This observation indicates that the symmetry of the site is lower than that of the free molecule. 3. Splitting of a degenerate molecular vibration in the crystm shows that a~ least one axis, of order 3 or higher, of the free molecule has been removed by the (lower) symmetry of the site. 4. If a nondegenerate fundamental vibration becomes split in the spectrum of the crystal, the primitive cell must contain more than one molecule. The number of components of such a split fimdamental is a lower bound to the number of molecules per primitive cell. 5. In the case of dilute isotopic species in a crystal any splitting arises from the site effect, while in a neat crystal splittings can be due to site effect, to correlation effect, or to both. 6. The absence of coincidence of any infraredand Rarnan-active fundamental suggests that the factor group contains a center of symmetry*. However, the definition of coincidence depends on the magnitudes of experimental frequency errors; hence, this argument must be used with caution. 7. Infrared or Rarnan Polarization studies can often be used to determine the crystal system, as well as the molecular orientation within a monocrystalline sample. As an example of the application of the above principles, consider cyclopropane, C,H,. The mole* Note that infraredand Raman coincidenceis absent in cwtals of classO-432 even though theseayhls center of symmetry.

Thespecies of the six infrared-active fundamentals are underlined, while those of the 10Raman-active fundamentals are underdashed. The four vibrations of species E'arecoincident in the two spectra. Polarized infrared studies of a single crystal show conclusively that it belongs to the orthorhombic system [ 121. Data on one of the El’-species fundamentals (ut4) in the 750 cm -I region show that it exhibits separate polarization properties along three mutually perpendicular axes for each component of the absorption band. Reference to table XVI indicates that the only possible crystal classes in the orthorhombic system are Da-2/m 2/m2/m,t&,-mm2 and D2 - 222. These, then are the point groups that are isomorphic with the possible factor groups of the crystal. Furthermore, as at least one nondegenerate f_mdamental (~2, for example) is split into a doublet, the primitive cell contains at least two molecules. The determination of the site group of cyclopropane was initially made by Brecher et al. [ 121, also by infrared polarization measurements. The conclusion that the site group is C,-m was confirmed by recent spectroscopic studies [ 131 of solid solutions of CJH~ in CsD6. Furthermore, as site splitting of the E’ and E” modes was observed, the plane of symmetry of the site corresponds to one of the vertical planes of the D3,, - g2rn symmetry group of the free molecule. (Compare the two correlations L+h * C, of fig. 1.) Once the site group has been determined as C,- m, the factor group D, - 222 can be eliminated, as it contains no planes of symmetry. (Table XVI shows that there are no C,-m sites in a crystal of class D2 - 222.) Of the two remaining possible classes, D* -2/m 2/m 2/mcontains a center of symmetry, while C, - mm2 does not. Comparison of the infrared data on crystalline cyclopropane with the recent Raman data [14] shows coincidence of the vibrational fundamentals to within + 1 cm-r. Thus, although accidental coincidence cannot be completely ruled out, this result and the rule of mutual exclusion [4] provide strong support for a noncentrosymmetric structure.

with the

point group c,, even though the group Ds cannot be rigorously eliminated [ 131. Table XVI indicates that the class Cti contains two C, sites per primitive cell and that table XU should be consulted to find their orientations and the possible space grou s. There, it is seen that CL, $ ~4 ~7 c” ~1 P ~‘4 ~15 c’6 ~‘8 c20and 2uJ 2lP 2ul 2ul 2w 2lJr 2w 2U* 2w 2u G$ are the only space groups compatible with the

spyctroscopic results for cyclopropane. Thus, 218 space groups can be virtually eliminated on spectroscopic grounds alone, so that twelve possibilities remain. It has been found by Brecher et al. [12] that solid cyclopropane is denser than the liquid. Packing considerations based on reasonable molecular dimensions have been used to estimate the densities of structures belonging to the various possible space groups, and thus to eliminate structures whose densities are less than that of the liquid. All the ahove space groups other than C$,-fW2 and C&-Pmn21 are thus eliminated. Of the remaining two, CL-Anna* gives a structure denser by approximately 5%. If the space group of cyclopropane is indeed CL, reference-to table XII indicates that the pointposition is ~~(OJU)and that the molecular orientation m.. is such that the plane of symmetry of the site group is parallel to the b - c plane of the crystal and

hence parallel to the plane designated a(yz) in the CL point group. (Note, however, that this molecular orientation postulates the space group CL of the crystal to be oriented Penn?, .) The resulting correlatitn of the symmetry species is shown in fig. 1. The CL structure, which was predicted primarily from the spectroscopic data, has been discussed in detail by Brecher et al. [ 121: Recent X-ray work [ 131 on polycrystalline C& consists of a IS-line powder pattern which has been indexed on an orthorhombic cell (a = 10.0, b = 6.8, c = 5 .l A, at 85 K) so that the calculated density D, equals 0.40 or 0.81 g/cm3 for 2 or 4 molecules, respectively, in the unit cell. Choice of the higher density, which demands 4 molecules in the known unit-cell volume, and the spectroscopic requirement of site symmetry C2 -M led to the factor group Dzh - 2/m 2/m 21~. As can eassilybe seen from table XVI, this result is correct provided the unit cell is primitive. Indeed it is possible to place 4 molecules in the primitive cell for C, sites in factor group Du,. In Ch- mm?, however,the fourmoleculeswould haveto occupy a general point.position, with site symmetry Ct - 1, contraryto spectroscopic evidence*.
