Schiff-base macrocycles 1, which have a crown ether-like interior, form ionic nematic lyotropic liquid crystals in various organic solvents when functionalized with long alkoxy substituents and complexed to diverse ammonium and alkali metal salts. From X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy studies, and by comparison with the organization of macrocycles functionalized with shorter chains, these macrocycles assemble into lyotropic liquid crystals where the macrocycles are stacked and the cation is included in their interiors.

The d1Dplot and d2Dplot computer programs have been developed as user-friendly tools for the inspection and processing of 1D and 2D X-ray diffraction (XRD) data, respectively. d1Dplot provides general tools for data processing and includes the ability to generate comprehensive 2D plots of multiple patterns to easily follow transformation processes. d2Dplot is a full package for 2D XRD data. Besides general processing tools, it includes specific data analysis routines for the application of the through-the-substrate methodology [Rius et al. IUCrJ 2015, 2, 452–463]. Both programs allow the creation of a user compound database for the identification of crystalline phases. The software can be downloaded from the ALBA Synchrotron Light Source website and can be used free of charge for non-commercial and academic purposes.

In this paper,AUSPEX, a new software tool for experimental X-ray data analysis, is presented. Exploring the behaviour of diffraction intensities and the associated estimated uncertainties facilitates the discovery of underlying problems and can help users to improve their data acquisition and processing in order to obtain better structural models. The program enables users to inspect the distribution of observed intensities (or amplitudes) against resolution as well as the associated estimated uncertainties (sigmas). It is demonstrated howAUSPEXcan be used to visually and automatically detect ice-ring artefacts in integrated X-ray diffraction data. Such artefacts can hamper structure determination, but may be difficult to identify from the raw diffraction images produced by modern pixel detectors. The analysis suggests that a significant portion of the data sets deposited in the PDB contain ice-ring artefacts. Furthermore, it is demonstrated how other problems in experimental X-ray data caused, for example, by scaling and data-conversion procedures can be detected byAUSPEX.
