New powder X-ray diffraction data of adenosine C10H13N5O4 were reported: ce
ll parameters are a=4.8386(4) Angstrom, b= 10.2919(4) Angstrom, c= 1 1.8555
(4) Angstrom, beta= 99.298(5)degrees volume 582.63(4)Angstrom for the monoc
linic space group P2(1). The strongest lines are: 7.723 (100), 5.085 (50),
5.851 (45), 4.710 (11), 3.881 (10), 3.899 (9), 3.292 (9), and 3.261 (9). Re
ported intensities are validated by Rietveld analysis. The data consist of
measured positions and intensities and cover an angular range up to 75 degr
ees 2 theta and are significantly better than PDF 35-1977. Experimental, ca
lculated, and difference patterns are also reported. (C) 2000 International
