A X-ray quality crystal was selected under ambient conditions
and covered with PARATONE oil
The crystal was mounted and centered in the X-ray beam by
using a video camera.The crystal evaluation and data
collection were performed on APEX-2 CCD diffractometer
with the detector to crystal distance of 5cm. 
The initial cell constants were obtained from three series of
OMEGA scans at different starting angles. Each series consisted
of 30 frames collected at intervals of 0.3 in a 10 range about
OMEGA with the exposure time of 10 seconds per frame. The 
obtained reflections were successfully indexed by an automated
indexing routine built to APEX2 program package. The final cell 
constants were calculated from a set of strong reflections from
the actual data collection.  

The data were collected using the full sphere routine by
collecting four sets of frames with 0.3 scans in ω with an
exposure time 10 sec per frame till resolution of 0.69 Å. 
Data were truncated to the resolution with  statistically 
reasonable R~σ~.

 Reflections were merged by SHELXL according to the crystal 
 class for the calculation of statistics and refinement. 
  
 _reflns_Friedel_fraction is defined as the number of unique 
 Friedel pairs measured divided by the number that would be 
 possible theoretically, ignoring centric projections and 
 systematic absences.

The systematic absences in the diffraction data were consistent for the
stated space group. The position of almost all non-hydrogen atoms
were found by direct methods. The remaining atoms were located in an 
alternating series of least-squares cycles on difference Fourier maps.
All non-hydrogen atoms were refined in full-matrix anisotropic approximation.


All expected hydrogen atoms were placed on a calculated positions and were
 refined in isotropic approximation using "riding" model. The Uiso(H)
 values have been set at 1.2  - 1.5  times the Ueq value of the
 carrier atom.

Perchlorate counter-ion is disordered by inversion center and it was
geometrically restrained to make all CL - O and 
O - O distances equal. All displacement parameters were also restrained
 to be  the same for perchlorate oxygen atoms.

Final results were tested with CHECKCIF routine and all A-warnings (if any)
were addressed on the very top of this file.

 All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) 
 are estimated using the full covariance matrix.  The cell esds are taken 
 into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles 
 and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only 
 used when they are defined by crystal symmetry.  An approximate (isotropic) 
 treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.
