✦ Synopsis

In recent years great progress has been observed in the field of structure solution from powder data. Structures as complex as 20-30 atoms in an asymmetric unit are solved almost routinely in the semiautomatic black box mode, useful for non-crystallographers. In this paper, as an example of investigations which may be of interest for catalysis, an ab initio structure solution of 1,3-phenylenediammonium trimolybdate, solved by a combination of novel XRPD methods, is presented.
