The _diffrn_ambient_pressure was taken from the original data block
header, after comparison with the paper text and supplementary
material.

When more than one structure was present in the sn0021.cif file for a
given pressure, the structure with the minimal _refine_ls_R_factor_all
value was taken as the best one, and all others marked with the
'_cod_suboptimal_structure yes' tag.

Changing (with the help of Perl) all _diffrn_radiation_source values in
the files that were reportedly colected on the HASYLAB D3 beamline
(Hamburg) from 'fine-focus sealed tube' to synchrotron.

The command was:

perl -i -ne \
    "s/'fine-focus sealed tube'/synchrotron/; \
    print unless /_diffrn_radiation_type|_diffrn_radiation_monochromator/" \
    *d3*.cif \

    21.85split.cif \
