There has recently been much improvement in the description of hydrogen atoms from X-ray data through new refinement techniques (such as Hirshfeld Atom Refinement) or new techniques such as dynamic quantum crystallography. Accurate determination of hydrogen atom parameters is of utmost importance for properties of intermolecular interactions such as interaction energies, which reflects on materials properties.
