Best way of refining SO4 two-fold axis is to put al occupancies equal to 0.5 and refine like that. You may need to use newer version to deal better with atoms in special position. Have a look:

www.ysbl.york.ac.uk/YSBLprograms/index.jsp

You can go from this site to latest refmac site.
Any further problems with this refinement please let me know.

P.S. You can put restraints between symmetry related atoms (you do not need them in this case) using keywords. There are keywords to deal with them. You
can find them the same site as the latest refmac.

how to do that?

Thank you!!!

It should be more or less equivalent, but better I think to put 1S at
0.5 occ and 2O at occ = 1

At least in REFMAC the restraints to the symmetry atoms should be set up


But if you do that, some of the bond angles will be unrestrained, won't
they?: O1-S-O2 will be OK, but O1-S-O1' and O2-S-O2' will not. Or is
refmac cleverer than I think?
