Dear Hauke, others pointed out that there is little suspicious about your data, and you can probably continue refining in P21. You also have a reasonably large unit cell, so stick to the defaults regarding Rfree selection.
4.5A resolution is just quite hard to work with, but otherwise I don't think there is anything problematic about your data.
