1,10-Phenanthrolinium 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzoate–2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzoic acid (1/2)

Abstract

In the title compound, C12H9N2+·C7F5O2−·2C7HF5O2, the cation and anion are linked by an N—H...O hydrogen bond. The neutral molecules bond to the anion via O—H...O hydrogen bonds to form associations of one cation, one anion and two neutral molecules. Intermolecular C—H...O, C—H...F, F...F [shortest contact = 2.768 (8) Å], F...π [shortest contact = 3.148 (13) Å] and π–π [shortest centroid–centroid separation = 3.689 (5) Å] interactions further link the components to form a three-dimensional network.
