Concurrent anion⋯π interactions between a perchlorate ion and two π-acidic aromatic rings, namely pentafluorophenol and 1,3,5-triazine

The rational design of a ligand containing two electron-poor pi-rings, i.e. a triazine and a pentafluorophenoxy groups, has allowed the preparation of a copper complex where both the anticipated anion...pi interactions are present.
