Wished to make diradicaloids based on perfluoronaphthalene, but a beautiful Co complex was obtained during the reduction with cobaltocene. Happy to publish it in Dalton Transactions. Have a read!

Unprecedented C–F bond cleavage in perfluoronaphthalene during cobaltocene reduction
The C–F bond activation of perfluoronaphthalene by 5-SIDipp led to the formation of dicationic salts with two fluorides (3·2HF2 ) or heptafluorodiborate (3·2B2F7) as counter-anions. The anion exchange...
