Description
Summary:<p>The encapsulation of a fluoride ion in a trigonal prismatic Cu<small><sup>II</sup></small><small><sub>6</sub></small>-pyrazolato cage results in a small expansion of the Cu<small><sub>6</sub></small>-host. The structural, electronic and magnetic features of the Cu<small><sub>6</sub></small>-complex, containing an endohedral fluoride in the rare &mu;<small><sub>6</sub></small>-F coordination mode, are compared with those of the parent complex with a vacant Cu<small><sub>6</sub></small>-cage.</p>
