title: Sandwiched sodium and half-sandwiched copper carbonyl complexes featuring polyfluorinated tris(triazolyl)borate [HB(3,5-(CF(3))(2)Tz)(3)](-).
abstract: Fluorinated tris(triazolyl)borate [HB(3,5-(CF(3))(2)Tz)(3)](-) (Tz = triazolyl) affords the isolation of [Na(THF)(6)]{[HB(3,5-(CF(3))(2)Tz)(3)](2)Na} with a ligand sandwiched sodium ion and a copper carbonyl complex [HB(3,5-(CF(3))(2)Tz)(3)]CuCO with a high C-O stretching frequency.
