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...[pi] [shortest contact = 3.148 (13) Å] and [pi]-[pi] [shortest centroid-centroid separation = 3.689 (5) Å] interactions further link the components to form a three-dimensional network.
