Figure 4
Hirshfeld surface mapped with shape-index. (a) The red squares highlight regions of large red and blue triangles over two xylyl groups (parallel to the paper). (b) After a 90° rotation of (a), there is a small red–blue triangle pair (red circle) suggesting a ππ stacking inter­action. The other xylyl ring has a neighboring PF6 ion, thus no ππ stacking inter­actions. (c) A zoomed in view of the red circle in (b), which shows the location of the small red–blue triangle pair aligns with the C—C bond of the two inter­acting xylyl rings.
