The reduction of copper(ii) octafluoro- {CuII(F8Pc)} and hexadecafluorophthalocyanines {CuII(F16Pc)} by NaCpCo(CO)2 in the presence of cryptand[2.2.2] yields new crystalline {cryptand(Na+)}[CuII(F8Pc)˙3-]-·2C6H4Cl2 (1) and {cryptand(Na+)}2[CuII(F16Pc)4-]2-·C6H14 (2) salts. Together with two previously characterized salts of CuII(FxPc) (x = 8 and 16), this allows
