34. The search criteria were the following: 1) the interacting atom with any pentafluorobenzene derivative was either S, N, O, F Cl, Br, or I; 2) the type of nonbonding contact was either intramolecular or intermolecular; 3) the nonbonding contact was defined by distance criteria, i.e. less than the sum of van der Waals radii; 4) a hit was stored when a nonbonding contact existed between the interacting atom and all six carbon atoms of the aromatic ring; and 5) for the search of anion-π interactions a negative charge was defined explicitly on the interacting atom.
