Crystal structure of (methanol-κO)[5,10,15,20-tetra-kis-(2-amino-phen-yl)porphyrinato-κ⁴N]zinc(II)-chloro-form-methanol (1/1/1).

ABSTRACT: In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Zn(C₄₄H₃₂N₈)(CH₃OH)]·CHCl₃·CH₃OH, the Zn^II cation is coordinated by four porphyrin N and one methanol O atom within a slightly distorted square-pyramidal environment and is shifted out of the porphyrin plane towards the direction of the methanol mol-ecule. The methyl group of the coordinating methanol mol-ecule is disordered over two sets of sites. The porphyrin backbone is nearly planar and the phenyl rings are almost perpendicular to the porphyrin plane. As is typical for picket-fence porphyrins, all four ortho substituents of the meso-phenyl groups (here the amino groups) are facing to the same side of the porphyrin mol-ecule. In the crystal structu
