Crystal structure of 5,15-bis-(4-methyl-phen-yl)-10,20-bis-(4-nitro-phen-yl)porphyrin nitro-benzene disolvate. Acta Crystallographica Section E: Crystallographic Communications, 74(Pt 1), 55-58. https://doi.org/10.1107/S2056989017017868https://doi.org/10.1107/S2056989017017868http://nur.nu.edu.kz/handle/123456789/4289The whole mol-ecule of the title porphyrin, C46H32N6O4·2C6H5NO2, which crystallized as a nitro-benzene disolvate, is generated by inversion symmetry. The porphyrin macrocycle is almost planar, the maximum deviation from the mean plane of the non-hydrogen atoms is 0.097 (2) Å. The aryl rings at the meso positions are inclined to this mean plane by 74.84 (6)° for the nitro-phenyl rings and 73.37 (7)° for the tolyl rings. In the crystal, the porphyrin mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [100]. The solvent mol-ecules are also linked by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [100]. Inter-digitation of the p-tolyl groups along the c axis creates rectangular channels in which the solvent mol-ecules are located.enAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 United StatesArticle
