S. Lipstman, S. George and I. Goldberg

Abstract: The title compound, [Zn(C₄₄H₂₈N₄)(C₇H₇NO)], is a square-pyramidal five-coordinate zinc-porphyrin complex with -acetylpyridine as the apical ligand. The intermolecular packing involves van der Waals forces, close - stacking and C-H contacts, revealing an interesting pairing of adjacent molecules related by inversion.
