S. Lipstman, S. Muniappan and I. Goldberg

Abstract: The title compound, [Zn(C₄₄H₂₈Cl₄N₄)], is a four-coordinate zinc-porphyrin complex, with 3-chlorophenyl substituents at the meso positions of the planar metalloporphyrin core. The molecules are located on crystallographic inversion centres, exhibiting partial orientational disorder of the aryl residues. The crystal packing is stabilized by van der Waals forces and intermolecular ClCl interactions.
