Abstract

Abstract Two crystalline compounds based on the Zn-tetra (4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin building block have been prepared and structurally analysed by x-ray diffraction in order to ellucidate the characteristic supramolecular aggregation modes of this functionalized metalloporphyrin moiety. Crystals of the 1:1 complex with sec-phenethyl alcohol (1) are monoclinic, space group I2/a (No. 15), a = 14.420(1), b = 24.678(2), c = 33.688(2) A, β = 90.03(2)°, Dc = 1.082 g/cm3, Z = 8, R = 0.080 for 3053 data. Those of the 1:3 complex with dimethylsulphoxide (2) are monoclinic, space group P21/n (No. 14), a = 14.881(1), b = 8.986(2), c = 37.550(3) A, β = 94.21(1)°, Dc = 1.444 g/cm3, Z = 4, R = 0.093 for 4200 data. The two compounds consist of nearly square-pyramidal five-coordinate metalloporphyrin species, molecules of the sec-phenethyl alcohol (in 1) and dimethylsulphoxide (in 2) linking to the metal center at the axial site. In 2, two additional molecules of dimethylsulphoxide associate through H-bonds to the termin...
