TLDR
The title complex, [Cu(C68H44N4)]·C2H2Cl4, exhibits nearly square-planar geometry around the CuII centre and the macrocyclic ring is almost planar, forming a clathrate-like structure.
Abstract
The title complex, [Cu(C68H44N4)]·C2H2Cl4, exhibits nearly square-planar geometry around the CuII centre and the macrocyclic ring is almost planar. The porphyrin mol­ecule has an approximate non-crystallographic inversion centre (Ci), and a non-crystallographic twofold rotation axis (C2) within the CuII–porphyrin ring plane. Further, it has non-crystallographic twofold rotation axis and mirror plane (Cs) symmetry perpendicular to the mol­ecular plane. The mol­ecular packing of the complexes and the solvent molecules shows weak inter­molecular C—H⋯π, C—H⋯Cl and C—H⋯N inter­actions, forming a clathrate-like structure.

Porphyrin sponges: conservative of host structure in over 200 porphyrin-based lattice clathrates

TL;DR: In this article, molecular packing in over 200 tetraarylporphyrin-based lattice clathrates reveals a strong conservation of host structure and several modes of intercalation are detected.

Mixed Substituted Porphyrins: Structural and Electrochemical Redox Properties

TL;DR: The dramatic variation in redox potentials and large red-shift in the absorption bands in mixed substituted porphyrins have been explained on the basis of the nonplanarity of the macrocycle and substituent effects.
