Abstract

X-Ray analyses of free base, zinc, and nickel complexes of 2,3;7,8;12,13;17,18-tetrakis(6,13-dihydro-6,13-pentaceno)-21H,23H-porphine revealed that the porphyrin chromophores adopted a heavily-saddled conformation by interlocking of the biconcave porphyrins in the crystals containing halobenzenes as crystalline solvents, while the ring was almost flat in the crystals obtained from benzene or from chlorobenzene and isopropanol.
