title: (2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-Octaethylporphinato)perchloratomanganese(III).
abstract: The crystal structure of [Mn(OEP)(OClO3)] (where OEP = C36H44N4) has been determined. The axial Mn-O bond length is 2.183 (2) A and the equatorial Mn-Np bond lengths have an average value of 2.000 (5) A. The molecules form weak dimers in the solid state with interring distances of 3.49 A and a lateral shift of 3.27 A. The compound is found to be isomorphous with the iron derivative [Fe(OEP)(OClO3)]. A brief comparison of the structural parameters for the two molecules is given.
