title: Methoxy[meso-5,10,15,20-tetrakis-(2,6-difluorophenyl)porphyrinato]-iron(III), [Fe(TDFPP)(OCH3)].
abstract: The crystal structure of the title compound, [Fe(C(44)H(20)F(8)N(4))(CH(3)O)], has been determined. The Fe atom lies 0.485 (1) A out of the plane of the four N atoms to which it is coordinated and from the inversion centre at the origin of the unit cell. The methoxy group is axially coordinated to the Fe atom with O-Fe-N angles of 106.3 (2) and 102.4 (2) degrees, a C-O-Fe angle of 128.3 (5) degrees and an Fe-O distance of 1.788 (5) A. Difluorophenyl rings are tilted from the porphyrin (por) plane with torsion angles of -68.1 (6) and 77.7 (5) degrees across the two C(por)-C-C-C(ar) systems.
