title: Bis (pyridine) (2,3,12,13-tetrabromo-5, 10, 15, 20-tetraphenylporphyrin) iron (II) pyridine solvate.
abstract: The title compound, (C(44)H(24)Br(4)N(4))(C(5)H(5)N)(2)Fe·C(5)H(5)N, is located on a two-fold axis that passes through Fe and the pyridine ligands. Only slight asymmetry, 0.010 Å elongation due to the Br substituents, is seen in the Fe-N(p) distances. The pyridine ligands are twisted 19.2° from each other.
