title: 5,10,15,20-Tetra-kis(3,5-difluoro-phen-yl)porphyrin.
abstract: The crystal structure of the title compound, C(44)H(22)F(8)N(4), shows an unusual non-planar geometry of the porphyrin ring although the mol-ecule is free of steric crowding around the periphery of the macrocycle. The mol-ecular packing exhibits weak inter-molecular hydrogen bonding (C-H⋯F) and C-H⋯π inter-actions. The molecular symmetry is .
