title: meso-[5,10,15,20-Tetra-kis(4-cyano-phen-yl)porphyrinato]zinc.
abstract: In the title compound, [Zn(C(48)H(24)N(8))], the coordination environment of the Zn(2+) ion (site symmetry [Formula: see text]) is octa-hedral, with four indole N atoms forming the equatorial plane and the axial positions being occupied by N atoms from the cyanide groups of neighbouring molecules. In the crystal, adjacent mol-ecules are assembled into a two-dimensional supra-molecular framework parallel to ([Formula: see text]01) via the coodination bonding. Topology analysis reveals this compound to be a (4,4)-connected network.
