Popis: Crystal structure analyses of (rhodochlorinato-15-acetic trimethyl ester)copper(II) 3 and (31, 32-didehydro-rhodochlorinato-15-formic acid trimethyl ester)copper(II) 4 reveal intriguing multiple macrocycle conformations of the metallochlorins in the crystal. The observed conformations range from almost planar macrocycles to distorted macrocycles with individual atoms being displaced up to 0.72 Å from the mean plane. The nonplanar macrocycles show a S4-ruffled macrocycie distortion with significant distortions for the meso-carbons and tilting of the Cb- Cb axes. A comparison with the related free base porphyrins rhodoporphyrin-15- acetic acid trimethyl ester 5 and rhodoporphyrin dimethyl ester 6 shows that the conformational distortion is due to the mixing of metal and substituent effects, hydroporphyrin character, and packing forces.
