Single crystals of the title compound, [K(C18H36N2O6)][Mn(C44H24Cl4N4)(C7H7S)]·2C4H8O, were obtained by the solvent evaporation method. The MnII cation is coordinated by four pyrrole N atoms (Np) of the porphyrin ring and one S atom of the apical 4-methyl-benzene-thiol-ate ligand with the average Mn-Np and the apical Mn-S bond lengths being 2.160 (9) and 2.4642 (8) Å, respectively. Two tetra-hydro-furan solvent mol-ecules and a potassium cation chelated inside a [2.2.2]cryptand (4,7,13,16,21,24-hexa-oxa-1,10-di-aza-bicyclo[8.8.8]hexa-cosa-ne) are also present.
Keywords: 4-methylbenzenethiolate; MnII porphyrin; crystal structure.
