Abstract

The title compound, [Ag(C(72)H(84)N(4)O(4))], crystallizes with the Ag(II) cation on a centre of symmetry. The macrocyclic 24-membered ring core is planar with a mean deviation of 0.0311 (15) Å and the four-coordinate Ag(II) cation fits into its center, at 2.0814 (19) and 2.0872 (19) Å, from the surrounding pyrrole-N atoms, in agreement with what is found in related compounds. The p-heptyl-oxyphenyl groups are rotated 75.51 (5) and 84.45 (8)° with respect to the porphyrin mean plane, due to steric hindrance with the pyrrole-H atoms of the macrocycle.
