Crystal structure of chlorido­(5,10,15,20-tetra­phenyl­porphyrinato-κ(4) N)manganese(III) 2-amino­pyridine disolvate

In the title compound, [Mn(C(44)H(28)N(4))Cl]·2C(5)H(6)N(2), the Mn(III) centre is coordinated by four pyrrole N atoms [averaged Mn—N = 2.012 (4) Å] of the tetra­phenyl­porphyrin mol­ecule and one chloride axial ligand [Mn—Cl = 2.4315 (7) Å] in a square-pyramidal geometry. The porphyrin macrocycle exhibits a non-planar conformation with major ruffling and saddling distortions. In the crystal, two independent solvent mol­ecules form dimers through N—H⋯N hydrogen bonding. In these dimers, one amino N atom has a short Mn⋯N contact of 2.642 (1) Å thus completing the Mn environment in the form of a distorted octa­hedron, and another amino atom generates weak N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, which link further all mol­ecules into chains along the a axis.
