Abstract
X-Ray analysis of 2-bis{meso-[nickel(II)octaethylporphyrinyl]}ethene h as revealed that the compound has nonplanar structure and the nickel-c oordination planes of porphyrin rings are close to perpendicular (72.5 -degrees) to the plane of the central double bond. Both porphyrin ring s have saddle-shaped structure due to the steric repulsion between eth yl substituents.
