Abstract
The solubilities of eleven Zn complexes of 5,15-disubstituted octaalkylporp hyrins with aryl and alkyl substituents of various natures were measured in benzene, ethanol, and propanol at 298 K. The solubilities of the correspon ding metal-free porphyrins in these solvents were determined by us earlier. The effect of Zn(II) coordination on the solubilities of 5,15-disubstitute d porphyrins was found to substantially depend on the nature of the substit uents.
