This porphyrinate macrocycle of the title compound exhibits a strong saddle and moderate ruffling deformations. In the crystal, the individual manganese porphyrin complex cations and the tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate anions are arranged in alternating planes stacked along [001].

In the title compound, the chlorido­(5,10,15,20-tetra­phenyl­porphyrinato)manganese(III) complex and the hydrogen-bonded dimer of 2-amino­pyridine mol­ecules are linked together by weak N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds into chains along the a axis.

The crystal packing of the FeII porphyrin derivative results in channels parallel to [010] where the n-hexane solvent mol­ecules are located. UV–vis data of a CHCl3 solution and the solid of the title compound are also reported.
