“…As concerns the MgPc, MnPc and ZnPc compounds, they all show similar columnar stacks of the molecules in the solid from [5][6][7]. However, in the case of the structures of their additive complexes with N-donating bases, only the biaxial (4 + 2) complexes of MgPc and of MnPc, and monoaxial (4 + 1) in case of ZnPc are known from the X-ray diffraction studies [8][9][10]. By analogy with these experimental results, one could expect that with 2-amino-3-picoline (2A3P) the respective M(II)Pc complexes, showing the similar central M coordination geometries, corresponding to coordination number 4 + 2 for Mg(II) and Mn(II), but 4 + 1 for Zn(II) would be formed.…”
