The title compound, [5,10,15,20-meso-tetrakis(4-hydroxyphenyl)porphyrinato-kappa(4)N]zinc(II) tris(dibenzo-24-crown-8) methanol tetrasolvate, [Zn(C(44)H(28)N(4)O(4))].3C(24)H(32)O(8).4CH(4)O, was synthesized and its molecular structure precisely characterized by low-temperature single-crystal analysis. All the components are involved in hydrogen bonding with each other, thus forming an extensively hydrogen-bonded supramolecular lattice. The functionalized porphyrin moiety coordinates both equatorially and axially to the neighboring species.
