The solvated title compound, [Fe(C44H28N4)(C4H6N2)(C7H7NO)]·CH2Cl2, is a porphyrin complex containing an octahedrally coordinated FeII atom with 1-methylimidazole [Fe—N = 2.0651 (17) Å] and o-nitrosotoluene ligands at the axial positions. The o-nitrosotoluene ligand is N-bound to iron(II) [Fe—N = 1.8406 (18)Å and Fe—N—O = 122.54 (14)°]. The axial N—Fe—N linkage is almost linear, with a bond angle of 177.15 (7)°. One phenyl group of the porphyrin ligand is disordered over two orientations in a 0.710 (3):0.290 (3) ratio. The dichloromethane solvent molecule was severely disordered and its contribution to the scattering was removed with the SQUEEZE routine [van der Sluis & Spek (1990). Acta Cryst. A46, 194–201].

The title compound, [Zn2(C21H25N2)2(OH)2], is a binuclear zinc complex formed by two bidentate β-diketiminate (nacnac) ligands and two μ-hydroxide O atoms, bridging two mononuclear units into a centrosymmetric dimeric unit. Each Zn2+ cation is coordinated by two N-donor atoms from the nacnac ligand and two O-donor atoms of hydroxide anions to give a distorted tetrahedral coordination environment. The Zn—O bond lengths are 1.9643 (13) and 2.0022 (14) Å, and the two Zn—N bond lengths are 1.9696 (14) and 1.9823 (14) Å. The distance between the two Zn2+ cations in the dimer is 2.9420 (4) Å. Although hydroxide groups are present in the complex, no classical hydrogen-bonding interations are observed because of the bulky β-diketiminate ligands.
