      This paper achieves a classification of smooth \(SL(n,\mathbb{C})\)-actions on closed connected \((2n-1)\)-manifolds, \(n\geq 3\). Every such \(SL(n,\mathbb{C})\)- manifold has to be equivariantly diffeomorphic to either one of a family of actions on a lens space \(L^{2n-1}(p)\), indexed by the reals and extending the natural \(SU(n)\)-action, or to one of a family of actions on \(P^{n-1}(\mathbb{C})\times S^ 1\), indexed by smooth \(R\)-actions on \(S^ 1\) and extending the natural \(SU(n)\)-action on \(P^{n-1}(\mathbb{C})\) and the trivial one on \(S^ 1\).
