Code:
0,15,30,45 * * * *

Your script will be called every 15 minutes. The script then needs to check if it is 45 minutes
since it was last run (by means of a counter, timestamp, etc.) and only continue if it is at the 45 minute interval.

We guess you need run the script at below time:

Code:
0:00, 0:45, 1:30, 2:15m 3:00, 3:45, etc.

So you need set 3 cronjobs.

Code:
0,45 0,3,6,9,12,15,18,21 * * * Your_script
30 1,4,7,10,13,16,19,22  * * * Your_script
15 2,5,8,11,14,17,20,23  * * * Your_script

You can try this

*/45 * * * * script_name

here */45 in minutes fields indicates in every 45 minutes.
