I know of no reliable method (aside from having a swatch book and
using the mark-one eyeball).  That being said, try this:
http://rgb.to/hex/3e479a

Or if you search the web for "HEX to Pantone", you will see some other
tools pop up.

Also, (I think) Pantone used to have a color lookup on their own site.
But I can't find it anymore.

But once again - I doubt any of these tools are super-reliable.  This
is from someone who used to mix Pantone ink colors.

HTH,
