Abstract

Metal-free and metallophthalocyanines (Zn, Co) substituted with four carboxybiphenyloxy groups on the peripheral positions were prepared from 4-(4′-carboxybiphenyloxy)phthalonitrile. Esterification of all of the biphenylcarboxylic acid groups of metal-free phthalocyanine with hexanol afforded 2,9,16,23-tetrakis(4′-carbhexyloxybiphenyloxy) phthalocyanine. These new compounds have been characterised by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR, UV-Vis and mass spectroscopies.
