TY - JOUR TI - Newly Soluble and Non-Aggregated Copper(II) and Tin(II) Phthalocyanines: Synthesis, Characterization and Investigation of Photophysical and Photochemical-Responsive AB - This work presents the synthesis and characterization of non-aggregated and highly soluble copper(II) and tin(II) phthalocyaninessubstituted with 2,6-dimethoxyphenoxy groups at the non-peripheral (alpha) and peripheral (beta) positions. The phthalocyanines havebeen characterized by common spectroscopic techniques. They show excellent solubility and non-aggregated species in common organicsolvents such as dimethylsulfoxide, dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, toluene, acetonitrile, chloroform and dichloromethane, whichmake them candidates to use for many applications in different fields of science and technology. The effects positions of substituenton the phthalocyanine skeleton and the variety of central metal ions on the phthalocyanine of aggregation and on their spectroscopicproperties were determined in different solvents as mentioned above. The novel synthesized copper phthalocyanines were not evaluatedfor fluorescence, photophysical and photochemical properties due to transition metal and paramagnetic behavior of central metalin the phthalocyanine cavity. The effects of substituent and their positions on the tin(II) phthalocyanines’ on their photophysical(fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes) and photochemical properties (singlet oxygen generation and photodegradation underlight irradiation) were also investigated and reported in dimethylsulfoxide for the first time.
