Sulfo derivatives of cobalt phthalocyanine containing naphthalene fragments have been synthesized, and their self-association and molecular complexation with pyridine in aqueous solution have been studied by spectrophotometry. The dissociation constants of the dimeric associates have been determined. The effects of the number of functional groups in the peripheral substituents and of the axial ligand on the phthalocyanine dimerization process have been revealed.

Enhancement of the catalytic activity of phthalocyanine catalysts by immobilizing them on polymer matrix has been studied. It has been found that the immobilization of cobalt(II) phthalocyanines on polymers enhances their catalytic activity in the oxidation of sodium diethyldithiocarbamate by air oxygen under mild conditions.

Novel complexes of cobalt(II) with sulfonated derivatives of phthalocyanines are synthesized. The influence of the sulfonated group's number in peripheral substituent on solubility of macrocycle and ability to form ordered structures in solution is showed. Transition from H-aggregates to monomeric phthalocyanine structures and sandwich-type dimers was found during formation of metallophthalocyanine complexes with 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane. The catalytic activity of metallophthalocyanines was studied on the model of Merox process.
