Metal-free phthalocyanine 3 and its metallophthalocyanine derivatives 4, 5, and 6 (M = Zn, Co, and Ni) substituted with four 21-membered pentathiadiaza macrocycles were synthesized and their structures identified by elemental analysis, IR, 1 H NMR, mass, and UV-Vis spectroscopy techniques. The aggregation properties of phthalocyanines 4, 5, and 6 were investigated in different solvents and at different concentrations of dimethylformamide.
