A novel family of metal-free and metal phthalocyanines containing triarylamine moieties are synthesized. These compounds are well soluble and readily form stable amorphous glasses with high glass transition temperatures, as evidenced by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction, and constitute a new class of amorphous molecular materials.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
