Substituted Co(II) and Cu(II) metallophthalocyanines from new Schiff base containing pyrrole units: Synthesis, characterization and investigation of photocatalytic activity on 2,3-dichlorophenol oxidation

Synthesis and in vitro acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) enzymes activity of aldehyde and Schiff base substituted cobalt (II), copper (II), and zinc (II) phthalocyanines

“…17 Schiff bases attached to phthalocyanine complexes have found application in different research fields because of their excellent physicochemical, biological, catalytic, and electrochemical properties. [18][19][20][21][22][23] This study focuses on the design, synthesis, and characterization of six phthalocyanine complexes for biochemical assays. The peripheral aldehyde-substituted metallophthalocyanines in this study were synthesized from aldehyde-bearing phthalonitrile (a).…”

“…The chemical properties of the side groups in substituted phthalocyanines significantly influence the properties of Pcs, such as electronic absorption, solubility, aggregation, and usability in application areas 17 . Schiff bases attached to phthalocyanine complexes have found application in different research fields because of their excellent physicochemical, biological, catalytic, and electrochemical properties 18–23 …”

Peripherally, non-peripherally and axially pyrazoline-fused phthalocyanines: synthesis, aggregation behaviour, fluorescence, singlet oxygen generation, and photodegradation studies

“…[9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] In addition, these compounds are used in many modern application areas, such as electrochemistry, photocatalysis, anticancer drugs, and solar cells. [17][18][19][20] The nature of the metal ion in the center of the phthalocyanine ring, the substituents attached to the ring, and the binding positions of the substituents significantly affect the photophysical and photochemical properties of the compounds (Fig. 1).…”

Electrodeposited Benzothiazole Phthalocyanines for Corrosion Inhibition of Aluminium in Acidic Medium

“…e strong electron delocalization property of metallophthalocyanines (MPcs) allow them to be used in many applications such as in nonlinear optics, dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC), and photocatalysis and as gas sensors [1][2][3][4]. Aggregation limits the technological applications of MPcs, but this setback can be improved on (or prevented) by modifying them structurally, such as by changing the position and type of substituents [5].…”
