The effects of peripheral substituents and axial ligands on the electronic structure properties iron phthalocyanine, H16PcFe, have been investigated using a DFT method. Substitution by electron-withdrawing fluorinated groups alters ground state H16PcFe gives rise to large changes in ionization potentials electron affinity. For six-coordinate adducts with acetone, H2O, pyridine, coordination two weak-field leads an intermediate-spin state, while strong-field make system diamagnetic....

An enzyme-inspired phthalocyanine (Pc) complex [F64PcCo(acetone)2] is the first representative of a novel class robust homogeneous catalysts. This couples aryl and alkyl phosphanes with acetone to catalytically produce ylides (the structure shows ylide coordinated F64PcCo unit: F green, N blue, O red, C gray, P yellow) water under ambient conditions using only air, route that avoids classical use halogenated intermediates.
