Spectral properties of metallophthalocyanines and other tetraazaporphyrins are governed mainly by the Q band which originates from π-π* transitions within ring. The position intensity is important in tailoring new phthalocyanine derivatives for particular applications. Aggregation, nature central metal, π conjugation, symmetry molecules, axial, peripheral or non-peripheral substitutions affect spectra hence molecule. This review gives a brief outline on how optical spectroscopy provides...
Abstract Optoelectronically active viscous liquids are ideal for fabricating foldable/stretchable electronics owing to their excellent deformability and predictable π-unit–based optoelectronic functions, which independent of the device shape geometry. Here we show, unprecedented ‘liquid electret’ devices that exhibit mechanoelectrical electroacoustic as well stretchability, have been prepared using solvent-free liquid porphyrins. The fluidic nature free-base alkylated-tetraphenylporphyrins...
Abstract The title complex, [Co(odmbpc)], which is a single isomer and highly soluble in common organic solvents, has been prepared investigated electrochemically spectroelectrochemically dichloromethane solutions. cyclic voltammograms of this complex at concentration ca. 6 × 10−5 mol dm−3 exhibited two reversible reduction waves E1/2 = −0.67 V (vs. ferrocenium+/ ferrocene) −1.74 V, were attributed to cobalt-centered triple-bond-centered (in peripheral substituent) reductions, respectively,...
An unusual red-shift of phthalocyanine Q-band upon aggregation in non-aqueous media has been observed for antimony(III) derivative and studied by using optical absorption magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy.
An adjacent dibenzotetraazaporphyrin, in which two benzene units are fused to the pyrrole rings of tetraazaporphyrin skeleton, has been synthesized as a copper complex for first time and characterized by electronic absorption magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry spectroelectrochemistry using an optically transparent thin layer electrochemical cell. The results were compared with those phthalocyanine analogues. title compound shows intermediate characteristics between...
Abstract Spectroscopic properties of the titled complex are reported compared to other radical bis(phthalocyaninato)lanthanoid(III) complexes. Electronic, infrared, and Ce 3d XPS spectra show that cerium in is neither tri- nor tetravalent 4f electron delocalizes a phthalocyanine π orbital.

Abstract Electrochemical properties of the titled complex in dichloromethane (DCM) solutions have been investigated by cyclic and rotating-disk-electrode voltammetry. Two successive reversible one-electron reduction waves (E1/2 = −0.23 −0.65 V vs. ferrocene/ferricinium+, respectively) one irreversible oxidation wave (Epa 1.32 V) observed. These were assigned as phthalocyaninate-ring-centered. Ring-reduced species was generated both chemical electrochemical DCM characterized electronic...
