Nucleophilic Substitution of 4-Bromo-5-nitrophthalodinitrile: XVII. Synthesis and Properties of Bifunctionally Substituted Metal Phthalocyanines with Aryloxy and Nitro Groups

Abstract

By substitution of bromine in 4-bromo-5-nitrophthalonitrile 4-(aryloxy)-5-nitrophthalonitriles were synthesized and, on their basis, cobalt and copper tetra(4-aryloxy-5-nitro)phthalo-cyanines were prepared. Spectral properties of the obtained octasubstituted phthalocyanines were investigated.
