Nucleophilic substitution in 4-bromo-5-nitrophthalonitrile: XIV. Synthesis and properties of 4,5-bis[4-(1-methyl-1-phenylethyl)phenoxy]phthalonitrile and phthalocyanines therefrom

Resumo

4,5-Bis[4-(1-methyl-1-phenylethyl)phenoxy]phthalonitrile was prepared by the nucleophilic substitution of the nitro group and bromine in 4-bromo-5-nitrophathalonitrile. The product was used to synthesize the corresponding octasubstituted phthalocyanine, as well as its magnesium, copper, zinc, cobalt, and nickel complexes. The spectral properties of the synthesized phthalocyanines were studied.
