M. Kandaz et O. Bekaroglu, Synthesis and properties of copper(II) phthalocyanines with monoazacrown and crown ethers as peripheral substituents, J PORPHYR P, 3(5), 1999, pp. 339-345
Soluble and less soluble phthalocyaninatocopper(II) derivatives (4a and 4b)
were prepared from the corresponding 7-[(4'-benzo-15-crown-5)oyl]-15, 16-d
ibromo-2,3,6,7,8,9,11,12-octahydro-5H-benzo[e]-12-octahydro-5H-benzo[e]-[1,
4,10,13,7] tetraoxaazacyclopentadecine (3a) and 7-(2'-tosylaminoethyl)-15,
16-dibromo-2,3,6,7,8,9,11,12-octahydro-5H-benzo[e]-[1,4,10,13,7] tetraoxaaz
acyclopentadecine (3b) and CuCN in pyridine. A less soluble novel multifunc
tionalized scorpiand macrocycle-substituted phthalocyanine (4c) in which an
NH2CH2CH2- chain is appended to a monoazacrown ether ring was obtained by
detosylation of 4b with concentrated sulfuric acid. Copyright (C) 1999 John
