La. Tomachynski et al., Synthesis and properties of axially substituted zirconium(IV) and hafnium(IV) phthalocyanines with organic ligands, J PORPHYR P, 5(10), 2001, pp. 731-734
Water-soluble phthalocyaninato zirconium(IV) and hafnium(IV) complexes have
been synthesized for the first time. An increased solubility in comparison
to PcZrCl2 and PcHfCl2 was caused by the introduction of gallic, 1,8-dihyd
roxynaphthalene-3,6-disulfonic (chromotropic), and 5-sulfosalicylic acids i
n the axial position. The new compounds were characterized by H-1 NMR, IR,
UV-vis and elemental analysis. Copyright (C) 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
