- Description
- Zinc 2, (3)-tri-(phenylthio)-2, (3)-carboxy phthalocyanine (ZnPc(COOH)(SPh)3), zinc 2, (3)-tetra-(phenylthio) phthalocyanine (ZnPc(SPh)4) and 2, (3)-tetra-(phenylthio) phthalocyanine (H2Pc(SPh)4) were synthesized and their photophysical behavior were compared with those of a number of zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) derivatives. ZnPc(COOH)(SPh)3 and ZnPc(SPh)4 had similar fluorescence (ΦF=0.14) and triplet state (ΦT=0.65) quantum yields in dimethylsulfoxide, hence showing no effects of the replacement of one of the phenylthio groups with a carboxylic acid group. ZnPc(COOH)(SPh)3 displayed a slightly shorter triplet lifetime (τT=331 μs) than ZnPc (τT=350 μs) in DMSO, but within the range of ZnPc derivatives. The triplet lifetime for ZnPc(COOH)(SPh)3 is much longer than for the symmetrical derivative (ZnPc(SPh)4) with τT=149 μs in DMSO.
