Electrodeposition of Manganese (III) Phthalocyanine/ Reduced Graphene Oxide for Asymmetric Supercapacitor Devices.

In this study, two novel tetra-substituted manganese (III) phthalocyanines bearing (9H-carbazol-2-yl)oxy groups on peripheral (1) or non-peripheral (2) positions were prepared and used for modification of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) by applying a simple one-step electrodeposition technique for the first time. The manganese (III) phthalocyanines (MnPcs) were electropolymerized and graphene oxide was electrochemically converted into reduced graphene oxide simultaneously. Subsequently, an rGO-MnPc hybrid structure was formed directly on the NiF electrode (substrate) via layer-by-layer assembly.

Sonophotochemical and photochemical efficiency of thiazole-containing metal phthalocyanines and their gold nanoconjugates.

This study presents the synthesis of some metal {M = Zn(II), Lu(III), Si(IV)} phthalocyanines bearing chlorine and 2-(4-methylthiazol-5-yl) ethoxy groups at peripheral or axial positions. The newly synthesized metal phthalocyanines were characterized by applying FT-IR, H NMR, mass, and UV-Vis spectroscopic approaches. Additionally, the surface of gold nanoparticles was modified with zinc(II) and silicon(IV) phthalocyanines.

Supercapacitive properties of carbazole-containing cobalt(II) phthalocyanines/reduced graphene oxide composites.

This study aims to compare the effect of substituents (position and number) and reduced graphene oxide on the supercapacitive properties of cobalt(II) phthalocyanines. For this purpose, three new tetra- and octa-substituted cobalt(II) phthalocyanines bearing 9-carbazol-2-yloxy groups on peripheral or non-peripheral positions (1-3) were synthesized. The characterization of the resultant cobalt(II) phthalocyanines was carried out by applying several spectroscopic approaches.
