Synthesis, characterization, and photophysical properties of novel ball-type dinuclear and mononuclear containing four 1,1'-binaphthyl-8,8'-diol bridged metallophthalocyanines with long triplet state lifetimes.

The syntheses of new ball-type dinuclear Si(IV)(CH(3)COO)(2) and Ti(IV)O phthalocyanines and two different mononuclear Zn(II) and Ti(IV)O phthalocyanines containing four 1,1'-binaphthyl-8,8'-diol substituents on the peripheral positions are described. The structures of these compounds were characterized using the elemental analyzes, UV-Vis, FT-IR, (1)H NMR and mass spectroscopies. The Φ(F) values are 0.

The synthesis and photophysical properties of peripherally and non-peripherally substituted ball-type Mg(II) and Zn(II) phthalocyanines.

Newly synthesized ball-type Zn(II) and Mg(II) phthalocyanines containing four 1,1'-binaphthol substituents at peripheral and non-peripheral positions are presented. The structures of the synthesized compounds were characterized by using elemental analysis, UV-vis, FT-IR, (1)H-NMR and mass spectroscopies. The Φ(F) values were 0.

2-[(E)-4-Quinolylmethyl-ideneamino]-phenol.

In the title compound, C(16)H(12)N(2)O, the dihedral angle between the two aromatic ring systems is 68.54 (5)°. The mol-ecular packing is stabilized by intra- and inter-molecular O-H⋯N and intra-molecular C-H⋯N hydrogen-bond inter-actions.
