Published: March 2024

Palladium phthalocyanine (PdPc) nanowires (NWs) were developed to achieve the gas sensing of NO in the sub-parts-per-million (ppm) range. Non-substituted metal phthalocyanine are well known for their p-type semiconducting behavior, which is responsible for its gas-sensing capabilities. Nanofabrication of the PdPc NWs was performed by physical vapor deposition (PVD) on an interdigitated gold electrode (IDE). The coordination of palladium in the structure was confirmed with UV-Vis spectroscopy. Gas-sensing experiments for NO detection were undertaken at different sensed gas concentrations from 4 ppm to 0.5 ppm at room temperature. In this work, the responses at different gas concentrations are reported. In addition, structural studies of the PdPc NWs with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron-dispersive X-ray diffraction (EDS) are shown.

Four photosensitizers PS1a-PS4a consisting in multicationic ruthenium(II) phthalocyanines (RuPcs) have been evaluated in photodynamic inactivation (PDI) of multiresistant microorganisms. The RuPcs, bearing from 4 to 12 terminal ammonium salts, have been designed to target the microorganisms cytoplasmic cell membrane and display high singlet oxygen quantum yields. In addition, PS3a and PS4a were conceived to exhibit multi-target localization by endowing them with amphiphilic character, using two different structural approaches.

Ethylene glycol is an essential commodity chemical with high demand, which is conventionally produced via thermocatalytic oxidation of ethylene with huge fossil fuel consumption and CO emission. The one-step electrochemical approach offers a sustainable route but suffers from reliance on noble metal catalysts, low activity, and mediocre selectivity. Herein, we report a one-step electrochemical oxidation of ethylene to ethylene glycol over an earth-abundant metal-based molecular catalyst, a cobalt phthalocyanine supported on a carbon nanotube (CoPc/CNT).

The synthesis of two novel phthalonitrile derivatives (3-4) bearing ethynylcyclohex-1-ene and ethynylcyclohexane groups and two peripherally octa substituted zinc (II) phthalocyanines (5-6) were prepared. The synthesis of phthalonitrile derivatives was performed with Sonagashira coupling reaction by using palladium-catalyzed. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by using FT-IR, NMR, mass, and UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy techniques.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising treatment for certain cancers that proceeds sensitization of ground state O to generate reactive O. Classic macrocyclic tetrapyrrole ligand scaffolds, such as porphyrins and phthalocyanines, have been studied in detail for their O photosensitization capabilities. Despite their compelling photophysics, these systems have been limited in PDT applications because of adverse biological side effects.
