Novel Co(II) phthalocyanines of extended periphery and their water-soluble derivatives. Synthesis, spectral properties and catalytic activity

Novel complexes of cobalt and copper with substituted phthalocyanines were synthesized and characterized. Their water-soluble derivatives were obtained by sulfonation under mild conditions and structurally proved. Aggregation equilibrium in water mediums was shown and influence of geometrical and electron parameters of macroheterocycle peripheral substituents on these processes was established. Catalytic activity upon liquid-phase oxidation of N,N-diethylcarbamodithiolate to thiuram E was studied. Kinetic parameters of substrate oxidation in presence of cobalt phthalocyanines were considered.
