Carrying tricyclic groups new metal-free and metallophthalocyanines characterization and synthesis

SUMMARY Carrying Tricyclic Groups New Metal-free and Metallophthalocyanine Characterization and Synthesis In this study, new metal-free and metallophthalocyanine carrying four tetraazatrioxa macrotricyclic groups on peripheral positions have been synthesized. Metal-free phthalocyanine (3) was prepared by the reaction of (2) with dry 2-(N,N-dimethylamino) ethanol under reflux. Metallophtnalocyanine (4) was synthesized by the reaction of anhydrous NiCI2 and phthalonitrile derivate (2) in dry ethylenegrycol under reflux temperature. We also synthesized tetraazatrioxa tricyclic dibromo derivate (1) has been synthesized by the reaction tetraazaoxa macrobicyclic with l,2-bis(2-ryodoetoxy)-4,5- dibromobenzen. Tetraazatrioxa tricyclic dinitrile derivate (2) was obtained from the reaction of macrotricyclic dibromo derivate (1) and CuCN. The structures of new compounds were identified by using ^-NMR, I3C-NMR, IR, UV-Visible spectroscopic data.
