Abstract:
|
Dilithium phthalocyanine undergoes exchange reactions with tetralkylammonium halides or imidazolium tetrafluoroborates. The tetraalkylammonium lithium phthalocyanines are soluble in dichloromethane and have melting points that range from 118o to 160o. Solubility and melting points are dependent on the size of pendent ammonium or imidazolium substituents. To extend our understanding of influence of cation structure on physical properties of cation- lithium-phthalocyanine complexes, a series of alkoxyalkylammonium halides were synthesized and used in metathesis reactions with dilithium phthalocyanine. Characterization data for the exchange products will be presented. |
