Abstract

Electronic and IR transmission spectroscopy and ESR have been used to investigate the products obtained in the oxidation of layes of nickel and cobalt phthalocyanines by halogen vapors. It has been established that cobalt phthalocyanine in chlorine or bromine vapor forms stable cation radicals in which one electron has been detached from the cobalt and the other from the phthalocyanine ligand; in iodine vapor, a partially oxidized product is formed, with a positive charge on the ligand. Nickel phthalocyanine in bromine vapor at high pressure of bromine, and also in chlorine or iodine vapor, nickel phthalocyanine forms partially oxidized products with various degrees of oxidation of the ligand. An interpretation is given for the spectra of the ionic species that have been investigated; the interpretation can be used in particular to determine the degree of the ionic species on the basis of their spectra.
