Abstract
The present work relates to the synthesis and spectral properties of erbium and sandwich type metal complexes containing tetraanthraquinoporphyrazine as well as phthalocyanine fragments. By reacting tetraanthrachinoporphirazine erbium (lutetium) acetate with excess phthalonitrile, 4-chloro, 4-bromophthalonitrile and unsubstituted phthalonitrile, sandwich-type complexes of an unsymmetrical structure were obtained. The compounds were extracted from the reaction mixture with a suitable organic solvent (DMF or toluene) and purified by prolonged extraction of impurities with acetone in a Soxlet apparatus. Final purification was carried out by column chromatography. The obtained complexes are green solids having solubility in DMSO, DMF, and concentrated sulfuric acid. The composition and structure of complexes were confirmed by elemental analysis, IR and electron spectroscopy. Influence of chemical structure of new "sandwich" compounds on their spectral properties and possible applications has been investigated. In particular, when analyzing the electron absorption spectra, it was found that the metal, the nature of the substituents in the tetraanthraquinone moiety and the replacement of hydrogen atoms with halogen atoms in the phthalocyanine moiety slightly affect the nature and position of the absorption maxima. Studies have been carried out on the coloristic properties of synthesized organosoluble metal complexes erbium and lutetium. The compounds have been found to exhibit the properties of pigments and dyes for polymeric materials such as polystyrene and polyethylene. The temperature parameters of thermal oxidative degradation were determined and it was found that the obtained "sandwich" type phthalocyanines have high resistance to thermal oxidative degradation.
