Abstract

Photochemical and photophysical measurements were conducted on pentoxy and naphthaloxy appended zinc and magnesium phthalocyanines. We describe in this paper the synthesis as well as unexpected photodegradation behavior of naphthaloxy appended magnesium phthalocyanines. General trends are described for quantum yields of photodegradation, triplet lifetimes and triplet quantum yields as well as singlet oxygen quantum yields of these compounds.
