Abstract

Crystals of monoaxially coordinated T-shaped and H-shaped supramolecular zinc(II) phthalocyaninato complexes with pyrazine are obtained. In both types of molecules the central Zn atom of ZnPc complexes with pyrazine exhibits 4 + 1 coordination. The Zn atom is equatorially coordinated by four isoindole N atoms of Pc macrocycle and axially by N atom of pyrazine molecule. The interaction of the central Zn atom of ZnPc with the axial N atom of pyrazine leads to a deviation of Zn from the centre of cavity by 0.371(2) Å in the T-shaped complex and by 0.296(2) Å in the H-shaped complex. Thermogravimetric analysis of the crystals exhibits three slopes down, corresponding to the loss in succession of solvated pyrazine molecules, than the loss of ligated pyrazine molecules from the T-shaped complex and the finally the loss of the bridged pyrazine molecule from the H-shaped complex. Finally the thermal processing leads to the β-ZnPc as residue. The UV–Vis spectrum taken in solution shows the batochromic shift in the polar solvent like α-chloronaphthalene in relation to the spectrum in non-polar solvent like benzene.
