Abstract
Two tetrathiafulvalene (TTF)-derived metallophthalocyanine complexes were synthesized. The structures of the target compounds and their intermediates have been characterized by NMR, MS, EA, UV–VIS and mp. The results of cyclic voltammetry indicated that the presence of zinc or magnesium phthalocyanine slightly affected the first oxidation of 4,5-ethylenedithiotetrathiafulvalene (EDT-TTF) unit. The EDT-TTF unit on the peripheral sites of the zinc phthalocyanine core could be more easily oxidized than the one on the same sites of the magnesium phthalocyanine core.
