Novel phthalocyanines (M = Ni, Zn, Co) bearing eight 2'- aminophenoxy and 2'-amino phenylsulfanyl substituents on peripheral positions have been prepared starting from 4,5-bis(2'-aminophenoxy)-1, 2-dicyanobenzene or 4,5-bis(2'-aminophenyl sulfanyl)-1,2-dicyanobenzene and the corresponding anhydrous metal salts [NiCl2, Zn(O2CMe)(2), CoCI2]. Complexation of octakis(2'-amino phenylsulfanyl)-substituted metallo phthalocyanines (2b, 3b and 4b) with Pd-II to form the pentanuclear product was accomplished from their mixtures.
