GENERAL DESCRIPTION & APPLICATIONS

Phthalocyanine a macrocyclic compound. It consists of four isoindole-class [(C6H4)C2N] units linked by four nitrogen atoms to form a conjugated chain, which take play in hosting various different metal ions in its centrer. This structure is Macrocyclic structure shows a striking feature as a colorant like porphyrins (biopigments) in nature. Phthalocyanine derivatives derived from the basic compound of (C6H4C2N)4N4 are used as light-fast blue or green pigments.  The hosted metals and substituted groups result in distinct colors; phthalocyanine (blue-green), copper phthalocyanine (blue), chlorinated copper phthalocyanine (green), and sulfonated copper phthalocyanine (green). Recently they are involved in the study of photosensitizer chemistry or metal complex chemistry such as transition-metal complex catalyst chemistry for uniform polymerization, luminescence chemistry and spectrophotometric analysis, organic synthesis and polymerization. Phthalocyanine pigments are used in enamels, linoleum, inks, plastics, and rubber goods.
