“…[8][9][10] To date, as eries of crystalline metal phthalocyanine [M(PcC 3À )]C À radicala nion salts were obtainedw ithM= H 2 ,C u II ,N i II ,S n II ,P b II , Sn IV Cl 2 ,T i IV O, V IV O, In III Cl, Mg II OH, and someo ther metals. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] Radical trianion PcC 3À macrocycles were also formed in formally neutral radicals [Al III (L) 2 (PcC 3À )]C,w here L = N-methylimidazole (MeIm) and THF, [17,18] [Ga III (MeIm) 2 (PcC 3À )]C , [18] and [Sn IV Ph(PcC 3À )]C [19] in which the negative charge of PcC 3À is compensated by the positive charge of the central metal atom. Further reduction of these metal phthalocyanines to their dianionic states wasr ealized at more negative reduction potentials (from À1.18 to À1.33 Vv s. saturated calomel electrode (SCE) in DMFf or Zn II Pc, Ni II Pc, and Cu II Pc).…”
