Abstract:One ring, two oxidations: The first doubly ring‐oxidized metal phthalocyanine complex has been synthesized by galvanostatic electrocrystallization. Copper phthalocyanine was oxidized in the presence of perrhenate anions to form the new molecular compounds [Cu(pc)(ReO4)] and [Cu(pc)(ReO4)2] (structure shown). Single‐crystal EPR results show that the oxidation of [Cu(pc)(ReO4)2] is entirely ring‐based.
