Redox potentials of metal phthalocyanines in non-aqueous media

Abstract: A study of the redox potentials of a range of metal phthalocyanines in non-aqueous media compared with analogous data for some porphyrin complexes provides evidence for extensive back donation in metallophthalocyanines. The potentials for some couples are exceedingly sensitive to axial ligation. It is suggested that this sensitivity may be used to 'tune' a redox couple for a specific purpose such as designing a reversible oxygen breathing system.

“…Therefore, in contrast to Zn II OHETPc, it was not possible to observe the oxidation of H 2 OHETPc, which probably occurs at a more positive potential than the solvent-limited potential in the experimental conditions of our work. The electrochemistry of cobalt(II) phthalocyanines is split into two sections, that referring to donor solvents and that referring to non-donor solvents [26][27][28][29]. Whether the metal or the ring is oxidized first depending on the nature of the solvent is the principle difference for the redox couples of cobalt(II) phthalocyanines.…”

“…These highly stable systems formed in nature gain their universality from a central metal site coupled to several connected pyrrole rings [52]. Metalloporphyrins, with Fe in different oxidation states, can easily undergo redox reactions in living systems and activate many biochemical reactions [53,54]. They could be used as matrices for hydrogen storage [55] and optical devices [56,57].…”
