In the title compound, C(10)H(7)ClN(2)O, the O and both C atoms of the chloroethoxy group are disordered over two positions, the occupancy factor of the major disorder component refining to 0.54 (2).

4-(2-(benzo[d] [1,3] dioxol-5-ylmethoxy) phenoxy) phthalonitrile was first prepared as a starting material. Then, this new derivative reacted with Zn and Co salts to obtain phthalocyanine complexes. Phthalocyanine complexes were evaluated by fluorescence emission, extinction, absorption measurements. Aggregation studies show compliance the lambert-beer law in concentration range studied for per...

In the title compound, C(14)H(7)N(3)O(3), the dihedral angle between the two arene units is 62.57 (12)°.

In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(15)H(10)N(2)O, the dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 65.49 (9)°.

The title compound, C(22)H(16)N(2)O(4), was obtained unintentionally as the product of an attempted synthesis of a new phthalocyanine. The dihedral angles formed by the central benzene ring with the aromatic rings of the meth-oxy-phen-oxy groups are 85.39 (5) and 64.19 (5)°.

Chiral binaphthyl-linked subphthalocyanines (SubPcs) (1) have been prepared by the cyclotrimerization reaction of a phthalonitrile linked with (R)- and (S)-2,2'-binaphthyl in the presence of BCl3, and characterized by various spectroscopies including NMR, electronic absorption, CD, and MCD, as well as electrochemistry.
