Abstract

Two novel steric polymeric phthalocyanines, with copper (CuPPc) and aluminum hybrid zinc (Al/ZnPPc) as the central atoms, were synthesized by the cyclic condensation of tetrahedral tetra-phthalonitriles. The IR and UV-VIS spectra of the synthesized polymers indicated a moderate degree of polymerization, somewhere between the monomeric phthalocyanine and planar covalent polymer. Good thermal stability and a high metallic content of CuPPc and Al/ZnPPc were verified by TGA and ICA-AAS methods. The metallic atoms were distributed uniformly and exhibited different binding features with -CN, -O, -N in the polymer, as indicated by EDS and XPS analysis. High electrical conductivity was observed before and after iodine doping compared to the normal polymeric phthalocyanine.
