TL;DR: In this paper, the electrochemical properties of phthalocyanine ring π electron system were investigated by cyclic voltammetry and applied potential chronocoulometry techniques.
Abstract: In this study, electrochemical behaviors of Co(II) and Pd(II) phthalocyanines carrying tetrakisdiethoxymalonyl and Pd(II) phthalocyanine carrying tetrakiscarboxymethyl substituents at the peripheral positions are investigated by cyclic voltammetry and applied potential chronocoulometry techniques. Cyclic voltammetric studies show that, while Pd(II) phthalocyanines carrying diethoxymalonyl and carboxymethyl substituents give up to three common phthalocyanine ring reductions, Co(II) phthalocyanine carrying diethoxymalonyl substituents gives a metal-centered oxidation and a metal-centered reduction and three ligand-centered reduction and a ligand-centered oxidation processes. First reduction processes of both the PdPc complexes have shoulders. This different voltammetric behaviors of Pd(II) phthalocyanines carrying carboxymethyl and diethoxymalonyl substituents results from interaction of this distinctive substituents with the phthalocyanine ring π electron system and interaction with the different solvent systems. Observation of the splitting of the first reduction process of Pd(II) phthalocyanines carrying diethoxymalonyl and carboxymethyl substituents suggests the aggregation of the complex. Very small diffusion coefficient of the complexes with respect to Co(II) phthalocyanine also confirms the existence of the aggregation of the complex during the electrochemical studies. Effects of the substituents and the solvent media are clearly observed from the differences of the voltammograms of Pd(II) phthalocyanines carrying diethoxymalonyl and carboxymethyl substituents in DMSO and THF solvent media, respectively.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the preparation, physical characterization and electrochemistry of peripherally functionalized substituted ionophore double-decker lanthanide phthalocyanines, which are functionalized with hydroxyhexylsulfanyl moieties for potential use as metal ion binding and surface anchors.
Abstract: In this study we report the preparation, physical characterization and electrochemistry of peripherally functionalized substituted ionophore double-decker lanthanide phthalocyanines, lanthanide bis-[(4,4″,4″,4‴)-tetrakis-(6-hydroxyhexylthio)phthalocyaninates], {M[Pc(S-C6H13OH)4]2} (M = PrIII, YbIII, and LuIII). All benzenes on the double-decker phthalocyanines are functionalized with hydroxyhexylsulfanyl moieties for potential use as metal ion binding and surface anchors. The double-decker phthalocyanines synthesized from the anhydrous metal salts {Ln(acac)3} and the corresponding 4-(6-hydroxyhexylthio)-1,2-dicyanobenzene exhibit ion-specific optical changes in the presence of Ag+ and Pd2+. Thio donors of the complexes coordinate to Ag+ and Pd2+ to give 4:1 metal-phthalocyanine complexes. Newly synthesized lanthanide double-decker phthalocyanines are soluble in methanol (MeOH), ethanol (EtOH), tetrahydrofuran (THF), dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), chloronapthalene, quinoline and less soluble in i-PrOH and acetonitrile. Electrochemical studies reveal that all lanthanide-base complexes undergo ligand-based redox processes. The smaller HOMO-LUMO gaps of the complexes indicate the existence of strong π-orbital interactions between the rings of the sandwich. The newly synthesized compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR, 1H and 13C NMR, MS (ESI and Maldi-TOF), UV-vis and EPR spectral data.

Reactive polyalcohol moieties appended at the periphery of the oxime containing two different heteroatoms (S-, O-), serve as a weak exocyclic binding sites for PdII and AgI metal ions and also provide solubility for the vic-dioxime complexes in low molecular-weight alcohols.
