SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION, AGGREGATION BEHAVIOR, ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY, AND ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF METALLOPHTHALOCYANINES CARRYING FOUR PHTHALONITRILES GROUP

Abstract

A novel phthalonitrile derivative and zinc (II), cobalt (II), and cupper (II) phthalocyanines complexes were synthesis and characterized. The novel compounds have been characterized by using various spectroscopic data FTIR, UV/vis, NMR, elemental analysis etc. The aggregation investigations carried out in different concentrations indicate that 4- (4-(1-(4-phenoxypheny1)-1-phenylethyl)phenoxy)phthalonitrile substituted phthalocyanine compounds do not have any aggregation behavior for the concentration range of 10(-4)-10(-5) M in tetrahydrofuran. The antioxidant properties of the phthalonitrile and its phthalocyanine compounds were evaluated in three series of in vitro tests: DPPH free radical scavenging, ferrous ion chelating activity and reducing power. Antimicrobial activities of compounds were investigated.
