Abstract

Abstract Phthalocyanines (Pcs) are intensely coloured, robust macrocycles that possess admirable chemical, thermal and photo- stability as a result of its extensive π-network. The Pc family has established their fundamental and technological importance in numerous applications due to structural versatility and unique properties that result from the incorporation of a variety of inorganic and organic components into its framework. The diversity of Pc structures allows for the optimisation of certain properties to obtain functional, high-performance materials. The combination of aromaticity, relatively simple synthesis and structural flexibility makes Pcs a great asset for numerous scientific and industrial advancements. This review focuses on recent advances (2014–2020) of phthalocyanines in the specific technologies of chemical sensors, non-linear optics (NLO), and energy storage applications. Many MPc complexes reported to date favour select metals and ligand derivatives which leaves huge opportunities for further exploration.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
