Synthesis, characterization and gas sensing properties of novel homo and hetero dinuclear ball-type phthalocyanines

Abstract

<p>A ball-type homodinuclear Co(<sc>ii</sc>)–Co(<sc>ii</sc>) phthalocyanine (<bold>2</bold>) and ball-type heterodinuclear Co(<sc>ii</sc>)–Fe(<sc>ii</sc>) phthalocyanine (<bold>3</bold>) were synthesized and their gas sensing properties were investigated.</p>
