Description

Cobalt(II) 1,2,3,4,8,9,10,11,15,16,17,18,22,23,24,25-Hexadecafluoro-29H,31H-Phthalocyanine is a highly specialized, fluorinated metallophthalocyanine complex with the CAS number 52629-20-6. This compound is valued for its unique electronic and photophysical properties derived from its perfluorinated structure and central cobalt ion. It is primarily sought by researchers and developers in advanced material science and electronics. Its distinct molecular architecture makes it a critical component for next-generation functional materials.

Application

• Organic Semiconductor Research: A key building block for developing n-type organic semiconductors and electron-transport materials in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs).
• Photovoltaic Materials: Used in the synthesis of non-fullerene acceptors and active layers for organic solar cells (OSCs) due to its strong electron-accepting character.
• Catalysis: Serves as a precursor or model compound for designing novel catalysts in oxidation and other organic transformation reactions.
• Chemical Sensors: Employed in the development of sensitive layers for gas and chemical detection devices, leveraging its colorimetric or conductivity changes.
• Dyes and Pigments: Acts as a precursor for creating high-performance, stable fluorinated pigments with specific spectral properties.
• Non-Linear Optics (NLO): Investigated for potential applications in NLO materials due to the extended π-conjugation system modified by fluorine atoms.
