- Abstract
Refluxing a mixture of phthalonitrile C6R1R 2R3R4(CN)2 1 (R1-R 4 = H), or its substituted derivatives 2 (R1, R 3, R4 = H, R2 = Me), or 3 (R1, R4 = H, R2, R3 = Cl) (lequiv.) and N,N-diethylhy-droxylamine, Et2NOH, (4 equivs.) in methanol for 4 h results (Route A) in precipitation of the symmetrical (6 and 8) and an isomeric mixture of unsymmetrical (7) phthalocyanines, isolated in good (55-65 % ) yields. The reaction of phthalonitriles 1, 2, or 4 (R1, R 3, R4 = H, R2 = NO2) (4 equivs.) with Et2NOH (8 equivs.) in the presence of a metal salt MCl 2 (M = Zn, Cd, Co, Ni) (1 equiv.) in n-BuOH or without solvent results in the formation of metallated phthalocyanine species (9-17). Upon refluxing in freshlydistilled dry chloroform, phthalonitrile 1 or its substituted analogues 2, 3 or 5 (R1-R4 = F) (1 equiv.) react with N,N-diethylhydroxylamine (2 equivs.) affording 3-iminoisoindolin-1- ones 18-21 (Route B) isolated in good yields (55-80%). All the prepared compounds were characterized with C, H, and N elemental analyses, ESI-MS, IR, and compounds 18-21 also by ID (1H, 13C(1H]), and 2D (1H,15N-HMBC and 1H,13CHMQC, 1H,13C-HMBC) NMR spectroscopy.
