Phthalocyanines which are heterocyclic compounds, have taken interest in applying as functional materials
such as chemical sensors, liquid crystals, photovoltaic cells, optical data storage, organic semiconductors,
catalysts, organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), anticancer agents, electrochemistry, photodynamic
therapy, due to their unique structural properties. Phthalocyanine compounds become promising candidates
as the metal centers as well as nitrogen active sites are responsible for redox reactions that give rise to the
pseudo capacitive behavior.1 Applications exist where phthalocyanines containing different metal central
atoms and substituted with various groups are used as sensors.2
In this work, we synthesized and characterized non-peripherally 2-(4-methoxyphenoxy)ethoxy groups
substituted Co(II)phthalocyanine as well as investigation of its cation sensing properties for 17 different
cations, including Ag+, Al3+, Ba2+, Ca2+, Cd2+, Cu2+, Cr3+, Co2+, Fe3+, K+, Mn2+, Mg2+, Na+, Ni2+, Pb2+, Sr2+, and Zn2+.
According to the obtained results, the complex exhibited selectivity towards Fe3+ cation. Based on this data,
the aim is to develop a new method for iron determination.
