Comparing this result to those obtained by Carrado et al. [19] on copper phtalocyanine tetrasulfonate, it is important to note that the same result was obtained for stochiometric amount of CuPcTs. Nevertheless for a CuPcTs concentration corresponding to twice that necessary to balance the charge created by aluminum in the hydrotalcite framework, Carrado et al. [19] obtained a perpendicular intercalated copper phtalocyanine complex with a doo3 reflection at 23 A. However, this component presented an unexpectedly low surface area of about 0.2 m /g. 

Organic solar cell (OSC) efficiencies of 5% were recently achieved on indium tin oxide (ITO)/CuPc/CuPc C6o/C6o/bathocuproine (BCP)/A1 photovoltaic (PV) devices employing donor (D) copper-phtalocyanine (CuPc) and acceptor (A) fullerene C6o materials [1]. However, little is known about how the device performance and electrical properties are influenced by the composition and preparation conditions of the CuPciC blend layer.

Chemical interaction between surface-oxidized multiwall carbon nanotube (o-MWCNTs) and tetrasulfonate copper phtalocyanine (TS-CuPc) molecular semiconductor has been investigated [117] (see Fig. 4.31a for a representation of the assembly). The examined system shows evidence of spontaneous tendency to form nanostructures upon rapid drying. By analysis of the Nls, S2p and Cu2p core levels... 

Braun and Tcherniac obtained Pc for the first time in 1907 as a byproduct of the preparation of o-cyanobenzamide from phthalimide and acetic anhydride [40,51], which did not draw the attention of scientific peers at that time. Later, a similar synthesis was reported by de Diesbach and von der Weid, in 1927, who prepared copper-phtalocyanine (CuPc) by reacting o-dibromobenzene with copper cyanide in pyridine [52]. The deep-blue CuPc exhibited exceptional stability to sulfuric acid, alkahes, and heat. An extensive study of the Pcs was conducted by Linstead during the 1930s and elucidated their structure. He also developed and improved methods to synthesize several metal Pcs. 

Absorption spectra of standard solutions of Cyt c was obtained at different concentration. Maximum of absolution was observed at wavelength 410 nm. It is known haemoglobin and other haems have absolution maximum at the same wavelength. For elaboration of selective method of Cyt c determination in semm of mice its reaction with phtalocyanine of copper was investigated. Absorption maximum of Cyt c with Cu phtalocyanine in H SO was observed at wavelength 710 nm. Dependence on optical density at 710 nm against concentration of Cyt c have linear character in range 0.162-10-"-6.49-10 mol/L.
