Phthalocyanine Dyes, Porphyrin Dyes

Phthalocyanine Dyes, Porphyrin Dyes — a collection of conjugated macrocyclic compounds based on phthalocyanine and porphyrin cores, including metal complexes such as zinc, copper, and iron, known for strong light absorption in the visible to near-infrared region. This group is an important base material in the development of photonic and functional optical materials.

Phthalocyanine Dyes, Porphyrin Dyes are used by photonic materials researchers in the development of dye-sensitized solar cells, optical sensors, and photocatalytic materials, utilizing the light absorption and electron transfer properties of their macrocyclic structures. Compounds such as zinc phthalocyanine and metal tetraphenylporphyrin are commonly used as model chromophores, while substituted derivatives such as YD2 were developed specifically for dye-sensitized solar cell applications.

Example products in this collection: TCI I0783 132-16-1 Iron(II) Phthalocyanine (purified by sublimation), TCI B6296 36530-06-0 Boron Subphthalocyanine Chloride (purified by sublimation), TCI Z0037 14320-04-8 Zinc Phthalocyanine (purified by sublimation), TCI C1630 95051-10-8 5-(4-Carboxyphenyl)-10,15,20-triphenylporphyrin, TCI Z0036 14074-80-7 Zinc(II) Tetraphenylporphyrin, TCI C2987 14172-91-9 Copper(II) Tetraphenylporphyrin, TCI Y0011 1201915-91-4 YD2, TCI C3051 155773-67-4 Copper(II) 5,9,14,18,23,27,32,36-Octabutoxy-2,3-naphthalocyanine.

Pay attention to purity levels, especially for products purified by sublimation, because residual impurities can affect the optical and electrochemical performance of materials in thin-film applications. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
