Abstract: In this work, 4-(3-morpholin-4-ylpropoxy)phthalonitrile 2, 3-(3-morpholin-4-ylpropoxy)phthalonitrile 3, Co(II)Pc and Mn(III)Pcs containing (3-morpholin-4-ylpropoxy) groups at peripheral and nonperipheral positions were synthesized. Phthalonitrile derivatives (2 and 3), Co(II)Pc and Mn(III)Pcs (2a, 2b, 3a, 3b) were characterized by using FT-IR, NMR (only for 2 and 3), mass and UV-Vis (except 2 and 3) spectral data techniques. Also, electrochemistry of (3-morpholin-4-ylpropoxy) group substituted Co(II)Pc and Mn(III)Pcs were inspected by using cyclic voltammetry. Electrochemical studies show that (3-morpholin-4-ylpropoxy) group substituted Co(II)Pc and Mn(III)Pcs electropolymerized on the Pt working electrode.

Keywords: Synthesis, phthalocyanine, cobalt, manganese, voltammetry
