Abstract

An efficient preparation of nanosized charge-transfer (CT) salts of metal phthalocyanine iodides has been achieved by direct reaction of metal phthalocyanine–silica hybrid nanoparticles with iodine. The direct reaction was enabled by the enhanced reactivity of the nanoparticles, which possess enlarged surface areas. TEM observation revealed that the [MPc]I salts thus formed separate from the shell layers of the nanoparticles during the reaction to form rod-shaped nanostructures of hundreds of nanometres in length and about 30 nm in diameter.
