General description

Zinc (II) phthalocyanine (ZnPc) complexes show photosensitizing properties. Phthalocyanines show significant Π−Π interactions and easy formation of H aggregates.[1]

Application

Zinc phthalocyanine finds general applications in industry (catalysts, photoconductors etc) and biomedical (photodynamic therapy, PDT).[2] ZnPc may be used to photooxidise cyclohexane.[3] A study reports functionalization of polymer membrane with ZnPc.[4]
