The synthesis and characterization of three new indium phthalocyanines bearing eight N-alkyl- or N-arylsulfonamide groups is described. The new compounds are 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octakis[4-(4-methoxyphenylaminosulfonyl] phenoxy]phthalocyaninato}indium(III) chloride (7), 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octakis[4-diethylaminosulfonyl)phenoxy]phthalocyaninato}indium(III) chloride (8) and 2,3,9,10,16,17, 23,24-octakis[4-didodecylaminosulfonyl)phenoxy]phthalocyaninato}indium(III) chloride (9), and were obtained in 23-49% yields. The precursors of phthalocyanines 7-9 are sulfonamide-substituted phthalo-nitriles that can be prepared by reacting 4,5-bis(4-chlorosulfonylphenoxy)phthalonitrile (3) with amines. The nonlinear transmission (NLT) of complexes 7-9 was determined at 532 nm using ns pulses. All three phthalocyanines behave as reverse saturable absorbers with increasing efficiency of optical limiting in the order 7<8<9. A comparative analysis of the NLT results is attempted in terms of the structural differences in 7-9. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
