Phthalocyanines Properties and Applications Edited by C.C. Leznoff A.B.P. Lever This volume, which includes 13 critical reviews of the fundamental, synthetic, biological, and applied chemistry of the phthalocyanine derivatives, completes the Phthalocyanine series. Together, Volumes 1 through 4 cover a broad spectrum of the physical and chemical aspects of the phthalocyanines and related compounds. From the Reviews of the Series "We are very favorably impressed with this book, and will not hesitate to add it to our libraries as an extremely valuable source book." -Photochemistry and Photobiology ". a valuable resource on the current state of phthalocyanine science and technology." -Journal of the American Chemical Society ". strongly recommended for chemists. it provides highly readable descriptions in basic areas of research." -Physics in Canada ". stimulating for industrial, medical, and academic researchers." -Chemical Engineering World ". a must for those who are in the field of pure or applied phthalocyanine research or interested in entering the field." -Spectrochimica Acta

Up-to-date and written by leading experts, this book is unique in a rapidly expanding field. It provides in-depth discussions and descriptions of the materials, electronic properties and applications of phthalocyanines. Aspects of phthalocyanines covered include* synthesis* polymer aspects* electronic spectroscopy* excited state chemistry and physics* chemical sensors* biological aspects (e.g. photodynamic therapy of cancer) The numerous tables, chemical structures, and references are particularly handy source materials for both the novice and experienced researcher and industrial practitioner interested in phthalocyanines.

Continuing with the expert discussion and many of the topics introduced in the first volume, the editors and their selected contributors offer detailed coverage of phthalocyanine chemistry.

The unique properties of phthalocyanines have generated worldwide interest in their use in chemical sensors, fuel cells, molecular metals, molecular computers, pollution control, and information technology.Volume 3 of this series continues the detailed coverage of the fundamental and applied chemistry of the phthalocyanine derivatives. Eight distinguished experts discuss different aspects of the field. This book also contains a considerable collection of tables, chemical structures, and graphic representations, along with an extensive, up to date array of references.
