Abstract

Electrocrystallized partially oxidized cobalt(III) phthalocyanine with varying linear axial ligands [CollI(Pc)L.]0.5 were synthesized. The resulting solid state modifications produced highly conducting molecular conductors with varying electrical conductivities. Electron transport in the [CollI(Pc)L2] system occurred through the intermolecular -n orbital overlaps between adjacent Co(Pc) units. Structure of axial ligands influenced the solid-state architecture of the system thereby affected the overlap integral, and consequently varied the electronic transport band widths. Consistent crystal systems were observed throughout the modifications.
