3-oxobutanoate, (E)-1-ethoxy-3-oxo-3-phenylprop-
1-en-1-olate, decanoic acid were purchased from
Aldrich and used as received. Toluene, methanol,
1-butanole, 1-pentanol, 1-heptanol, 1-nonanol,
aqueous ammonia solution, and all other organic sol-
vents were of reagent grade and were used without fur-
ther purification. Zirconium and hafnium dichlori-
dophthalocyaninates were prepared by the reaction of
MCl4 with o-phthalodinitrile according to the pub-
lished procedures [18].
PcHf(OH)2. PcHfCl2 (2.26 g, 0.003 mol) was sus-
pended under stirring and heating with 10 ml of a 25%
aqueous ammonia solution. The mixture was kept at
95°C for 6 hours, then 6 mL of ammonia solution was
added and kept for 6 hours under the same conditions,
then cooled and filtered. The precipitate was washed
on the filter 3 times with 10 mL of water, then 3 times
with the same amount of methanol and 2 times with
5 mL of methylene chloride. The product was dried at
room temperature for 24 hours. Yield, 1.63 g (76%).
The general method for synthesis of PcML2 (M =
Zr, Hf; L = β-diketone, carboxilate). PcM(OH)2
(0.4 mmol) was suspended in 10 mL of toluene, then
1.0 mmol of ligand was added and boiled for 2–
5 hours. Next, the reaction mixture was filtered hot
(T = 100–110°C), the solid residue was washed with
hot toluene. The filtrate was cooled, the crystals
formed overnight, filtered, washed with hexane and
dried in vacuo at 100°C. The yields of the final prod-
ucts are shown in Table 2.

1H NMR spectra were recorded on a Varian VXR
(400 or 300 MHz) spectrometer, TMS was used as
internal standard, CDCl3 was used as solvent.
The general method for synthesis of PcM(OH)2 (M =
Zr, Hf) in alcohol media. Zirconium or hafnium tetra-
chloride (0.012 mol) was mixed with the correspond-
ing alcohol (20 mL) and heated to 100°C (HCl release
was observed). Then phthalodinitrile (6.10 g, 0.048 mol)
was added, after its dissolving urea (1.40 g, 0.023 mol)
was added. The reaction mixture was heated to the
boiling of the alcohol and kept for 8–10 hours. After
cooling, the solution was filtered, the resulting precip-
itate was first washed with toluene and a small amount
of methanol, and then within 4 hours was extracted
with methanol in a Soxhlet apparatus from excess
phthalodinitrile and products of metal tetrachloride
hydrolysis. The resulting product was air-dried. The
yields of the final products are shown in Table 1.
