Example 7
Starting From a Batch of Compound (II) With the Following Isomers Distribution:
A=6.7%, B=6.5%, C+D=86.8%;
Performing the Chromatography Purification (Step ii)) as Described:
1.8 g of [1,8(11),15(18),22(25)-tetrakis-(3-N,N-dimethylaminophenoxy)] zinc phthalocyaninate (II) are dissolved in 12 ml of an eluent mixture X/Y 3/1 in which X=DCM/THF/MeOH 94/5/1 e Y=n-hexane. The sample is loaded on a chromatographic pre-packed column (Biotage SNAP KP-Sil Cartridge, silica gel 100 g, mesh 40-63 μm) pre-conditioned with X/Y 3/1. The elution (Flow: 40 ml/min) is performed with X/Y 3/1 until ail isomer B is eluted, then ratio of the mixture X/Y is carried to 4/1 and so kept for the elution of isomers C, D and A. The selected fractions are collected and dried to give 1.4 g of [1,8(11),15(18),22(25)-tetrakis-(3-N,N-dimethylaminophenoxy)] zinc phthalocyaninate “with low isomer B content” (III) with the following isomers distribution are obtained: A=7.4%, B=0.4%, C+D=92.2%;
Performing Steps iii) and iv) on This Batch of Compound (III):
a batch of compound (I) with the following isomers distribution is obtained: A=7.6%, B=0.5%, C=62.6%, D=29.3%.
