Abstract
A compound comprising a boron subphthalocyanine moiety, a plurality of solubilizing substituents positioned on peripheral cyclic groups of the boron subphthalocyanine moiety and an axial substituent positioned on the boron atom of the boron subphthalocyanine moiety. The plurality of solubilizing substituents comprise an oxygen or sulfur containing functional group and a substituted or unsubstituted, linear, branched or cyclic, aliphatic or aromatic terminal hydrocarbyl group that is 8 or more carbon atoms in length, the hydrocarbyl group optionally containing one or more heteroatoms. The axial substituent is selected from the group consisting of halogen, alkyloxy, haloalkyloxy, ester, carbonyl substituted alkyl, carbonyl substituted haloalkyl, alkylaryloxy, haloalkylaryloxy, alkyl sulfonyl, haloalkyl sulfonyl, alkylaryl sulfonyl and haloalkylaryl sulfonyl. The compound is not one of the following compounds: a) Phenoxytrispentadecylphenoxyboronsubphthalocyanine, b) Chlorotrispentadecylphenoxyboronsubphthalocyanine, or c) 3-Pentadecylphenoxytrispentadecylphenoxyboronsubphthalocyanine. Processes for making the compound are also taught.
