Abstract: A novel, solvothermal method for directly growing crystals of the P-form of copper phthalocyanine that involved using quinoline as solvent and cooling the reaction mixture to room temperature is proposed. Needle-like, single crystals of CuPc up to 10 mm in length were prepare using 1,3-diiminoisoindoline and Cu(ACO)(2)-2H(2)O in the quinoline solvent. The influence of the temperatures, growth time and solvent volumes on crystal yield were determined. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
