✦ Synopsis
The microwave heating synthesis of (phthalocyaninato)bis(chloro)silicon(IV) prepared from diiminoisoindolene and silicon tetrachloride in quinoline has been shown to be rapid (5 min reaction time compared to 30 min with thermal heating) and results in a high yield (91% compared to 71% using thermal heating). A modified microwave ashing furnace was used to heat the reaction mixture. The high yield has led to a reduction in the purification time to 1 h (compared to 4 h or more using conventional heating).
