Lutetium phthalocyanine (LuPc
2) is a coordination compound derived from lutetium and two phthalocyanines. It was the first known example of a molecule that is an intrinsic semiconductor.^[1]^[2] It exhibits electrochromism, changing color when subject to a voltage.

Structure

LuPc
2 is a double-decker sandwich compound consisting of a Lu³⁺ ion coordinated to two the conjugate base of two phthalocyanines. The rings are arranged in a staggered conformation. The extremities of the two ligands are slightly distorted outwards.^[3] The complex features a non-innocent ligand, in the sense that the macrocycles carry an extra electron.^[4] It is a free radical^[1] with the unpaired electron sitting in a half-filled molecular orbital between the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied orbitals, allowing its electronic properties to be finely tuned.^[3]

Properties

LuPc
2, along with many substituted derivatives like the alkoxy-methyl derivative Lu[(C
8H
17OCH
2)
8Pc]
2, can be deposited as a thin film with intrinsic semiconductor properties;^[4] said properties arise due to its radical nature^[1] and its low reduction potential compared to other metal phthalocyanines.^[2] This initially green film exhibits electrochromism; the oxidized form LuPc+2 is red, whereas the reduced form LuPc−2 is blue and the next two reduced forms are dark blue and violet, respectively.^[4] The green/red oxidation cycle can be repeated over 10,000 times in aqueous solution with dissolved alkali metal halides, before it is degraded by hydroxide ions; the green/blue redox degrades faster in water.^[4]

Electrical properties

LuPc
2 and other lanthanide phthalocyanines are of interest in the development of organic thin-film field-effect transistors.^[3]^[5]

LuPc
2 derivatives can be selected to change color in the presence of certain molecules, such as in gas detectors;^[2] for example, the thioether derivative Lu[(C
6H
13S)
8Pc]
2 changes from green to brownish-purple in the presence of NADH.^[6]
