title: Synthesis and characterization of a benzene-centered, phthalocyanine hexamer.
abstract: The first benzene-centered, phthalocyanine hexamer has been synthesized by a dicobaltoctacarbonyl-catalyzed trimerization reaction of an ethynyl-bridged bisphthalocyanine and characterized by different spectrometric and spectroscopic techniques.
