PROCESSES FOR THE PREPARATION OF TITANYLPHTHALOCYANINES

摘要

A process for the preparation of titanyl phthalocyanine Type X which comprises dissolving titanyl phthalocyanine Type I in a solution of trifluoroacetic acid and methylene chloride; adding the resultant solution to a solvent enabling precipitation of Type X titanyl phthalocyanine; separating the titanyl phthalocyanine Type X from the solution; followed by a first washing with an organic solvent and a second washing with water; and thereafter a solvent treatment with fluorobenzene.
