Tetrakis(trimethysilyl)phthalocyaninatoruthenium(II) (5) has been synthesized via the biaxially coordinated (( CH 3)3 Si )4 PcRu (3- Clpy )2 (2) complex by thermal decomposition of the axial ligands of 2. (( CH 3)3 Si )4 PcRu (5) was characterized by NMR, IR and UV-vis spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The trisubstituted (( CH 3)3 Si )3 PcRu (3- Clpy )2 (3) and disubstituted (( CH 3)3 Si )2 PcRu (3- Clpy )2 (4) complexes, formed as side products during the thermolysis of 2, could be isolated and characterized.
