Metal phthalocyanine derivatives exhibit highly redox properties. However, there are few reports on practical applications using their redox ability. The purpose of this study is the utilization of the redox properties of metal phthalocyanine derivatives. To achieve the purpose, we prepared redox resins which synthesized metal phthalocyanine tetrasulfonic acids were fixed onto ion-exchange resins. Fixation of metal phthalocyanine tetrasulfonic acids onto ion-exchange resin was found to be the Freundlich type. The redox ability of the resins were examined in the reaction between metal phthalocyanine tetrasulfonic acid fixed ion-exchange resin and hydrogen, peroxide. The ability we found to be different depending on the central metal in metal phthalocyanine tetrasulfonic acid.
