Abstract: In this work, tetrafluorinated titanyl phthalocyanines with F-substituents in both peripheral (TiOPcF4-p) and non-peripheral (TiOPcF4-np) positions were synthesized and characterized by the methods of elemental analysis, IR and electronic absorption spectroscopies. The influence of the position of F-substituents on the structure of TiOPcF4-p and TiOPcF4-np single crystals and thin films grown by vacuum sublimation was studied. TiOPcF4-p crystallizes in the I4/m space group and its molecules form uniform stacks along the tetragonal axis. Introduction of F-substituents to non-peripheral positions leads to the change of the crystal structure: TiOPcF4-np crystallizes in the P-1 space group and its molecules are packed into 2D layers. Both phthalocyanines form oriented polycrystalline films when deposited by thermal sublimation in vacuum, but their phase composition is different from that of single crystals. The effect of post-deposition annealing of TiOPcF4-p and TiOPcF4-np films on their phase composition, morphology, optical absorption and Raman spectra, as well as conductivity was revealed. It was shown that a phase transition, which led to the appearance of an additional band in the near-IR region in the optical absorption spectrum, was observed in TiOPcF4-p films when heated, whereas no phase transition was observed in TiOPcF4-np films.
