Abstract
Modifications of the conventional precipitation method for purifying α-metallophthalocyanines give a product essentially free of the usual occluded impurities, significantly decreasing the total metallic content of extracted radionuclides. Application of the improved method to the preparation of an α-CoPc target is described.
