Synthesis of tetrasubstituted Zn(II)-phthalocyanines carrying four carboranyl-units as potential BNCT and PDT agents
摘要:
The synthesis of two tetrasubstituted zinc(II)phthalocyanines carrying four carbon-carbon linked nu-carboranyl-units (40 boron atoms, 27.5% boron by weight) is presented. In an in vitro model test the new compounds showed a good photosensitizing efficiency, that encourages further studies for their evaluation as possible BNCT-PDT sensitizers. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

The present invention relates to meta l-phthalocyanines bearing at least a group containing boron isotopes 11B or 10B, covalently bound to the peripheral positions of metal-phthalocyanine nucleus; moreover it refers to the processes for their preparation, the pharmaceutical compositions comprising them and their use for the treatment of neoplastic and dysplastic pathologies.
