A novel zinc(II) phthalocyanine substituted with an oxaliplatin derivative via a triethylene glycol linker has been synthesized. The two components work in a cooperative manner in the antitumor action. The conjugate shows a cytotoxic effect in the dark due to the cytostatic oxaliplatin moiety and an enhanced cytotoxicity upon illumination due to the photosensitizing phthalocyanine unit against the
