title: The synthesis of new potential photosensitizers. 1. Mono-carboxylic acid derivatives of tetraphenylporphyrin.
abstract: A series of mono-alkylcarboxylic acid derivatives of tetraphenylporphyrin have been prepared. All the porphyrins were completely characterized by use of mass,1H NMR, UV-visible, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Experimental logPwere determined by use of reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography with use of logPRekker. These porphyrins are potential photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy.
