A water-soluble nido-carboranyl-tetrabenzoporphyrin has been synthesized in 43% overall yield, by condensation of butanopyrrole with a carboranylbenzaldehyde, followed by metal insertion, oxidation, demetallation and deboronation reactions. This compound accumulated within human glioblastoma T98G cells to a significant higher extent than a structurally related nido-carboranylporphyrin, and localized preferentially in the cell lysosomes. Animal toxicity studies using male and female BALB/c mice revealed that both compounds are non-toxic even at a dose of 160 mg/kg, administered intraperitoneally as a single injection at a concentration of 4 mg/mL. It is concluded that the tetra(carboranylphenyl)-tetrabenzoporphyrin is a promising new sensitizer for the treatment of malignant tumors.
The total synthesis, cellular uptake, intracellular localization and animal toxicity of a tetra(nido-carboranylphenyl)-tetrabenzoporphyrinporphyrin are described and compared with a known tetra(nido-carboranyl)porphyrin.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
