Abstract

The synthesis of two tetrasubstituted zinc(II)phthalocyanines carrying four carbon-carbon linked o-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.
