Synthesis and properties of functionally substituted phthalocyanines: from photocatalysis to photodynamic therapy

Abstract

Abstract. The review is devoted to the main methods for obtaining functionally substituted phthalocyanine complexes, as well as the initial precursors – phthalonitriles containing various hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups. A comparison of the optical and photochemical properties of phthalocyanines is presented, including the directions of generation of active oxygen metabolites. The areas of application of phthalocyanines are designated: photocatalysis, fluorescent diagnostics, antitumor and antibacterial photodynamic therapy.
Key words: phthalocyanines, medicinal chemistry, photodynamic therapy, reactive oxygen metabolites, spectroscopy, fluorophores
