  • Title: Synthesis and characterization of a carboranyl-tetrabenzoporphyrin.
    Author: Ongayi O, Gottumukkala V, Fronczek FR, Vicente MG.
    Journal: Bioorg Med Chem Lett; 2005 Mar 15; 15(6):1665-8. PubMed ID: 15745818.
    Abstract:
    An expeditious synthetic route to a carboranyl-substituted tetrabenzoporphyrin is reported. The absorption and emission spectra of water-soluble tetrabenzoporphyrin 4 are distinct from those of a known carboranylporphyrin (5). Both tetrabenzoporphyrin 4 and porphyrin 5 were found to be non-toxic toward V79 hamster lung fibroblast cells at 300 microM, using an MTT assay. The X-ray structure of a Cu(II)-carboranyl-tetrabenzoporphyrin is presented and discussed.
