Synthesis and evaluation of a tetra[6,7]quinoxalinoporphyrazine-based near infrared photosensitizer†
Abstract
Here we report a near infrared, water-soluble, functional and dendrimeric photosensitizer (PS) based on quinoxalinoporphyrazine structure. The photophysical properties and in vitro photodynamic therapy results suggest that this quinoxalinoporphyrazine-based dendrimer may serve as an efficient near infrared (NIR) PS platform.
