A novel synthetic route to fused propenochlorin and benzochlorin photodynamic therapy probes

Abstract

Reaction of meso-(2-formylvinyl)octaethylporphyrin with (CH3)3SiCN–Cu(OTf)2 produced unexpected 103-trimethylsiloxyl and 103-hydroxyl fused propenochlorins which, in H2SO4, underwent subsequent migration of the 8-ethyl group to the 103-position of the exocyclic benzene ring to form a novel benzochlorin.
