Abstract

Newly developed tetra- and octasubstituted methimazole-phthalocyanine conjugates as potential photosensitizers have been obtained. Synthesized intermediates and final products were characterized by the MALD-TOF technique and various NMR techniques, including 2D methods. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction was used to determine the crystal structures of dinitriles. The studied phthalocyanines revealed two typical absorption bands—the Soret band and the Q band. The most intense fluorescence was observed for octasubstituted magnesium(II) phthalocyanine in DMF (ΦFL = 0.022). The best singlet oxygen generators were octasubstituted magnesium(II) and zinc(II) phthalocyanines (Φ∆ 0.56 and 0.81, respectively). The studied compounds presented quantum yields of photodegradation at the level between 10−5 and 10−6. Due to their low solubility in a water environment, the liposomal formulations were prepared. Within the studied group, octasubstituted zinc(II) phthalocyanine at the concentration of 100 µM activated with red light showed the highest antibacterial activity against S. aureus equal to a 5.68 log reduction of bacterial growth.
