Journal Article
Zorlu, Y., Ermeydan, M. A., Dumoulin, F., Ahsen, V., Savoie, H., & Boyle, R. W. (2009). Glycerol and galactose substituted zinc phthalocyanines. Synthesis and photodynamic activity. Photochemical & photobiological sciences : an international journal, 8(3), 312-318. https://doi.org/10.1039/b817348f

Three novel water soluble, non-ionic, zinc phthalocyanines (Pcs) have been synthesized and their spectroscopic and photodynamic properties investigated in aqueous media. One of the three compounds was shown to be significantly less aggregated, when c... Read More about Glycerol and galactose substituted zinc phthalocyanines. Synthesis and photodynamic activity.

Reductive Amination-A convenient method for generating diverse, mono-functionalised 5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl porphyrins (2009)
Journal Article
Welch, C., Archibald, S. J., & Boyle, R. (2009). Reductive Amination-A convenient method for generating diverse, mono-functionalised 5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl porphyrins. SYNTHESIS, 2009(4), 551-556. https://doi.org/10.1055/s-0028-1083335

Formylation followed by reductive amination of 5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl porphyrin (TPP) is shown to be a versatile synthetic procedure for monosubstitution of the porphyrin core re-giospecifically at one β-position. A diverse range of substituents can... Read More about Reductive Amination-A convenient method for generating diverse, mono-functionalised 5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl porphyrins.
