Symmetrically Substituted Zn and Al Phthalocyanines and Polymers for Photodynamic Therapy Application

N4 macrocyclic complexes of Al and Zn phthalocyanines with symmetrical imine and imidazole moiety at the periphery were synthesized. The synthesized ligands, complexes, and polymers were purified and characterized to study the structure of the molecule. These synthesized complexes were used for phot...
