METHOD FOR PRODUCING CHLORINS AND BACTERIOCHLORINS CONTAINING POLYETHER

摘要

This invention concerns a method for production of chlorins and/or bacteriochlorins containing polyether, which consists of the following steps: (a) bonding a polyether to a porphyrin and (b) reacting the polyether-containing porphryin with a reducing agent. Furthermore, the invention concerns the polyether-containing chlorins and bacteriochlorins produced by the process and their use for photodynamic tumour therapy.
