  • Abstract
    Hypocrellins are under intensive investigation as photosensitizing agents for photodynamic therapy (PDT). A recent advance in the synthesis of hypocrellin congeners resulted in the production of an amino-substituted hypocrellin-B, and its “half chromophore.” Both compounds exhibit stronger red light absorption than previously reported hypocrellins, and, therefore, merit investigation as photosensitizers.
