Abstract :
Studies on the synthesis, structural characterization and biological evaluation of novel chalcone-porphyrin derivatives are described. The photodynamic effect, intracellular localization and cellular uptake of the new conjugates were evaluated in vitro in COS-7 cells. All derivatives exhibited high stability and yielded good fluorescence under light irradiation. None of the chalcone-porphyrins proved to be cytotoxic and/or phototoxic for COS-7 cells.
