Photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) are promising therapeutic methods for cancer treatment. However, both PDT and PTT have their own limitations. Thus, it is highly desirable to synthesize a single photosensitizer, which exhibits both PDT and PTT therapeutic performances. We have designed and synthesized a new porphyrin-based polymer (ZP-PT) by crosslinking fluoroporphyrins (ZnPor) and HS-terminated pentaerythritol tetra(3-mercaptopropionate) (PETMP). After being transformed into nanoparticles (ZP-PT NPs), they showed excellent water dispersity with the average size of about 100 nm. ZP-PT NPs could generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and thermal energy under 635 nm laser irradiation The singlet oxygen yield and the photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) of ZP-PT NPs were calculated to be 0.46 and 27.07% resp., which were apparently higher than that of ZnPor NPs. In addition, ZP-PT NPs exhibited higher colloidal stability and photostability than that of ZnPor NPs. All these results suggested that ZP-PT NPs had great potential in photodynamic and photothermal synergistic treatment of cancer. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 2′,7′-Dichloro-3′,6′-dihydroxy-3H-spiro[isobenzofuran-1,9′-xanthen]-3-one (cas: 76-54-0Application of 76-54-0).
2′,7′-Dichloro-3′,6′-dihydroxy-3H-spiro[isobenzofuran-1,9′-xanthen]-3-one (cas: 76-54-0) belongs to benzofurans derivatives. Benzofurans are only weakly aromatic in nature and they are cleaved by many oxidative and reductive conditions. Benzofurans are stable towards alkali and readily polymerize on treatment with sulfuric acid, due to which they are useful for the preparation of low cost chemically relatively inert resins.Application of 76-54-0
