✦ Synopsis

Photophysical properties of a lipophilic chlorin derivative and its zinc and tin chelates were investigated in chloroform. The quantum yields of the fluorescence phi F, of the S1----T1 intersystem crossing phi T and of singlet oxygen (1 delta g) formation phi delta, as well as the Stern-Volmer constants for the quenching of the S1 states by oxygen and the rate constants of quenching of O2(1 delta g) by the chlorins were measured. In comparison to the metal-free chlorin an increase of phi T and a decrease of phi F have been observed for the metal-containing derivatives, whereas the phi delta values remain constant.

The properties of a new photosensitizer, meso-tetrahydroxyphenyl-chlorin (mTHPC), were studied using W9 cells (Chinese-hamster lung fibroblasts). Comparisons were made with 2 other photosensitizers: photofrin II (PII) and meso-tetrahydroxyphenyl-porphyrin (mTHPP). A main advantage of mTHPC is that i
