Article Synopsis
- Boronated molecular systems, particularly carborane-containing phthalocyanines, show promise for boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT).
- A new zinc (II) complex of hexacationic phthalocyanine was synthesized and characterized through various spectroscopic techniques, showing good water solubility and a tendency to aggregate.
- This complex effectively enriches UMR-106 cells with boron even at low concentrations, demonstrating mild cytotoxic effects due to its positive charge facilitating cell membrane interaction.
