Three 2-(morpholin-4-yl)ethoxy substituted phthalocyanines were synthesized and characterized. Phthalocyanine derivatives revealed moderate to high quantum yields of singlet oxygen production depending on the solvent applied (e.g., in DMF ranging from 0.25 0.53). Their photosensitizing potential for photodynamic therapy was investigated an vitro model using cancer cell lines. Biological test results found particularly encouraging zinc(II) phthalocyanine derivative possessing two substituents...
