A series of novel zinc(II) phthalocyanines tetra-substituted or mono-substituted with piperazinyl moieties linked by different ethoxy chains has been prepared and characterized. The effects of the N-protecting group of piperazinyl moiety, length of ethoxy chains and number of substitutes on the photophysical, photochemical properties, cellular uptakes and in?vitro photodynamic antifungal activities have also been examined. All of these compounds are essentially non-aggregated and good singlet oxygen generators with quantum yields (¦µ_¦¤) of 0.54-0.77 in N,N-dimethylformamide. The photodynamic activity of these compounds against Candida albicans follows the order: 7?>?5a?>?5b?>?4a?¡Ö?4b. The mono-substituted phthalocyanine 7 exhibits the highest photodynamic inactivation of C.?albicans with an IC₉₀ value of 9?¦ÌM, which can be attributed to its better amphiphilicity and even higher cellular uptake. The results suggest that phthalocyanine 7 is a potential photosensitizer for antifungal photodynamic therapy.
