A general synthetic route was developed for the synthesis of new fluorinated tetra(hydroxyphenyl) porphyrins [5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2-fluoro-3-hydroxyphenyl)porphyrin 10, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2,4-difluoro-3-hydroxyphenyl)porphyrin 11, and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(3,5-difluoro-4-hydroxyphenyl)porphyrin 12], analogues of sensitisers 1-3 which are known to be active in vivo in cancer photodynamic therapy.
