THE SYNTHESIS OF DIHEMATOPORPHYRIN ETHER AND RELATED PORPHYRIN DIMERS
Morris, Ian K.,Ward, A. David
, p. 2501 - 2504 (1988)
Dihematoporphyrin ether (DHE) has been synthesised by two separate procedures; these routes also allow the synthesis of ether linked porphyrin dimers containing one or two vinyl groups rather than hydroxyethyl side chains.The latter dimers, but not DHE, have anti-cancer activity.
