Abstract
This study presents a tetra-substituted phthalonitrile derivative, namely, diethyl 2-(3,4-dicyano-2,5-bis(hexyloxy)-6-(4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenoxy)phenyl)malonate (a), cyclotetramerizing in the presence of some metal salts. The resultant hexadeca-substituted metal phthalocyanines [M= Co, Zn, InCl)] (b-d) were used for the modification of reduced graphene oxide for the first time. The effect of the phthalonitrile/metal phthalocyanines on biological features of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was extensively examined by the investigation of antioxidant, antimicrobial, DNA cleavage, cell viability, and antibiofilm activities of nanobioagents (1-4). The results were compared with those of unmodified rGO (nanobioagent 5), as well. Modification of reduced graphene oxide with the synthesized compounds improved its antioxidant activity. The antioxidant activities of all the tested nanobioagents also enhanced as the concentration increased. The antibacterial activities of all the nanobioagents improved by applying the photodynamic therapeutic (PDT) method. All the phthalonitrile/phthalocyanine-based nanobioagents (especially phthalocyanine-based nanocomposites) exhibited DNA cleavage activities, and complete DNA fragmentation was observed for nanobioagents (1-4) at 200 mg/L. They can be used as potent antimicrobial and antimicrobial photodynamic therapy agents as well as Escherichia coli microbial cell inhibitors. As a result, the prepared nanocomposites can be considered promising candidates for biomedicine.

ÖMEROĞLU İ, DURMUŞ M. Water-soluble phthalocyanine photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy. Turk J Chem 2023; 47:837-863.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is based on a photochemical reaction that is started when a photosensitizing process is activated by the light and results in the death of tumor cells. Solubility is crucial in PDT applications to investigate the physical and chemical characteristics of phthalocyanines, but, unfortunately, most phthalocyanines show limited solubility especially in water. To increase the solubility of phthalocyanines in polar solvents and water, ionic groups such as -SO3-, -NR3+, -COO-, and nonionic groups such as polyoxy chains are frequently added to the peripheral or nonperipheral positions of the phthalocyanine framework. Since water-solubility and NIR-absorbing properties are essential for efficient PDT activation, studies have been focused on the synthesis of these types of phthalocyanine derivatives. This review focuses on the photophysical, photochemical, and some in vitro or in vivo studies of the recently published ionic and nonionic phthalocyanine-mediated photosensitizers carried out in the last five years. This review will have positive contributions to future studies on phthalocyanine chemistry and their PDT applications as well as photochemistry.

Abstract
New asymmetric Si(IV)Pc (1), monomeloxicammonotriethyleneglycolmonomethylether (phthalocyaninano)silicone, axially ligated with meloxicam as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), or triethylene glycol monomethyl ether and symmetric Si(IV)Pc (2), diclofenac(phthalocyaninano)silicone, axially ligated with two diclofenac as NSAID, were synthesized and characterized as antioxidant and antimicrobial agents together with polyoxo-SiPc (3), ditriethyleneglycolmonomethylether(phthalocyaninano)silicone, and SiPc(OH)2 (4), dihydroxy(phthalocyaninano)silicone. The photophysical and photochemical properties of these compounds were investigated. Then, antioxidant assays, including 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and ferrous ion chelating activities, were performed for these Si(IV) phthalocyanine derivatives (1, 2, 3 and 4). The highest DPPH scavenging activity of 73.48% was achieved with compound 2 and the highest ferrous chelating ability of 66.42% was obtained with compound 3. The results of the antioxidant assays indicated that Pc derivatives 1, 2 and 3 have remarkable superoxide radical scavenging activities, and moderate 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl activities and metal chelating activities. The antimicrobial effects of the Si(IV) phthalocyanine compounds were studied against six pathogenic bacteria and two pathogenic microfungi. The results for the antimicrobial activity of these compounds indicated that Enterococcus faecalis (ATCC 29212) was the most sensitive microorganism and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 27853) and Legionella pneumophila subsp. pneumophila (ATCC 33152) were the most resistant microorganisms against the tested compounds. The DNA cleavage ability and microbial cell viability of these compounds were studied. The studied compounds demonstrated excellent DNA nuclease activity and exhibited 100% cell viability inhibition at 500 mg L-1. Also, the antimicrobial photodynamic therapy of the compounds was tested against Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922) and significant photodynamic antimicrobial activity was observed. In addition, the effect of phthalocyanines on biofilm inhibition produced by Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923) was also tested and 3 showed excellent biofilm inhibition of 82.14%.

Abstract
Phthalocyanine derivatives have been proposed as photosensitizers for the treatment of several microbial infections. In this review, the progress in the structures of phthalocyanines was analyzed, considering that these compounds can easily functionalize and can form complexes with various metal ions. In this sense, different substituents were used to increase the interaction with the microorganisms, improving their photodynamic inactivation. Furthermore, these photosensitizers absorb strongly at phototherapeutic window, emit red fluorescence, and efficiently produce the formation of reactive oxygen species. Subsequently, the influence of binding, bacteria types, cell density, washing effect, and media on photoinactivation was remarked to elimination of microbes. Finally, photokilling of bacterial biofilm by phthalocyanines and the mechanism of action were discussed. Therefore, this review brings together the main features of phthalocyanines as antimicrobial phototherapeutic agents.

Constructing a Rigid-and-Flexible Twin-Stage Gradient Interphase through Starlike Copolymer Coating on Carbon Fibers: A Route for Enhancing Interfacial Properties of Composites.

Abstract
A rigid-and-flexible interphase was established by a starlike copolymer (Pc-PGMA/Pc) consisting of one tetraaminophthalocyanine (TAPc) core with four TAPc-difunctionalized poly(glycidyl methacrylate) (PGMA) arms through the surface modification of carbon fibers (CFs) and compared with various interphases constructed by TAPc and TAPc-connected PGMA (Pc-PGMA). The increase in the content of N-C═O showed that PGMA/Pc branches were successfully attached onto the CF-(Pc-PGMA/Pc) surface, exhibiting concavo-convex microstructures with the highest roughness. Through adhesive force spectroscopy by atomic force microscopy (AFM) with peak force quantitative nanomechanical mapping (PF-QNM) mode and visualization of the relative distribution of TAPc/PGMA via a Raman spectrometer, a rigid interphase with highly cross-linked TAPc and a flexible layer from PGMA arms as the soft segment were separately detected in CF-TAPc/EP and CF-(Pc-PGMA)/EP composites. The rigid-and-flexible interphase in the CF-(Pc-PGMA/Pc)/EP composite provided excellent stress-transfer capability by the rigid inner modulus intermediate layer and energy absorption efficiency from the flexible outer layer, which contributed to 64.6 and 61.8% increment of transverse fiber bundle test (TFBT) strength, and 33.8 and 40.6% enhancement in interfacial shear strength (IFSS) in comparison with those of CF-TAPc/EP and CF-(Pc-PGMA)/EP composites. Accordingly, schematic models of the interphase reinforcing mechanism were proposed. The interfacial failures in CF-TAPc/EP and CF-(Pc-PGMA)/EP composites were derived from the rigid interphase without effective relaxation of interfacial stress and soft interphase with excessive fiber-matrix interface slippage, respectively. The cohesive failure in the CF-(Pc-PGMA/Pc)/EP composite was attributed to the crack deflection through the balance of the modulus and deformability from the twin-stage gradient intermediate layer.
