Abstract:

The porphyrin modified with 5-fluorouracil(5-[2-(5-fluorouracil-3-yl)-ethoxyphenyl]-10,15,20-tri(4-methoxyphenyl) porphyrin) and its two metal porphyrin complexes: 5-[2-(5-fluorouracil-3-yl)-ethoxyphenyl]-10,15,20-tri(4-methoxyphenyl) Mn porphyrin and 5-[2-(5-fluorouracil-3-yl)-ethoxyphenyl]-10,15,20-tri(4-methoxyphenyl) Zn porphyrin were synthesized. The structures of the three compounds were characterized by ultraviolet visible spectroscopy(UV-Vis), infred spectroscopy(IR) and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy(1 H NMR). The antitumor activities of these compounds to A549, Bel7402, HCT-8 were tested using the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) method. The results show that the IC50 value of Mn porphyrin to HCT-8 is 17.8 mg/L.

Key words: porphyrin, fluorouracil, antitumor activity
