Water-Soluble Gd(III)–Porphyrin Complexes Capable of Both Photosensitization and Relaxation Enhancement

With the aim of developing more stable Gd­(III)–porphyrin complexes, two types of ligands 1 and 2 with carboxylic acid anchors were synthesized. Due to the N-substituted pyridyl cation attached to the porphyrin core, these porphyrin ligands were highly water-soluble and formed the corresponding Gd­(...
