abstract = "An easy route to cationic β-vinyl substituted meso- tetraphenylporphyrin derivatives is described. Two novel compounds were tested in vitro for their antiviral photoactivity against herpes simplex virus type 1. One of these compounds exhibited a significant activity, reaching 99\% of virus inactivation after 15 min of photoactivation.",
