Singlet oxygen generation using iodinated squaraine and squaraine-rotaxane dyes.
The goal of this study was to assess the ability of squaraine-rotaxanes to generate singlet oxygen for potential application in photodynamic therapy (PDT). Specifically, we compare the aggregation and photophysical properties of an iodinated squaraine dye and an iodinated squaraine-rotaxane. Even under strongly aggregating conditions, the absorption spectra of both remain relatively sharp. An X...
متن کاملEfficient synthesis of fluorescent squaraine rotaxane dendrimers.
A squaraine rotaxane scaffold with four alkyne groups is readily converted into a range of dendritic architectures using high-yielding copper-catalyzed alkyne azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) chemistry. A convergent synthesis approach is more efficient than a divergent pathway. Dendritic squaraine rotaxanes with peripheral amine groups can be further functionalized to produce multivalent deep-red fl...
متن کاملNew squaraine dyes for photodynamic therapy
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) [1]consists in the activation of molecular oxygen under irradiation by light in the presence of photodrugs (photosensitizers, PS) that have been previously selectively accumulated in the target tissues. In comparison with conventional treatment methods, PDT is considered to be a clinical treatment with high safety, few side effects, reliable repeatability, and relativ...
متن کاملThermally-activated chemiluminescent squaraine rotaxane endoperoxide with green emission.
A squaraine rotaxane endoperoxide with a truncated squaraine chromophore undergoes a cycloreversion reaction and emits green light that can be transferred to red acceptor dyes. The results demonstrate that chemiluminescence emission for squaraine rotaxane endoperoxides comes from the excited squaraine inside the rotaxane.
متن کاملSquaraine rotaxane as a reversible optical chloride sensor.
A mechanically interlocked squaraine rotaxane is comprised of a deep-red fluorescent squaraine dye inside a tetralactam macrocycle. NMR studies show that Cl(-) binding to the rotaxane induces macrocycle translocation away from the central squaraine station, a process that is completely reversed when the Cl(-) is removed from the solution. Steady-state fluorescence and excited-state lifetime mea...
