Eight novel compounds were prepared by reaction of 5-(bromo- propoxyphenyl)-10,15,20-triphenylporphyrin with oxazole thiols, 1,3,4-oxadiazole thiols and 1,3,4-thiadiazole thiols, and their structures confirmed by UV-vis, IR, 1H-NMR, MS and elemental analysis. The assessment of indirectly measured 1O(2) production rates against 5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl porphyrin (H(2)TPP) were described and the relative singlet oxygen production yields were：porphyrin 5 > porphyrins 1, 3, 4, 6-8, H(2)TPP > porphyrin 2. Porphyrin 4 and porphyrin 7 showed substantial photocleavage activities toward DNA, with over 75% cleavage observed at 40 µM. It suggested that these those porphyrins with nitrogen heterocycle tails are potential photosensitive agents.

This paper describes a series of 12 9,10-dimethoxyanthracene derivatives functionalized with a range of electronically diverse ethynyl substituents at the 2 and 6 positions, aimed at tuning their optoelectronic properties and reactivity with singlet oxygen (O). Optical spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and density functional theory calculations reveal that the ethynyl groups decrease the HOMO-LUMO gaps in these acenes. Notably, bis(dimethylanilineethynyl) substituents increase the wavelength of absorbance onset by over 60 nm compared to 9,10-dimethoxyanthracene (DMA).

The mode of energy transfer between photosensitizers and oxygen determines the yield of singlet oxygen (O), crucial for photodynamic therapy (PDT). However, the aggregation of photosensitizers promotes electron transfer while inhibiting pure energy transfer, resulting in the generation of the hypotoxic superoxide anion (O) and consumption of substantial oxygen. Herein, we achieve the reduction of the aggregation of photosensitizers to inhibit electron transfer through classical chemical crosslinking, thereby boosting the production of O.

Adverse drug reactions (ADR) remain a challenge in modern healthcare, particularly given the increasing complexity of therapeutics. WHO's definition of an adverse drug reaction as a response to a drug that is noxious and unintended and occurs at doses normally used in man for the prophylaxis, diagnosis or therapy of disease, or for modification of physiological function. This definition underscores the importance of monitoring and mitigating unintended drug effects, particularly for widely used medications like valproic acid (VPA).

Hydrogen peroxide (HO) production through photocatalytic O reduction reaction (ORR) is a mild and cost-efficient alternative to the anthraquinone oxidation strategy. Of note, singlet state oxygen (O) plays a crucial role in ORR. Herein, a hollow TiO@TpPa (TOTP) S-scheme heterojunction by the Schiff base reactions involving 1,3,5-triformylphloroglucinol (Tp) and paraphenylenediamine (Pa) for efficient photocatalytic HO production in deionized water has been developed.

Introduction: The successful diagnosis and treatment of early-stage breast cancer enhances the quality of life of patients. As a promising alternative to recently developed magnetic resonance imaging-guided radiotherapy, we proposed fluorescence molecular imaging-guided photodynamic therapy (FMI-guided PDT), which requires no expensive equipment. In the FMI simulations, ICG-C11 which has emission peaks at near-infrared wavelengths was used as the FMI agent.
