Abstract
Molecular fluorophores emitting in the second near-infrared (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) window with strong optical harvesting and high quantum yields hold great potential for in vivo deep-tissue bioimaging and high-resolution biosensing. Recently, J-aggregates are harnessed to engineer long-wavelength NIR-II emitters and show unique superiority in tumor detection, vessel mapping, surgical navigation, and phototheranostics due to their bathochromic-shifted optical bands in the required slip-stacked arrangement aggregation state. However, despite the preliminary progress of NIR-II J-aggregates and theoretical study of structure-property relationships, further paradigms of NIR-II J-aggregates remain scarce due to the lack of study on aggregated fluorophores with slip-stacked fashion. In this effort, how to utilize the specific molecular structure to form slip-stacked packing motifs with J-type aggregated exciton coupling is emphatically elucidated. First, several molecular regulating strategies to achieve NIR-II J-aggregates containing intermolecular interactions and external conditions are positively summarized and deeply analyzed. Then, the recent reports on J-aggregates for NIR-II bioimaging and theranostics are systematically summarized to provide a clear reference and direction for promoting the development of NIR-II organic fluorophores. Eventually, the prospective efforts on ameliorating and promoting NIR-II J-aggregates to further clinical practices are outlined.

Abstract
With the continuous development of organic materials for optoelectronic devices and biological applications, J-aggregation has attracted a great deal of interest in both dye chemistry and supramolecular chemistry. Except for the characteristic red-shifted absorption and emission, such ordered head-to-tail stacked structures may be accompanied by special properties such as enhanced absorption, narrowed spectral bandwidth, improved photothermal and photodynamic properties, aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE) phenomenon, and so forth. These excellent properties add great potential to J-aggregates for optical imaging and phototherapy in the near-infrared (NIR) region. Despite decades of development, the challenge of rationally designing the molecular structure to adjust intermolecular forces to induce J-aggregation of organic dyes remains significant. In this review, we discuss the formation of J-aggregates in terms of intermolecular interactions and summarize some recent studies on J-aggregation dyes for NIR imaging and phototherapy, to provide a clear direction and reference for designing J-aggregates of near-infrared organic dyes to better enable biological applications. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Emerging Technologies Diagnostic Tools > In Vivo Nanodiagnostics and Imaging Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Oncologic Disease.

Abstract
Reversibly controlling the dye arrangements in living systems has great potential to realize spatiotemporally controlled photomedicine. However, tuning or even maintaining a certain arrangement of dyes in a complex living environments is extremely challenging due to the interference of the various biological species. Herein, a conceptual supramolecular strategy to engineer a switchable photosensitizer (PS) via mitochondria-mediated dynamic interconversion between monomer and J-aggregation, enabling specific activation of the mitochondria-targeting photodynamic therapy (PDT) and hibernation after mitochondria damage is presented. The presented mitochondria-mediated "activate-then-hibernate" PS design enables a fascinating spatiotemporally controlled PDT in which spatially controlled mitochondrial-targeting enhances therapeutic efficacy and temporally controlled activation-then-hibernation averts off-target damage during PDT and tissue damage after clinical treatment, thus offering significant potential for biological research and clinical needs.

Abstract
We report on the control of π-stacking modes (herringbone vs slipped-stack) and photophysical properties of 9,10-bis((E)-2-(pyridin-4-yl)vinyl)anthracene (BP4VA), an anthracene-based organic semiconductor (OSC), by isosteric cocrystallization (i.e., the replacement of one functional group in a coformer with another of "similar" electronic structure) with 2,4,6-trihalophenols (3X-ph-OH, where X = Cl, Br, and I). Specifically, BP4VA organizes as slipped-stacks when cocrystallized with 3Cl-ph-OH and 3Br-ph-OH, while cocrystallization with 3I-ph-OH results in a herringbone mode. The photoluminescence and molecular frontier orbital energy levels of BP4VA were effectively modulated by the presence of 3X-ph-OH through cocrystallization. We envisage that the cocrystallization of OSCs with minimal changes in cocrystal formers can provide access to convenient structural and property diversification for advanced single-crystal electronics.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT), which utilizes photosensitizer to convert molecular oxygen into singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) upon laser irradiation to ablate tumors, will exacerbate the already oxygen shortage of most solid tumors and is thus self-limiting. Herein, a sophisticated photosensitive polymeric material (An-NP) that allows sustained 1 O2 generation and sufficient oxygen supply during the entire phototherapy is engineered by alternatively applying PDT and photothermal therapy (PTT) controlled by two NIR laser beams. In addition to a photosensitizer that generates 1 O2 , An-NP consists of two other key components: a molecularly designed anthracene derivative capable of trapping/releasing 1 O2 with superior reversibility and a dye J-aggregate with superb photothermal performance. Thus, in 655 nm laser-triggered PDT process, An-NP generates abundant 1 O2 with extra 1 O2 being trapped via the conversion into EPO-NP; while in the subsequent 785 nm laser-driven PTT process, the converted EPO-NP undergoes thermolysis to liberate the captured 1 O2 and regenerates An-NP. The intratumoral oxygen level can be replenished during the PTT cycle for the next round of PDT to generate 1 O2 . The working principle and phototherapy efficacy are preliminarily demonstrated in living cells and tumor-bearing mice, respectively.

Abstract
The design of organic photothermal agents (PTAs) for in vivo applications face a demanding set of performance requirements, especially intense NIR-absorptivity and sufficient photobleaching resistance. J-aggregation offers a facile way to tune the optical properties of dyes, thus providing a general design platform for organic PTAs with the desired performance. Herein, we present a supramolecular strategy to build a water-stable, nonphotobleaching, and NIR-absorbing nano-PTA (J-NP) from J-aggregation of halogenated BODIPY dyes (BDP) for efficient in vivo photothermal therapy. Multiple intermolecular halogen-bonding and π-π stacking interactions triggered the formation of BDP J-aggregate, which adsorbed amphiphilic polymer chains on the surface to provide PEGylated sheetlike nano-J-aggregate (J-NS). We serendipitously discovered that the architecture of J-NS was remodeled during a long-time ultrafiltration process, generating a discrete spherical nano-J-aggregate (J-NP) with controlled size. Compared with J-NS, the remodeled J-NP significantly improved cellular uptake efficiency. J-aggregation brought J-NP striking photothermal performance, such as strong NIR-absorptivity, high photothermal conversion efficiency up to 72.0%, and favorable nonphotobleaching ability. PEGylation and shape-remodeling imparted by the polymer coating enabled J-NP to hold biocompatibility and stability in vivo, thereby exhibiting efficient antitumor photothermal activities. This work not only presents a facile J-aggregation strategy for preparing PTAs with high photothermal performance but also establishes a supramolecular platform that enables the appealing optical functions derived from J-aggregation to be applied in vivo.

Abstract
The compounds I (Z)-2-(phenyl)-3-(2,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)acrylonitrile with one side (2,4,5-MeO-), one symmetrical (2Z,2'Z)-2,2'-(1,4-phenylene)bis(3-(2,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)acrylonitrile), II (both sides with (2,4,5-MeO-), and three positional isomers with pyridine (Z)-2-(pyridin-2- 3, or 4-yl)-3-(2,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)acrylonitrile, III-V were synthetized and characterized by UV-Vis, fluorescence, IR, H1-NMR, and EI mass spectrometry as well as single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD). The optical properties were strongly influenced by the solvent (hyperchromic and hypochromic shift), which were compared with the solid state. According to the solvatochromism theory, the excited-state (μe) and ground-state (μg) dipole moments were calculated based on the variation of Stokes shift with the solvent's relative permittivity, refractive index, and polarity parameters. SCXRD analyses revealed that the compounds I and II crystallized in the monoclinic system with the space group, P21/n and P21/c, respectively, and with Z = 4 and 2. III, IV, and V crystallized in space groups: orthorhombic, Pbca; triclinic, P-1; and monoclinic, P21 with Z = 1, 2, and 2, respectively. The intermolecular interactions for compounds I-V were investigated using the CCDC Mercury software and their energies were quantified using PIXEL. The density of states (DOS), molecular electrostatic potential surfaces (MEPS), and natural bond orbitals (NBO) of the compounds were determined to evaluate the photophysical properties.

Abstract
The ability to tune the optical features of BODIPY materials in the solid state is essential for their photorelated application and requires efficient control of the crystal packing. In this study, such control of BODIPY supramolecular assemblies was achieved by deliberate design and synthesis of a BODIPY containing a strong halogen-bond (XB) acceptor (-NO2 ) and donor (I, Br) to mediate XB interactions. The di-halogenated structures formed isostructural mono-coordinate motif B3, B4 (1D tubular structure) and symmetric bifurcated motif B4-II (1D zigzag chains structure) through N-O⋅⋅⋅I, Br XB interactions. These XB interactions promote singlet-to-triplet intersystem crossing and triplet-to-singlet reverse intersystem crossing due to partial delocalization of oxygen electrons onto Br and I, which leads to unexpected fluorescence enhancement of B4-II. Finally, the indirect optical band gaps of B3, B4 and B4-II were amenable to tuning in the range of 1.85-2.50 eV by XB-driven crystal packings.

Abstract
Marring the reversible covalent chemistry with BODIPY dye, which is a superfamily of fluorophores with striking photophysical performances, would enable a panel of diverse dynamic fluorescent probes for biomedical applications. Herein we show that structural manipulation of BODIPY allows rational tuning of α-site or meso-site activation as well as the spectral response toward nucleophiles. By rational molecular design, we have obtained a highly specific and reversible GSH probe, αBD-GSH, which exhibits a tremendously fast and dynamic fluorescence response within the wide physiological GSH concentration range of 0-8 mM. We successfully applied αBD-GSH to real-time imaging of intracellular GSH dynamics in different cell lines. In light of the remarkable photophysical properties and synthesis flexibility of BODIPY dyes, the current findings will help to design more reversible BODIPY-based fluorescent probes targeting various bio-species.

Abstract
The question as to whether the F atom can engage in a halogen bond (XB) remains unsettled. This issue is addressed via density functional theory calculations which pair a wide range of organic and inorganic F-acids with various sorts of Lewis bases. From an energetic perspective, perfluorinated hydrocarbons with sp, sp2, or sp3 C-hybridization are unable to form an XB with an N-base, but a very weak bond can be formed if electron-withdrawing C≡N substituents are added to the acid. There is little improvement for inorganic acids O2NF, FOF, ClF, BrF, SiF4, or GeF4, but F2 is capable of a stronger XB of up to 5 kcal/mol. These results are consistent with a geometric criterion, which compares the intermolecular equilibrium distance with the sum of atomic van der Waals radii. The intensity of the σ-hole on the F atom has predictive value in that a Vs,max of at least 10-15 kcal/mol is required for XB formation. Adding a positive charge to the Lewis acid enhances the strength of any XB and even more so if the base is anionic. The acid-base interaction induces a contraction of the r(AF) covalent bond in the acid in most cases and a deshielding of the NMR signal of the F nucleus.
