Abstract
The reactive singlet state of oxygen (O2) can decay to the triplet ground state nonradiatively in the presence of a solvent. There is a controversy about whether tunnelling is involved in this nonadiabatic spin-crossover process. Semiclassical instanton theory provides a reliable and practical computational method for elucidating the reaction mechanism and can account for nuclear quantum effects such as zero-point energy and multidimensional tunnelling. However, the previously developed instanton theory is not directly applicable to this system because of a branch-point singularity which appears in the flux correlation function. Here we derive a new instanton theory for cases dominated by the singularity, leading to a new picture of tunnelling in nonadiabatic processes. Together with multireference electronic-structure theory, this provides a rigorous framework based on first principles that we apply to calculate the decay rate of singlet oxygen in water. The results indicate a new reaction mechanism that is 27 orders of magnitude faster at room temperature than the classical process through the minimum-energy crossing point. We find significant heavy-atom tunnelling contributions as well as a large temperature-dependent H2O/D2O kinetic isotope effect of approximately 20, in excellent agreement with experiment.

Abstract
Singlet dioxygen has been widely applied in different disciplines such as medicine (photodynamic therapy or blood sterilization), remediation (wastewater treatment) or industrial processes (fine chemicals synthesis). Particularly, it can be conveniently generated by energy transfer between a photosensitizer's triplet state and triplet dioxygen upon irradiation with visible light. Among the best photosensitizers, substituted zinc(II) phthalocyanines are prominent due to their excellent photophysical properties, which can be tuned by structural modifications, such as halogen- and chalcogen-atom substitution. These patterns allow for the enhancement of spin-orbit coupling, commonly attributed to the heavy atom effect, which correlates with the atomic number ( Z ${Z}$ ) and the spin-orbit coupling constant ( ζ ${\zeta }$ ) of the introduced heteroatom. Herein, a fully systematic analysis of the effect exerted by chalcogen atoms on the photophysical characteristics (absorption and fluorescence properties, lifetimes and singlet dioxygen photogeneration), involving 30 custom-made β-tetrasubstituted chalcogen-bearing zinc(II) phthalocyanines is described and evaluated regarding the heavy atom effect. Besides, the intersystem crossing rate constants are estimated by several independent methods and a quantitative profile of the heavy atom is provided by using linear correlations between relative intersystem crossing rates and relative atomic numbers. Good linear trends for both intersystem crossing rates (S1-T1 and T1-S0) were obtained, with a dependency on the atomic number and the spin-orbit coupling constant scaling asZ 0 . 4 ${{Z}^{0.4}}$ andζ 0 . 2 ${{\zeta }^{0.2}}$ , respectively The trend shows to be independent of the solvent and temperature.

Abstract
Heterogenization of Eosin Y by 3D-printing and its application in photocatalysis are reported. The approach allows a fine tuning of the photocatalyst morphology and its rapid preparation. Photocatalytic activity was evaluated through model organic reactions involving oxidation, reduction, and photosensitization pathways. The efficiency, recyclability and stability of 3D printed EY is remarkable paving the way to new generation of heterogeneous photocatalysts with a perfect control of their shape and adaptable to any photoreactors.

Mild selective photochemical oxidation of an organic sulfide using OxP-polyimide porous polymers as singlet oxygen generators. SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY OF ADVANCED MATERIALS 2024; 25:2322458. [PMID: 38440402 PMCID: PMC10911228 DOI: 10.1080/14686996.2024.2322458] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 02/17/2024] [Indexed: 03/06/2024]
Abstract
A series of porous organic polymers based on a singlet oxygen generating oxoporphyinogen ('OxP') has been successfully prepared from a pseudotetrahedral OxP-tetraamine precursor (OxP(4-NH2Bn)4) by its reaction with tetracarboxylic acid dianhydrides under suitable conditions. Of the compounds studied, those containing naphthalene (OxP-N) and perylene (OxP-P) spacers, respectively, have large surface areas (~530 m2 g-1). On the other hand, the derivative with a simple benzene spacer (OxP-B) exhibits the best 1O2 generating capability. Although the starting OxP-tetraamine precursor is a poor 1O2 generator, its incorporation into OxP POPs leads to a significant enhancement of 1O2 productivity, which is largely due to the transformation of NH2 groups to electron-withdrawing diimides. Overall 1O2 production efficacy of OxP-POPs under irradiation by visible light is significantly improved over the common reference material PCN-222. All the materials OxP-B, OxP-N and OxP-P promote oxidation of thioanisole involving conversion of ambient triplet state oxygen to singlet oxygen under visible light irradiation and its reaction with the sulfide. Although the reaction rate of the oxidation promoted by OxP POPs is generally lower than for conventional materials (such as PCN-222) or previously studied OxP derivatives, undesired overoxidation of the substrate to methyl phenyl sulfone is suppressed. For organic sulfides, selectivity of oxidation is especially important for detoxification of mustard gas (bis(2-chloroethyl)sulfide) or similarly toxic compounds since controlled oxidation leads to the low toxicity bis(2-chloroethyl)sulfoxide while overoxidation leads to intoxification (since bis(2-chloroethyl)sulfone presents greater toxicity to humans than the sulfide substrate). Therefore, OxP POPs capable of promoting selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides have excellent potential to be used as mild and selective detoxification agents.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen (1O2) is molecular oxygen in the excited state with high energy and electrophilic properties. It is widely found in nature, and its important role is gradually extending from chemical syntheses and medical techniques to environmental remediation. However, there exist ambiguities and controversies regarding detection methods, generation pathways, and reaction mechanisms which have hindered the understanding and applications of 1O2. For example, the inaccurate detection of 1O2 has led to an overestimation of its role in pollutant degradation. The difficulty in detecting multiple intermediate species obscures the mechanism of 1O2 production. The applications of 1O2 in environmental remediation have also not been comprehensively commented on. To fill these knowledge gaps, this paper systematically discussed the properties and generation of 1O2, reviewed the state-of-the-art detection methods for 1O2 and long-standing controversies in the catalytic systems. Future opportunities and challenges were also discussed regarding the applications of 1O2 in the degradation of pollutants dissolved in water and volatilized in the atmosphere, the disinfection of drinking water, the gas/solid sterilization, and the self-cleaning of filter membranes. This review is expected to provide a better understanding of 1O2-based advanced oxidation processes and practical applications in the environmental protection of 1O2.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen (1O2) mediated photo-oxidations are important reactions involved in numerous processes in chemical and biological sciences. While most of the current research works have aimed at improving the efficiencies of these transformations either by increasing 1O2 quantum yields or by enhancing its lifetime, we establish herein that immobilization of a molecular photosensitizer onto silica surfaces affords significant, substrate dependant, enhancement in the reactivity of 1O2. Probing a classical model reaction (oxidation of Anthracene-9, 10-dipropionic acid, ADPA or dimethylanthracene, DMA) with various spectrofluorimetric techniques, it is here proposed that an interaction between polar substrates and the silica surface is responsible for the observed phenomenon. This discovery could have a direct impact on the design of future photosensitized 1O2 processes in various applications ranging from organic photochemistry to photobiology.

Singlet oxygen in the removal of organic pollutants: An updated review on the degradation pathways based on mass spectrometry and DFT calculations. CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 345:140203. [PMID: 37734498 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.140203] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2023] [Revised: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 09/15/2023] [Indexed: 09/23/2023]
Abstract
The degradation of pollutants by a non-radical pathway involving singlet oxygen (1O2) is highly relevant in advanced oxidation processes. Photosensitizers, modified photocatalysts, and activated persulfates can generate highly selective 1O2 in the medium. The selective reaction of 1O2 with organic pollutants results in the evolution of different intermediate products. While these products can be identified using mass spectrometry (MS) techniques, predicting a proper degradation mechanism in a 1O2-based process is still challenging. Earlier studies utilized MS techniques in the identification of intermediate products and the mechanism was proposed with the support of theoretical calculations. Although some reviews have been reported on the generation of 1O2 and its environmental applications, a proper review of the degradation mechanism by 1O2 is not yet available. Hence, we reviewed the possible degradation pathways of organic contaminants in 1O2-mediated oxidation with the support of density functional theory (DFT). The Fukui function (FF, f-, f+, and f0), HOMO-LUMO energies, and Gibbs free energies obtained using DFT were used to identify the active site in the molecule and the degradation mechanism, respectively. Electrophilic addition, outer sphere type single electron transfer (SET), and addition to the hetero atoms are the key mechanisms involved in the degradation of organic contaminants by 1O2. Since environmental matrices contain several contaminants, it is difficult to experiment with all contaminants to identify their intermediate products. Therefore, the DFT studies are useful for predicting the intermediate compounds during the oxidative removal of the contaminants, especially for complex composition wastewater.

Abstract
Donor-acceptor Stenhouse adduct (DASA) photoswitches have gained a lot of attention since their discovery in 2014. Their negative photochromism, visible light absorbance, synthetic tunability, and the large property changes between their photoisomers make them attractive candidates over other commonly used photoswitches for use in materials with responsive or adaptive properties. The development of such materials and their translation into advanced technologies continues to widely impact forefront materials research, and DASAs have thus attracted considerable interest in the field of visible-light responsive molecular switches and dynamic materials. Despite this interest, there have been challenges in understanding their complex behavior in the context of both small molecule studies and materials. Moreover, incorporation of DASAs into polymers can be challenging due to their incompatibility with the conditions for most common polymerization techniques. In this review, therefore, we examine and critically discuss the recent developments and challenges in the field of DASA-containing polymers, aiming at providing a better understanding of the interplay between the properties of both constituents (matrix and photoswitch). The first part summarizes current understanding of DASA design and switching properties. The second section discusses strategies of incorporation of DASAs into polymers, properties of DASA-containing materials, and methods for studying switching of DASAs in materials. We also discuss emerging applications for DASA photoswitches in polymeric materials, ranging from light-responsive drug delivery systems, to photothermal actuators, sensors and photoswitchable surfaces. Last, we summarize the current challenges in the field and venture on the steps required to explore novel systems and expand both the functional properties and the application opportunities of DASA-containing polymers.

Abstract
Prodrugs have emerged as a major strategy for addressing clinical challenges by improving drug pharmacokinetics, reducing toxicity, and enhancing treatment efficacy. The emergence of new bioorthogonal chemistry has greatly facilitated the development of prodrug strategies, enabling their activation through chemical and physical stimuli. This "on-demand" activation using bioorthogonal chemistry has revolutionized the research and development of prodrugs. Consequently, prodrug activation has garnered significant attention and emerged as an exciting field of translational research. This review summarizes the latest advancements in prodrug activation by utilizing bioorthogonal chemistry and mainly focuses on the activation of small-molecule prodrugs and antibody-drug conjugates. In addition, this review also discusses the opportunities and challenges of translating these advancements into clinical practice.

Abstract
Beyond the traditional exciton-based energy transfer, carrier-involved charge transfer provides an alternative pathway to overcoming spin restriction in photocatalytic singlet oxygen (1O2) generation. However, the charge-transfer-mediated method usually suffers from insufficient charge-carrier concentration and distribution, which are related to the electronic band structure. Herein, exemplified by polymeric carbon nitride (PCN), we propose an orbital-redistribution strategy for facilitating charge-transfer-mediated 1O2 generation. On the basis of theoretical simulation and spectroscopic characterizations, we demonstrated that the incorporation of bromine could dramatically facilitate the redistribution of the HOMO and LUMO in PCN, resulting in promoted exciton dissociation and adjacent electron/hole distribution. Benefiting from those, bromine-doped polymeric carbon nitride (Br-PCN) exhibited an obvious enhancement in the production of 1O2 via a two-step charge-transfer process. This work not only uncovers a promising method for regulating photoexcitation in polymeric photocatalysts but also sheds new light on photocatalytic 1O2 generation.

Abstract
In organic chemistry, selecting mild conditions for transformations and saving energy are increasingly important for achieving sustainable development goals. Herein, we describe a red-light-mediated Barton decarboxylation using readily available red-light-emitting diodes as the energy source and zinc tetraphenylporphyrin as the catalyst, avoiding explosive or hazardous reagents or external heating. Mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction probably proceeds via Dexter energy transfer between the activated catalyst and the Barton ester. Furthermore, a one-pot wavelength-selective reaction within the visible light range is developed in combination with a blue-light-mediated photoredox reaction, demonstrating the compatibility of two photochemical transformations based on mechanistic differences. This one-pot process expands the limits of the decarboxylative Giese reaction beyond polarity matching.

Abstract
Nanostructured oxides (SiO2, TiO2) were synthesized using the sol-gel method and modified with noble metal nanoparticles (Pt, Au) and ruthenium dye to enhance light harvesting and promote the photogeneration of reactive oxygen species, namely singlet oxygen (1O2) and hydroxyl radical (•OH). The resulting nanostructures were embedded in a transparent polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel. Morphological and structural characterization of the bare and modified oxides was performed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), UV-Vis spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Additionally, electrokinetic potential measurements were conducted. Crystallinity data and elemental analysis of the investigated systems were obtained through X-ray diffraction and X-ray fluorescence analyses, while the chemical state of the elements was determined using XPS. The engineered materials, both as simple powders and embedded in the hydrogel, were evaluated for their ability to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) under visible and simulated solar light irradiation to establish a correlation with their antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. The generation of singlet oxygen (1O2) by the samples under visible light exposure can be of significant importance for their potential use in biomedical applications.

Abstract
In this work, we test a recently developed method to enhance classical auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo (AFQMC) calculations with quantum computers against examples from chemistry and material science, representative of classes of industry-relevant systems. As molecular test cases, we calculate the energy curve of H4 and the relative energies of ozone and singlet molecular oxygen with respect to triplet molecular oxygen, which is industrially relevant in organic oxidation reactions. We find that trial wave functions beyond single Slater determinants improve the performance of AFQMC and allow it to generate energies close to chemical accuracy compared to full configuration interaction or experimental results. In the field of material science, we study the electronic structure properties of cuprates through the quasi-1D Fermi-Hubbard model derived from CuBr2, where we find that trial wave functions with both significantly larger fidelities and lower energies over a mean-field solution do not necessarily lead to AFQMC results closer to the exact ground state energy.

Abstract
Phenazine-2,3-diol-based dyes, KY-1Na and KY-2Na bearing one and two carboxylic acid sodium salts, respectively, have been newly developed as water-soluble photosensitizers (PSs) possessing the ability to generate singlet oxygen (1O2). In order to evaluate the solubility of KY-1Na and KY-2Na in water, the hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity of the two PSs was investigated by experimental measurement of the logarithms (log Po/w) of the 1-octanol/water partition coefficient (Po/w) for the PS. The log Po/w values of both KY-1Na and KY-2Na were determined to be -0.9, indicating that both the PSs are more hydrophilic than Rose Bengal (-0.6) and have hydrophilicity equivalent to methylene blue (-0.9). Both the PSs in water show a broad photoabsorption band in the range of 500 to 600 nm. Thus, we estimated the 1O2 quantum yields (ΦΔ) of KY-1Na and KY-2Na in water by using 9,10-anthracenediyl-bis(methylene)dimalonic acid (ABDA) as a water-soluble 1O2 scavenger. It was found that in water the ΦΔ value (0.19) of KY-2Na is higher than that of KY-1Na (0.06). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggested that the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) distributions for the molecular structure of KY-2Na are adequately separated, leading to a decrease in the energy gap (ΔEST) between the singlet state (S1) and the triplet state (T1) that causes efficient intersystem crossing (ISC), compared to that for the molecular structure of KY-1Na. Indeed, time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) calculations demonstrated that the ΔEST(S1-T1) value (0.82 eV) of KY-2Na is smaller than that (0.98 eV) of KY-1Na, resulting in a relatively high ΦΔ value of KY-2Na. Consequently, we demonstrate that phenazine-2,3-diol-based PSs bearing carboxylic acid salts possess high solubility and moderate 1O2 generation ability in water.

Abstract
The photophysical characteristics of some homoleptic ruthenium(ii) phenanthroline derivatives are investigated in aqueous medium. The lifetimes of the excited 3MLCT state of the studied complexes were found to be very sensitive to the type of the substituents on the phenanthroline ligand and were found to increase from about 0.96 μs in case of the parent [Ru(Phen)3]2+ complex to 2.97 μs in case of [Ru(DPPhen)3]2+. The transient absorption spectra of the current set of complexes were studied also in aqueous medium. Quenching of the excited 3MLCT states of the studied complexes by molecular oxygen were studied and quenching rate constants were found to be in the range 1.02-4.83 × 109 M-1 s-1. Values of singlet oxygen quantum yields were found to be in the range 0.01 to 0.25, and the corresponding efficiencies of singlet oxygen thereby produced, f T Δ, were in the range 0.03-0.52. The mechanism by which the excited 3MLCT state is quenched by oxygen is discussed in light of the spin statistical factor rate constants and the competition between charge transfer and non-charge transfer quenching pathways. The partial charge transfer parameters, p CT, were obtained and found to be about 0.88 for all complexes except for complexes with f T Δ values lower than 0.25. The correlation of the activation free energies ΔG ≠ of the exciplexes formation with the driving force for charge transfer, ΔG CET, gives a charge transfer character of the exciplexes of about 35.0%.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen (1O2) is a type of reactive oxygen species (ROS), playing a vital role in the physiological and pathophysiological processes. Specific probes for monitoring intracellular 1O2 still remain challenging. In this study, we develop a ratiometric fluorescent probe for the real-time intracellular detection of 1O2 using o-phenylenediamine-derived carbonized polymer dots (o-PD CPDs). The o-PD CPDs possessing dual-excitation-emission properties (blue and yellow fluorescence) were successfully synthesized in a two-phase system (water/acetonitrile) using an ionic liquid tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate as a supporting electrolyte through the electrolysis of o-PD. The o-PD CPDs can act as a photosensitizer to produce 1O2 upon white LED irradiation, in turn, the generated 1O2 selectively quenches the yellow emission of the o-PD CPDs. This quenching behavior is ascribed to the specific cycloaddition reaction between 1O2 and alkene groups in the polymer scaffolds on o-PD CPDs. The interior carbon core can be a reliable internal standard since its blue fluorescence intensity remains unchanged in the presence of 1O2. The ratiometric response of o-PD CPDs is selective toward 1O2 against other ROS species. The developed o-PD CPDs have been successfully applied to monitor the 1O2 level in the intracellular environment. Furthermore, in the inflammatory neutrophil cell model, o-PD CPDs can also detect the 1O2 and other ROS species such as hypochlorous acid after phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-induced inflammation. Through the dual-channel fluorescence imaging, the ratiometric response of o-PD CPDs shows great potential for detecting endogenous and stimulating 1O2in vivo.

Abstract
Nonheme iron(III)-superoxo intermediates are generated in the activation of dioxygen (O2) by nonheme iron(II) complexes and then converted to iron(IV)-oxo species by reacting with hydrogen donor substrates with relatively weak C-H bonds. If singlet oxygen (1O2) with ca. 1 eV higher energy than the ground state triplet oxygen (3O2) is employed, iron(IV)-oxo complexes can be synthesized using hydrogen donor substrates with much stronger C-H bonds. However, 1O2 has never been used in generating iron(IV)-oxo complexes. Herein, we report that a nonheme iron(IV)-oxo species, [FeIV(O)(TMC)]2+ (TMC = tetramethylcyclam), is generated using 1O2, which is produced with boron subphthalocyanine chloride (SubPc) as a photosensitizer, and hydrogen donor substrates with relatively strong C-H bonds, such as toluene (BDE = 89.5 kcal mol-1), via electron transfer from [FeII(TMC)]2+ to 1O2, which is energetically more favorable by 0.98 eV, as compared with electron transfer from [FeII(TMC)]2+ to 3O2. Electron transfer from [FeII(TMC)]2+ to 1O2 produces an iron(III)-superoxo complex, [FeIII(O2)(TMC)]2+, followed by abstracting a hydrogen atom from toluene by [FeIII(O2)(TMC)]2+ to form an iron(III)-hydroperoxo complex, [FeIII(OOH)(TMC)]2+, that is further converted to the [FeIV(O)(TMC)]2+ species. Thus, the present study reports the first example of generating a mononuclear nonheme iron(IV)-oxo complex with the use of singlet oxygen, instead of triplet oxygen, and a hydrogen atom donor with relatively strong C-H bonds. Detailed mechanistic aspects, such as the detection of 1O2 emission, the quenching by [FeII(TMC)]2+, and the quantum yields, have also been discussed to provide valuable mechanistic insights into understanding nonheme iron-oxo chemistry.

Abstract
Oxygen is a molecule of utmost importance in our lives. Beside its vital role for the respiration and sustaining of organisms, oxygen is involved in numerous chemical and physical processes. Upon combination of the different forms of molecular oxygen species with various activation modes, substrates, and reaction conditions an extremely wide chemical space can be covered that enables rich applications of diverse oxygenation processes. This Review provides an instructive overview of the individual properties and reactivities of oxygen species and illustrates their importance in nature, everyday life, and in the context of chemical synthesis.

Abstract
Active pharmaceutical ingredients are the most consequential and widely employed treatment in medicine although they suffer from many systematic limitations, particularly off-target activity and toxicity. To mitigate these effects, stimuli-responsive controlled delivery and release strategies for drugs are being developed. Fueled by the field of polymer mechanochemistry, recently new molecular technologies enabled the emergence of force as an unprecedented stimulus for this purpose by using ultrasound. In this research area, termed sonopharmacology, mechanophores bearing drug molecules are incorporated within biocompatible macromolecular scaffolds as preprogrammed, latent moieties. This review presents the novelties in controlling drug activation, monitoring, and release by ultrasound, while discussing the limitations and challenges for future developments.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy is a clinically approved anticancer modality that employs a light-activated agent (photosensitizer) to generate cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS). There is therefore a growing interest for developing innovative photosensitizing agents with enhanced phototherapeutic performances. Herein, we report on a rational design synthetic procedure that converts the ultrabright benzothioxanthene imide (BTI) dye into three heavy-atom-free thionated compounds featuring close-to-unit singlet oxygen quantum yields. In contrast to the BTI, these thionated analogs display an almost fully quenched fluorescence emission, in agreement with the formation of highly populated triplet states. Indeed, the sequential thionation on the BTI scaffold induces torsion of its skeleton reducing the singlet-triplet energy gaps and enhancing the spin-orbit coupling. These potential PSs show potent cancer-cell ablation under light irradiation while remaining non-toxic under dark condition owing to a photo-cytotoxic mechanism that we believe simultaneously involves singlet oxygen and superoxide species, which could be both characterized in vitro. Our study demonstrates that this simple site-selected thionated platform is an effective strategy to convert conventional carbonyl-containing fluorophores into phototherapeutic agents for anticancer PDT.

Abstract
A series of pyrroloquinolone photosensitizers bearing different halogen substituents (Cl, Br, I) on the heterocyclic framework was studied. These structures were readily prepared through a multi-step synthetic sequence involving an oxidative protocol as an important step to access the quinolone framework. Spectroscopic characterizations and computational investigations were carried out to study the dyes before and after the oxidative step. Interestingly, the fluorescence emission was significantly reduced upon oxidation. In spite of a low photostability under UV light, the pyrroloquinolone photosensitizers proved effective to produce singlet oxygen. Higher singlet oxygen quantum yields were obtained with photosensitizers bearing halogen atoms with a higher atomic number.

Abstract
In this study, we present a slight but surprisingly successful structural modification of the previously reported heteroleptic Cu(I) photosensitizer Cubiipo ([(xantphos)Cu(biipo)]PF6; biipo = 16H-benzo-[4',5']-isoquinolino-[2',1':1,2]-imidazo-[4,5-f]-[1,10]-phenanthrolin-16-one). As a key feature, biipo bears a naphthalimide unit at the back, which is directly fused to a phenanthroline moiety to extend the conjugated π-system. This ligand was now altered to include two additional methyl groups at the 2,9-positions at the phenanthroline scaffold. Comparing the novel Cudmbiipo complex to its predecessor, ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy reveals the efficient suppression of a major deactivation pathway by stabilization of a transient triplet state. Furthermore, quantitative measurements of singlet oxygen evolution in solution confirmed that a larger fraction of the excited-state population is transferred to the photocatalytically active ligand-centered triplet 3LC state with a much longer lifetime of ∼30 μs compared to Cubiipo (2.6 μs). In addition, Cudmbiipo was compared with the well-established reference complex Cubcp ([(xantphos)Cu(bathocuproine)]PF6) in terms of its photophysical and photocatalytic properties by applying time-resolved femto- and nanosecond absorption, step-scan Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and emission spectroscopies. Superior light-harvesting properties and a greatly enhanced excited-state lifetime with respect to Cubcp enable Cudmbiipo to be more active in exemplary photocatalytic applications, i.e., in the formation of singlet oxygen and the isomerization of (E)-stilbene.

Abstract
AbstractThis paper describes a continuous multi-step synthesis in supercritical CO2. A continuous flow synthesis of 2-substituted 1,4-benzoquinones is reported, and details of the high-pressure reactors are given. This proceeds via the telescoped dearomatisation of p-substituted phenols using singlet oxygen in supercritical CO2 and an acid-mediated C–C migration. The process has a short residence time of 30 minutes, with overall yields and projected productivities of up to 83% and 9 g/day, respectively. This methodology enables a safe and efficient synthesis of 2-substituted 1,4-benzoquinones from photo-generated singlet oxygen, and cheap and readily available p-substituted phenols. The procedure has high atom efficiency, low photocatalyst loading, and substitutes potentially hazardous and corrosive reagents and solvents for molecular oxygen, CO2, and the less hazardous solid-supported acid Amberlyst-15.

Abstract
In the face of anthropogenic global warming the design and synthesis of materials, which enable energy transfer processes using sunlight as an energy source, are of high interest. Perylenediimides are a highly absorbing class of chromophores suitable for sunlight absorption and conversion. Therefore, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and coordination polymers (CPs) with incorporated organic perylene chromophores are highly interesting materials both for applied, but also fundamental, photophysical research. MOFs/CPs have the advantage of a modular adjustability of interchromophoric distances and angles, and the choice of metal nodes can be used to further tune the material towards the desired photophysical properties. In the present paper, we present a study using a reported organic perylenediimide (PDI) chromophore (H2tpdb) as a linker to be incorporated into coordination polymer and test towards applicability within the photochemical 1O2 generation. In detail, a novel zinc 2D -coordination polymer Zn(tpdb)(DMF)3 is reported, which is synthesized using a solvothermal synthesis with Zn(NO3)2 and a ditopic organic perylene linker. Both the linker and Zn-CP are fully characterized, including SC-XRD, showing a strong aggregation of tightly packed chromophores in the solid state. The photophysical properties are examined and discussed, including the observed shifts within the absorption spectra of the CP are compared to the linker in solution. These shifts are mainly attributed to the for PDIs known H-type aggregation and an additional charge transfer in the framework structure, causing a limited quantum yield of the emission. Finally, the photosensitization of triplet oxygen to singlet oxygen using 1,3-diphenylisobenzofurane (DBPF) as a trapping agent is investigated both for the free linker and the Zn-CP, showing that the perylene chromophore is an efficient photosensitizer and its activity can, in principle, be retained after its incorporation in the coordination polymer.

Abstract
Meso-Tetrakis-(3,4,5-tris{2-[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy]ethoxy}phenyl)porphyrin TEG12PH2 is reported as an 'omnisoluble' reference for singlet oxygen (1O2) generation quantum yield (ΦSO) estimation. TEG12PH2 is a highly soluble, nonionic compound possessing excellent 1O2 QY in a wide variety of common solvents, including water. TEG12PH2 was prepared on multigram scale by the 12-way O-alkylation of tetrakis(3,4,5-trihydroxyphenyl)porphyrin using 2-(2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy)ethyl 4-toluenesulfonate as a reaction solvent. The corresponding Zn(II) complex TEG12PZn was also prepared and studied. The 1O2 QYs of TEG12PH2 in the different solvents studied were found to be 0.86 (acetone), 0.59 (acetonitrile), 0.66 (chloroform), 0.85 (methanol), 0.45 (toluene) and 0.51 (water). TEG12PH2 can be considered a reliable and easy to implement omnisoluble reference compound for the estimation of the 1O2 generating activities of new materials, especially new porphyrinic compounds.

Abstract
Photoinduced chemical transformations have received in recent years a tremendous amount of attention, providing a plethora of opportunities to synthetic organic chemists. However, performing a photochemical transformation can be quite a challenge because of various issues related to the delivery of photons. These challenges have barred the widespread adoption of photochemical steps in the chemical industry. However, in the past decade, several technological innovations have led to more reproducible, selective, and scalable photoinduced reactions. Herein, we provide a comprehensive overview of these exciting technological advances, including flow chemistry, high-throughput experimentation, reactor design and scale-up, and the combination of photo- and electro-chemistry.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen (1O2) is the excited state of ground, triplet state, molecular oxygen (O2). Photosensitized 1O2 has been extensively studied as one of the reactive oxygen species (ROS), responsible for damage of cellular components (protein, DNA, lipids). On the other hand, its generation has been exploited in organic synthesis, as well as in photodynamic therapy for the treatment of various forms of cancer. The aim of this review is to highlight the versatility of 1O2, discussing the main bioorganic applications reported over the past decades, which rely on its production. After a brief introduction on the photosensitized production of 1O2, we will describe the main aspects involving the biologically relevant damage that can accompany an uncontrolled, aspecific generation of this ROS. We then discuss in more detail a series of biological applications featuring 1O2 generation, including protein and DNA labelling, cross-linking and biosensing. Finally, we will highlight the methodologies available to tailor 1O2 generation, in order to accomplish the proposed bioorganic transformations while avoiding, at the same time, collateral damage related to an untamed production of this reactive species.

Abstract
The upscaling of biphasic photochemical reactions is challenging because of the inherent constraints of liquid–gas mixing and light penetration. Using semi-permeable coaxial flow chemistry within a modular photoreactor, the photooxidation of the platform chemical furfural was scaled up to produce routinely 29 gram per day of biobased building block hydroxybutenolide, a precursor to acrylate alternatives. An easily-built, user-friendly modular photoreactor enables optimization and upscaling of flow photooxidation.![]()

Abstract
The discovery of a multiple-bond-forming process merging the singlet oxygen-mediated dearomatization of 3,4-disubstitued phenols and diastereo- and regioselective epoxidation is described. This one-pot strategy using a transition metal-free multicatalytic system comprised of rose bengal and cesium carbonate allowed the efficient formation of functionalized epoxyquinol products under mild conditions. Mechanistic investigations have been performed to shed the light on the key species involved in this transformation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) in periodontal pockets using lasers is difficult to perform in some cases because of the high cost of irradiation equipment and the narrow irradiation field. The purpose of the present study was to examine the effects of aPDT in combination with a plaque-disclosing solution and blue light-emitting diode (LED), which are used for composite resin polymerization. METHODS The reactive oxygen species generated by irradiating 0.001% RB or MB with blue light were analyzed using electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Blue-light exposure was performed at 6.92, 20.76 and 124.6 J. The microorganism to be sterilized was Porphyromonas gingivalis. After aPDT, colony-forming units (CFUs) were measured to estimate cell survival. Carbonylated protein (PC) levels were used to evaluate oxidative stress. All statistical analyses were performed with Tukey's multiple comparisons test or the unpaired t-test. RESULTS Singlet oxygen (1O2) generation was confirmed by RB+blue LED. 1O2 production was significantly greater with the blue LED irradiation of RB than that of MB (p < 0.0001). CFUs were significantly lower in the blue LED-irradiated group than in the non-LED-irradiated group (p < 0.01). The bactericidal effect increased in a time-dependent manner. aPDT increased PC levels. No morphological changes were observed in P. gingivalis. CONCLUSIONS The present results suggest that aPDT exerts bactericidal effects against P. gingivalis by increasing oxidative stress through the generation of 1O2 in cells. Periodontal disease may be treated by aPDT using the equipment available in dental offices.

Abstract
Due to the emergence of multidrug resistant bacteria, the development of new antibiotics is required. We introduce here asymmetrically modified positively charged bis(methylpyridinium) anthracenes as a novel tunable scaffold, in which the two positive charges can be placed at a defined distance and angle. Our structure-activity relationship reveals that coupling the methylpyridiniums with alkynyl linkers to the central anthracene unit yields antibacterial compounds against a wide range of bacteria, including Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Staphylococcus epidermidis. Also, different mycobacteria, such as Mycobacterium smegmatis and Mycobacterium tuberculosis, are efficiently targeted by these compounds. The antibacterial activity depends on the number of alkynyl linkers and consequently also on the distance of the positive charges in the rigid anthracene scaffold. Additionally, the formation of an anthracene endoperoxide further increases the antibacterial activity, likely due to the release of toxic singlet oxygen that converts the endoperoxide back to the antibacterial anthracene scaffold with half-lives of several hours.

Abstract
Herein, we report an efficient method for the chemical generation of 1O2 by treatment of H2O2 with AIBX, a highly water-soluble, bench-stable, recyclable hypervalent iodine(V) reagent developed by our group. The generation of 1O2 was confirmed by the following results: (1) capture of 1O2 with the sodium salt of anthracene-9,10-bis(ethanesulfonate) produced the corresponding endoperoxide and (2) TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy) produced by the oxidation of 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine with 1O2 generated using the AIBX/H2O2 system was detected by electron spin resonance spectroscopy. To illustrate the potential utility of this method for organic synthesis, we used the AIBX/H2O2 system to perform typical reactions of 1O2: [2 + 2]/[4 + 2] cycloadditions, Schenck ene reactions, and heteroatom oxidation reactions, which afforded the corresponding products in high yields. Moreover, we used the method to synthesize the antimalarial drug artemisinin. Finally, we demonstrated that AIBX could be regenerated after the reaction by means of a workup involving extraction and removal of water to obtain a precursor of AIBX, which could then be re-oxidized.

Abstract
Two zinc(ii) phthalocyanines substituted with two and four permethylated β-cyclodextrin moieties at the α positions have been synthesised and immobilised on the surface of adamantane-modified silica nanoparticles through host-guest interactions. These molecular and supramolecular systems can catalyse the photooxygenation of 1-naphthol and 2-furoic acid in organic and aqueous media with high conversion efficiency and reaction yield, and photodegradation of 2-chlorophenol in water. Having a higher photostability and recyclability, the supramolecular nanosystems are particularly promising for these photocatalytic applications.

Abstract
The solvatochromic amino-acids 4-DMNA or 4-DAPA, were separately introduced at position 147, 150 or 151 of a short p21 peptide (141-155) known to bind sliding clamp protein PCNA. The ability of these peptides, 1a-3a and 1b-3b, to act as a turn-on fluorescent sensor for PCNA was then investigated. The 4-DMNA-containing peptides (1a-3a) displayed up to a 40-fold difference in fluorescence between a polar (Tris buffer) and a hydrophobic solvent (dioxane with 5 mM 18-crown-6), while the 4-DAPA-containing peptides (1b-3b) displayed a significantly enhanced (300-fold) increase in fluorescence from Tris buffer to dioxane with 18-crown-6. SPR analysis of the peptides against PCNA revealed that the 151-substituted peptides 3a and 3b interacted specifically with PCNA, with KD values of 921 nM and 1.28 μM, respectively. Analysis of the fluorescence of these peptides in the presence of increasing concentrations of PCNA revealed a 10-fold change in fluorescence for 3a at 2.5 equivalents of PCNA, compared to only a 3.5-fold change in fluorescence for 3b. Peptide 3a is an important lead for development of a PCNA-selective turn-on fluorescent sensor for application as a cell proliferation sensor to investigate diseases such as cancer.

Abstract
The photooxygenation of 1,4-cyclohexadienes has been studied with a special focus on regio- and stereoselectivities. In all examples, only the methyl-substituted double bond undergoes an ene reaction with singlet oxygen, to afford hydroperoxides in moderate to good yields. We explain the high regioselectivities by a "large-group effect" of the adjacent quaternary stereocenter. Nitriles decrease the reactivity of singlet oxygen, presumably by quenching, but can stabilize proposed per-epoxide intermediates by polar interactions resulting in different stereoselectivities. Spiro lactams and lactones show an interesting effect on regio- and stereoselectivities of the ene reactions. Thus, singlet oxygen attacks the double bond preferentially anti to the carbonyl group, affording only one regioisomeric hydroperoxide. If the reaction occurs from the opposite face, the other regioisomer is exclusively formed by severe electrostatic repulsion in a perepoxide intermediate. We explain this unusual behavior by the fixed geometry of spiro compounds and call it a "spiro effect" in singlet oxygen ene reactions.

Abstract
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) based on peroxydisulfate (PDS) or peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation have attracted much research attention in the last decade for the degradation of recalcitrant organic contaminants. Sulfate (SO4•−) and hydroxyl (•OH) radicals are most frequently generated from catalytic PDS/PMS decomposition by thermal, base, irradiation, transition metals and carbon materials. In addition, increasingly more recent studies have reported the involvement of singlet oxygen (1O2) during PDS/PMS-based AOPs. Typically, 1O2 can be produced either along with SO4•− and •OH or discovered as the dominant reactive oxygen species (ROSs) for pollutants degradation. This paper reviews recent advances in 1O2 generation during PDS/PMS activation. First, it introduces the basic chemistry of 1O2, its oxidation properties and detection methodologies. Furthermore, it elaborates different activation strategies/techniques, including homogeneous and heterogeneous systems, and discusses the possible reaction mechanisms to give an overview of the principle of 1O2 production by activating PDS/PMS. Moreover, although 1O2 has shown promising features such as high degradation selectivity and anti-interference capability, its production pathways and mechanisms remain controversial in the present literatures. Therefore, this study identifies the research gaps and proposes future perspectives in the aspects of novel catalysts and related mechanisms.

Abstract
Photooxygenation reactions involving singlet oxygen (1O2) are utilized industrially as a mild and sustainable access to oxygenated products. Due to the usage of organic dyes as photosensitizers, these transformations can be successfully conducted using natural sunlight. Modern solar chemical reactors enable outdoor operations on the demonstration (multigram) to technical (multikilogram) scales and have subsequently been employed for the manufacturing of fine chemicals such as fragrances or biologically active compounds. This review will highlight examples of solar photooxygenations for the manufacturing of industrially relevant target compounds and will discuss current challenges and opportunities of this sustainable methodology.

Steinebrunner D, Schnurpfeil G, Thayssen J, Tapia Burgos JA, Wichmann A, Wöhrle D, Wittstock A. Comparison of the photocatalytic activity of novel hybrid photocatalysts based on phthalocyanines, subphthalocyanines and porphyrins immobilized onto nanoporous gold. RSC Adv 2021; 11:11364-11372. [PMID: 35423609 PMCID: PMC8695993 DOI: 10.1039/d1ra01331a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2021] [Accepted: 03/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
A series of different singlet oxygen photosensitizers was immobilized onto nanoporous gold powder with a mean pore size of 40 nm via copper catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition. The attachment of phthalocyanine and porphyrin derivatives was performed on the peripheral substituent of the macrocycle, whereas the subphthalocyanine derivatives were attached via the axial substituent with respect to the macrocyclic ring system. All obtained hybrid systems were studied in the photooxidation of 2,5-diphenylfuran as a chemical singlet oxygen quencher and showed increased photocatalytic activity compared to the same amount of the corresponding photosensitizer in solution due to photoinduced interactions of the plasmon resonance of the nanostructured gold support and the attached photosensitizer. The understanding of the different photophysical interactions depending on the coordination mode of the macrocycle as well as the position of the absorbance in the electromagnetic spectrum is an important point in the development towards highly active hybrid photocatalysts covering a broad absorption range within the spectrum of visible light.

New Approach in the Application of Conjugated Polymers: The Light-Activated Source of Versatile Singlet Oxygen Molecule. MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14051098. [PMID: 33652904 PMCID: PMC7956640 DOI: 10.3390/ma14051098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2021] [Revised: 02/23/2021] [Accepted: 02/23/2021] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
For many years, the research on conjugated polymers (CPs) has been mainly focused on their application in organic electronics. Recent works, however, show that due to the unique optical and photophysical properties of CPs, such as high absorption in UV–Vis or even near-infrared (NIR) region and efficient intra-/intermolecular energy transfer, which can be relatively easily optimized, CPs can be considered as an effective light-activated source of versatile and highly reactive singlet oxygen for medical or catalytic use. The aim of this short review is to present the novel possibilities that lie dormant in those exceptional polymers with the extended system of π-conjugated bonds.
