Abstract
3-Hydroxymethyl-2-aminonaphthalene photocage (photoremovable protecting group) 2 was synthesized and transformed to different ethers and esters to investigate the applicability to decage alcohols and carboxylic acids, respectively. The photoelimination of carboxylic acids takes place relatively efficiently (ΦR = 0.11) upon excitation with near-visible light, contrary to the elimination of alcohols. The scope of the decaging of both alcohols and esters was demonstrated on several examples, including aliphatic and aromatic substrates, carbohydrates, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The photophysical properties of the photocage and its models, methyl ether 4a and acetyl ester 5a, were investigated. The fluorescence quantum yields (Φf = 0.40-0.002) were found to be reversely proportional to the efficiency of elimination of OH, alcohols, or carboxylic acids. The decaging photochemical reaction mechanism was investigated experimentally by transient absorption techniques with time scales from femtoseconds to seconds and computationally on the TD-DFT level of theory. The photoelimination of carboxylates takes place directly in the singlet excited state by a homolytic cleavage producing a radical pair within 1 ns. The subsequent electron transfer gives rise to aminonaphthalene carbocation and the carboxylate. A wide scope of substrates that can be decaged relatively efficiently with near-visible light and the chromo-orthogonal compatibility of aminonaphthalene and aniline derivatives render these photocages potentially applicable in organic synthesis or biology.

Abstract
Targeted release of bioactive molecules for therapeutic purposes is a key area in the biomedical field that is growing quickly, where bioactive molecules are released passively or actively from drug delivery systems (DDSs) or bioactive donors. In the past decade, researchers have identified light as one of the prime stimuli that can implement the efficient spatiotemporally targeted delivery of drugs or gaseous molecules with minimal cytotoxicity and a real-time monitoring ability. This perspective emphasizes recent advances in the photophysical properties of ESIPT- (excited-state intramolecular proton transfer), AIE- (aggregation-induced emission), and AIE + ESIPT-attributed light-activated delivery systems or donors. The three major sections of this perspective describe the distinctive features of DDSs and donors concerning their design, synthesis, photophysical and photochemical properties, and in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrating their relevance as carrier molecules for releasing cancer drugs and gaseous molecules in the biological system.

Abstract
Gasotransmitters like nitric oxide, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide with unique pleiotropic pharmacological effects in mammals are an emerging therapeutic modality for different human diseases including cancer, infection, ischemia-reperfusion injuries, and inflammation; however, their clinical translation is hampered by the lack of a reliable delivery form, which delivers such gasotransmitters to the action site with precisely controlled dosage. The external stimuli-responsive prodrug strategy has shown tremendous potential in developing gasotransmitter prodrugs, which affords precise temporospatial control and better dose control compared with endogenous stimuli-sensitive prodrugs. The promising external stimuli employed for gasotransmitter activation range from photo, ultrasound, and bioorthogonal click chemistry to exogenous enzymes. Herein, we highlight the recent development of external stimuli-mediated decaging chemistry for the temporospatial delivery of gasotransmitters including nitric oxide, carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide, and discuss the pros and cons of different designs.

Abstract
This review focuses on utilization of the excited state meta effect (ESME) in the development of photolabile protecting groups (PPGs). Structurally simple ESME-based PPGs for release of various functional groups (such as carbonyl, hydroxyl, carboxyl, amino, and thiol groups) are discussed. Examples that demonstrate the appealing advantages of these new PPGs are provided, including their efficient release of "poor" leaving groups such as hydroxyl or amino group directly instead of in their respective carbonate or carbamate form. Applications of these PPGs in synthesis, release of biologically important molecules, materials science, and biomedical engineering are also described.

Abstract
Following the discovery of nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) has been identified as the third gasotransmitter in humans. Increasing evidence have shown that H2 S is of preventive or therapeutic effects on diverse pathological complications. As a consequence, it is of great significance to develop suitable approaches of H2 S-based therapeutics for biomedical applications. H2 S-releasing agents (H2 S donors) play important roles in exploring and understanding the physiological functions of H2 S. More importantly, accumulating studies have validated the theranostic potential of H2 S donors in extensive repertoires of in vitro and in vivo disease models. Thus, it is imperative to summarize and update the literatures in this field. In this review, first, the background of H2 S on its chemical and biological aspects is concisely introduced. Second, the studies regarding the H2 S-releasing compounds are categorized and described, and accordingly, their H2 S-donating mechanisms, biological applications, and therapeutic values are also comprehensively delineated and discussed. Necessary comparisons between related H2 S donors are presented, and the drawbacks of many typical H2 S donors are analyzed and revealed. Finally, several critical challenges encountered in the development of multifunctional H2 S donors are discussed, and the direction of their future development as well as their biomedical applications is proposed. We expect that this review will reach extensive audiences across multiple disciplines and promote the innovation of H2 S biomedicine.

Abstract
Photoactivatable (alternatively, photoremovable, photoreleasable, or photocleavable) protecting groups (PPGs), also known as caged or photocaged compounds, are used to enable non-invasive spatiotemporal photochemical control over the release of species of interest. Recent years have seen the development of PPGs activatable by biologically and chemically benign visible and near-infrared (NIR) light. These long-wavelength-absorbing moieties expand the applicability of this powerful method and its accessibility to non-specialist users. This review comprehensively covers organic and transition metal-containing photoactivatable compounds (complexes) that absorb in the visible- and NIR-range to release various leaving groups and gasotransmitters (carbon monoxide, nitric oxide, and hydrogen sulfide). The text also covers visible- and NIR-light-induced photosensitized release using molecular sensitizers, quantum dots, and upconversion and second-harmonic nanoparticles, as well as release via photodynamic (photooxygenation by singlet oxygen) and photothermal effects. Release from photoactivatable polymers, micelles, vesicles, and photoswitches, along with the related emerging field of photopharmacology, is discussed at the end of the review.

Abstract
As an important gasotransmitter, hydrogen sulfide having multiple biological roles cannot be easily probed in cells. In this study, a light controllable H2S donor, Nap-Sul-ONB, derived from naphthalimide was developed. Under the irradiation of 365 nm light, a readily controlled stimulus, the donor could release COS to form H2S and exhibit turn on fluorescence to indicate the release of payload and its cellular location. Besides, the ROS scavenging ability and cell protective effect of Nap-Sul-ONB against endogenous and exogenous ROS were studied. The results showed that upon 365 nm light irradiation, Nap-Sul-ONB could reduce the cellular ROS level and increase the survival rate of PMA-treated cells.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) are industrial toxins or pollutants; however, both are produced endogenously and have important biological roles in most mammalian tissues. The recognition that these gasotransmitters have a role in physiological and pathophysiological processes has presented opportunities to harness their intracellular effects either through inhibition of their production; or more commonly, through inducing their levels and or delivering them by various modalities. In this review article, we have focused on an array of NO and H2S donors, their hybrids with other established classes of drugs, and the various engineered delivery platforms such a fibers, polymers, nanoparticles, hydrogels, and others. In each case, we have reviewed the rationale for their development.
