Abstract
HNO is a highly reactive molecule that shows promise in treating heart failure. Molecules that rapidly release HNO with precise spatial and temporal control are needed to investigate the biology of this signaling molecule. (Hydroxynaphthalen-2-yl)methyl-photocaged N-hydroxysulfonamides are a new class of photoactive HNO generators. Recently, it was shown that a (6-hydroxynaphthalen-2-yl)methyl (6,2-HNM)-photocaged derivative of N-hydroxysulfonamide incorporating the trifluoromethanesulfonamidoxy group (1) quantitatively generates HNO. Mechanistic studies have now been carried out on this system and reveal that the ground state protonation state plays a key role in whether concerted heterolytic C-O/N-S bond cleavage to release HNO occurs versus undesired O-N bond cleavage. N-Deprotonation of 1 can be achieved by adding an aqueous buffer or a carboxylate salt to an aprotic solvent. Evidence is presented for C-O/N-S bond heterolysis occurring directly from the singlet excited state of the N-deprotonated parent molecule on the picosecond time scale, using femtosecond time-resolved transient absorption spectroscopy, to give a carbocation and 1NO-. This is consistent with the observation of significant fluorescence quenching when HNO is generated. The carbocation intermediate reacts rapidly with nucleophiles including water, MeOH, or even (H)NO in the absence of a molecule that reacts rapidly with (H)NO to give an oxime.

Abstract
The design and synthesis of a photoactivatable HNO donor incorporating the (6-hydroxynaphthalen-2-yl)methyl (6,2-HNM) photocage coupled to the trifluoromethanesulfonamidoxy analogue of the well-established HNO generator Piloty's acid is described. The photoactive HNO donor stoichiometrically generates HNO (∼98%) at neutral pH conditions, and evidence for concerted C-O and N-S bond cleavage was obtained. The methanesulfonamidoxy analogue primarily undergoes undesired N-O bond cleavage.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen is a potent agent for the selective killing of a wide range of harmful cells; however, current delivery methods pose significant obstacles to its widespread use as a treatment agent. Limitations include the need for photosensitizer proximity to tissue because of the short (3.5 μs) lifetime of singlet oxygen in contact with water; the strong optical absorption of the photosensitizer, which limits the penetration depth; and hypoxic environments that restrict the concentration of available oxygen. In this article, we describe a novel superhydrophobic singlet oxygen delivery device for the selective inactivation of bacterial biofilms. The device addresses the current limitations by: immobilizing photosensitizer molecules onto inert silica particles; embedding the photosensitizer-containing particles into the plastron (i.e. the fluid-free space within a superhydrophobic surface between the solid substrate and fluid layer); distributing the particles along an optically transparent substrate such that they can be uniformly illuminated; enabling the penetration of oxygen via the contiguous vapor space defined by the plastron; and stabilizing the superhydrophobic state while avoiding the direct contact of the sensitizer to biomaterials. In this way, singlet oxygen generated on the sensitizer-containing particles can diffuse across the plastron and kill bacteria even deep within the hypoxic periodontal pockets. For the first time, we demonstrate complete biofilm inactivation (>5 log killing) of Porphyromonas gingivalis, a bacterium implicated in periodontal disease using the superhydrophobic singlet oxygen delivery device. The biofilms were cultured on hydroxyapatite disks and exposed to active and control surfaces to assess the killing efficiency as monitored by colony counting and confocal microscopy. Two sensitizer particle types, a silicon phthalocyanine sol-gel and a chlorin e6 derivative covalently bound to fluorinated silica, were evaluated; the biofilm killing efficiency was found to correlate with the amount of singlet oxygen detected in separate trapping studies. Finally, we discuss the applications of such devices in the treatment of periodontitis.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a gas that plays various roles in physiological signal transduction, for example, in vasodilation, neural transmission, and biodefence. Recently, other gaseous signal mediators such as carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) have also been found to have important biological activities. Since experimental studies with gaseous mediators are difficult, chemicals that enable controlled release of these gases are indispensable. We have developed a range of photocontrollable releasers that generate NO, H2S, and related species with fine spatiotemporal control, and we have also employed these caged compounds in various applications. This paper briefly reviews our work on photocontrollable NO, H2S, and HNO releasers, and presents some typical applications illustrating the suitability of our compounds for controlled release of these biologically active species in cellular and tissue systems. These compounds also appear to have potential for future therapeutic applications.

Abstract
We have investigated the reversible hetero-Diels-Alder reaction of 1,2-oxazines derived from a peralkylcyclopentadiene and a series of nitrosocarbonyl dienophiles. The nature of the dienophile was found to impart broad tunability to the dynamic character of the oxazine adducts. The reversibility was also observed in polymeric systems. The fidelity of the reaction and tunable sensitivity toward elevated temperature and water signify potential applications in the development of dynamic covalent materials or delivery systems for small molecule payloads.

Abstract
A positive myocardial inotropic effect achieved using HNO/NO(-) , compared with NO⋅, triggered attempts to explore novel nitroxyl donors for use in clinical applications in vascular and myocardial pharmacology. To develop M-NO complexes for nitroxyl chemistry and biology, modulation of direct nitroxyl-transfer reactivity of dinitrosyl iron complexes (DNICs) is investigated in this study using a Fe(III) -porphyrin complex and proteins as a specific probe. Stable dinuclear {Fe(NO)2 }(9) DNIC [Fe(μ-(Me) Pyr)(NO)2 ]2 was discovered as a potent nitroxyl donor for nitroxylation of Fe(III) -heme centers through an associative mechanism. Beyond the efficient nitroxyl transfer, transformation of DNICs into a chemical biology probe for nitroxyl and for pharmaceutical applications demands further efforts using in vitro/in vivo studies.

Abstract
Nitroxyl (HNO) is a small molecule with various pharmacological effects, including cardioprotective action. It is thought to serve as a modulator of various biochemical pathways. But, it is difficult to apply HNO directly for biological experiments or therapeutic treatment because it is highly reactive, readily dimerizing or reacting with biological targets under ambient conditions. Therefore, HNO donor molecules that release HNO under physiological conditions, especially those that allow precisely controllable release, would be useful to study the activities of HNO at the cellular level. This short review focuses on recently developed photocontrollable HNO-releasing compounds, which are expected to be suitable for achieving site-specific and temporally controlled HNO release in biomedical investigations. An illustrative application for the study of HNO-mediated upregulation of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in A549 cells is described.
