@article { , title = {Generation of triplet excited states via photoinduced electron transfer in meso-anthra-BODIPY: fluorogenic response toward singlet oxygen in solution and in vitro}, abstract = {© 2017 American Chemical Society. Heavy atom-free BODIPY-anthracene dyads (BADs) generate locally excited triplet states by way of photoinduced electron transfer (PeT), followed by recombination of the resulting charge-separated states (CSS). Subsequent quenching of the triplet states by molecular oxygen produces singlet oxygen ( 1 O2), which reacts with the anthracene moiety yielding highly fluorescent species. The steric demand of the alkyl substituents in the BODIPY subunit defines the site of 1 O 2 addition. Novel bis- and tetraepoxides and bicyclic acetal products, arising from rearrangements of anthracene endoperoxides were isolated and characterized. 1 O 2 generation by BADs in living cells enables visualization of the dyads distribution, promising new imaging applications.}, doi = {10.1021/jacs.7b00551}, eissn = {1520-5126}, issn = {0002-7863}, issue = {18}, journal = {Journal of the American Chemical Society}, pages = {6282-6285}, publicationstatus = {Published}, publisher = {American Chemical Society}, url = {https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/451013}, volume = {139}, keyword = {Specialist Research - Other, Colloid and Surface Chemistry, Biochemistry, General Chemistry, Catalysis}, year = {2017}, author = {Filatov, Mikhail A. and Karuthedath, Safakath and Polestshuk, Pavel M. and Savoie, Huguette and Flanagan, Keith J. and Sy, Cindy and Sitte, Elisabeth and Telitchko, Maxime and Laquai, Frédéric and Boyle, Ross W. and Senge, Mathias O.} }
