Direct monitoring of apoptotic progression is a major step forward for the early assessment of therapeutic efficacy of certain treatments and the accurate evaluation of the spread of a disease. Here, the regulatory role of glutathione (GSH) is explored as a potential biomarker for tracking apoptosis. For this purpose, a near- infrared (NIR) squaraine dye is introduced that is capable of sensing GSH in a ratiometric manner by switching its emission from NIR (690 nm) to visible region (560 nm). The favorable biocompatible attributes of the probe facilitated the real-time monitoring of apoptotic process in line with the conventional apoptotic assay. Furthermore, the robust nature of the probe was utilized for the quantitative estimation of GSH during different stages of apoptosis. Through this study, an easy and reliable method of assaying apoptosis is demonstrated, which can provide valuable insights in translational clinical research.

Four novel yellow-to red-emitting fluorophores with a 1-(2-hydroxyethyl) pyridinium core and different electron-donating terminal moieties (N-methylcarbazole, N,N-dibutylbenzenamine, N-methylpyrrole, and 2-methylfuran) were designed and facilely synthesized via the one-step Knoevenagel condensation. All these compounds (HPs) were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS. Their photophysical properties including linear absorption, one-photon excited fluorescence, two-photon absorption, and two-photon excited fluorescence, were systematically investigated in various solvents. And the density functional theory calculations were conducted to analyze the electronic structures of HPs. The two-photon absorption cross-sections (δ) values of HPs measured by the Z-scan technique were determined to be as large as 1354 (1HP-CZ), 4462 (2HP-BA), 836 (3HP-PR), and 2944 GM (4HP-FU) in DMSO. The two-photon action cross-sections (Φ × δ) values of 1HP-CZ and 2HP-BA in H2O measured by the two-photon induced fluorescence method were about 50 GM. 1HP-CZ, 3HP-PR, and 4HP-FU also exhibited good water solubility. Meanwhile, it was found that 2HP-BA exhibited notable aggregation-induced emission characteristic in DMSO/H2O mixture. The aggregate particle size distribution of 2HP-BA was measured by the dynamic light scattering method, and the aggregation characteristic of 2HP-BA was observed by the transmission electron microscopy. Besides, 2HP-BA also exhibited red emission. Then, HPs with relatively low cytotoxicity were used for one- and two-photon excited fluorescence imaging in living HepG2 cells. The results indicate that HPs are potential candidates in the bioimaging field due to their photophysical properties and biocompatibility.

Dehalogenative deuteration reactions are generally performed through metal-mediated processes. This report demonstrates a mild protocol for hydrodehalogenation and dehalogenative deuteration of aryl/heteroaryl halides (39 examples) using a reduced odd alternant hydrocarbon phenalenyl under transition metal-free conditions and has been employed successfully for the incorporation of deuterium in various biologically active compounds. The combined approach of experimental and theoretical studies revealed a single electron transfer-based mechanism.

Catalytic dehydrogenation (CD)viavisible-light photoredox catalysis provides an efficient route for the synthesis of aromatic compounds. However, access toN-aryl amines, which are widely utilized synthetic moieties,viavisible-light-induced CD remains a significant challenge, because of the difficulty in controlling the reactivity of amines under photocatalytic conditions. Here, the visible-light-induced photocatalytic synthesis ofN-aryl amines was achieved by the CD of allylic amines. The unusual strategy using C6F5I as an hydrogen-atom acceptor enables the mild and controlled CD of amines bearing various functional groups and activated C-H bonds, suppressing side-reaction of the reactiveN-aryl amine products. Thorough mechanistic studies suggest the involvement of single-electron and hydrogen-atom transfers in a well-defined order to provide a synergistic effect in the control of the reactivity. Notably, the back-electron transfer process prevents the desired product from further reacting under oxidative conditions.
