Abstract Near‐infrared photosensitizers are valuable tools to improve treatment depth in photodynamic therapy (PDT). However, their low singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) generation ability, indicated by quantum yield, presents a formidable challenge for PDT. To overcome this challenge, the heptamethine cyanine was decorated with biocompatible S Scy7 and Se Secy7 atom. We observe that exhibits redshift main absorption ~840 nm an ultra‐efficient capacity. The emergence of strong intramolecular charge transfer effect between atom polymethine chain considerably narrows energy gap (0.51 eV), heavy strengthens spin–orbit coupling (1.44 cm −1 ), both which greatly improved high triplet state yield (61 %), determines . Therefore, demonstrated excellent capacity, is ~24.5‐fold indocyanine green, ~8.2‐fold IR780, ~1.3‐fold methylene blue under low‐power‐density 850 irradiation (5 mW −2 ). considerable phototoxicity toward cancer cells buried 12 mm tissue. Nanoparticles formed encapsulating within amphiphilic polymers lecithin, promising antitumor anti‐pulmonary metastatic effects, exhibiting remarkable potential advancing PDT deep tissues.

The highly oxygen-dependent nature of photodynamic therapy (PDT) limits its therapeutic efficacy against hypoxic solid tumors in clinics, which is an urgent problem to be solved. Herein, we develop oxygen-independent supramolecular agent that produces hydroxyl radical (•OH) by oxidizing water the presence intracellularly abundant pyruvic acid under oxygen-free conditions. A fluorene-substituted BODIPY was designed as electron donor and coassembled with perylene diimide acceptor form quadruple hydrogen-bonded agent. Detailed mechanism studies reveal intermolecular transfer charge separation upon light irradiation result efficient generation ion pairs. Under conditions, cationic radicals directly oxidize generate cytotoxic •OH, anionic electrons acid, realizing catalytic cycle. Thus, this exhibited superb photocytotoxicity even severe environments excellent vivo antitumor on HeLa-bearing mouse models.

Abstract Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising cancer treatment but has limitations due to its dependence on oxygen and high-power-density photoexcitation. Here, we report polymer-based organic photosensitizers (PSs) through rational PS skeleton design precise side-chain engineering generate •O 2 − •OH under oxygen-free conditions using ultralow-power 808 nm photoexcitation for tumor-specific photodynamic ablation. The designed skeletons can electron-hole pairs sensitize H O into with photoexcitation, achieving NIR-photoexcited oxygen-independent production. Further, compared commonly used alkyl side chains, glycol oligomer as the chain mitigates recombination offers more molecules around generated from hydrophobic skeletons, which yield 4-fold stronger production, thus allowing an high PDT effect. Finally, feasibility of developing activatable PSs in female mice further demonstrated irradiation 15 mW cm −2 . study not only provides insights mechanism also general guideline develop NIR PDT.
