Synthesis of heavy-atom-free thienoisoindigo dye as near-infrared photosensitizer for type I photodynamic therapy and photoacoustic imaging
{{output}}
Thienoisoindigo (TIIG) has been extensively employed as promising building block of near-infrared (NIR) dyes and organic semiconductor materials. Herein, heavy-atom-free TIIG-based NIR dye TIIGTPA is reported as photosensitizer for combinational photodynamic a... ...
