“…19,20 In this way, sensitive ratiometric responses toward viscosity changes can be achieved. 21 On the other hand, the above mentioned D-p-A configuration for viscosity FMRs is also one of the most important strategies for the design of two-photon excited fluorescent (TPEF) molecules, 22,23 which surpass the one photon excited ones in terms of longer excitation wavelength, deeper tissue penetration, and higher spatial resolution. 24 Herein, by combining the concepts of TICT and TPEF in a D-p-A molecular system, a porphyrin-triazatruxene dyad (TAT-ZnPor) was developed for ratiometric two-photon fluorescent sensing of intracellular viscosity (Scheme 1).…”
