Click chemistry refers to selective reactions developed for grafting of bio(macro)molecules in their biological media. Caged click compounds have been employed to spatiotemporally control click reactions. Here, we survey the uncaging of photo-dibenzocyclooctyne-OH (photoDIBO-OH) to its click-chemistry active form DIBO-OH, with particular attention to its conversion timescale and efficiency. Ultraviolet pump–infrared probe experiments reveal a stepwise decarbonylation: first, carbon monoxide (C≡O) is released within 1.8 ps, and then, it converts, within 10 ps, to DIBO-OH. Completion of uncaging is achieved with an efficiency of ∼50%. A successful demonstration of two-photon uncaging of photoDIBO-OH at long wavelength (700 nm) confers enhanced in vivo compatibility and proceeds on the same timescale. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
