Abstract

Second near‐infrared (NIR‐II) window type‐I photosensitizers have intrinsic advantages in photodynamic/photothermal therapy (PDT/PTT) of some malignant tumors with deep infiltration, large size, complicated location, and low possibility of surgery/radiotherapy. Herein, three chalcogen‐element‐based donor–acceptor‐type semiconducting polymers (poly[2,2″‐((E)‐4,4″‐bis(2‐octyldodecyl)‐[6,6″‐bithieno[3,2‐b]pyrrolylidene]‐5,5″(4 H,4″H)‐dione)‐alt‐2,5‐(thiophene)] (PTS), poly[2,2″‐((E)‐4,4″‐bis(2‐octyldodecyl)‐[6,6″‐bithieno[3,2‐b]pyrrolylidene]‐5,5″(4 H,4″H)‐dione)‐alt‐2,5‐(selenophene)] (PTSe), and poly[2,2″‐((E)‐4,4″‐bis(2‐octyldodecyl)‐[6,6″‐bithieno[3,2‐b]pyrrolylidene]‐5,5″(4 H,4′H)‐dione)‐alt‐2,5‐(tellurophene)] (PTTe)) are synthesized and fully characterized, demonstrating strong absorption in the NIR‐II region. Upon adjusting the chalcogen elements, the intramolecular charge‐transfer characteristics and the heavy‐atom effect are tuned to enhance the intersystem crossing rate, improving the photodynamic effect. Moreover, the energy levels and Gibbs free energies are tuned to facilitate the type‐I photodynamic process. As a result, PTTe nanoparticles (NPs) produce superoxide anion radicals (O 2•−) more efficiently and demonstrate higher photothermal conversion efficiency than PTS and PTSe NPs upon NIR‐II (1064 nm) laser irradiation, exhibiting unprecedented NIR‐II type‐I PDT/PTT performance in vitro and in vivo. This work provides ideas for achieving high‐performance NIR‐II type‐I PDT/PTT semiconducting polymers for hypoxic oncotherapy.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
