Easily accessible green-light activatable (>500 nm) photocages based on red-shifted, π-extended coumarin scaffolds are developed with uncaging efficiencies similar to those of recently introduced BODIPY derivatives. The photocages possess increased aqueous solubility, high absorption coefficients within the 450–600 nm range, and exceptionally high two-photon cross sections.
