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.
