The present invention relates to the field of singlet oxygen technologies, and particularly to a singlet oxygen capturing or releasing material, and a preparation method and use thereof.
Singlet oxygen (1O2) is molecular oxygen in the excited state, which plays an important role in reactive oxygen species and is widely used in organic synthesis, photodynamic therapy and other fields (Y. Y. Liu, A. J. Howarth, J. T. Hupp, O. K. Farha, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2015, 54, 9001). 1O2 has a short life (half-life: 0.03 ms-0.18 ms) (M. L. Liu, Y. C. Chen, Y. Guo, H. Yuan, T. X. Cui, S. K. Yao, S. X. Jin, H. H. Fan, C. J. Wang, R. Xie, W. J. He, Z. J. Guo, Nat. Commun. 2022, 13, 2179), so it is particularly important to capture and release 1O2 under controllable conditions. The most commonly used method for producing 1O2 is that a photosensitizer promotes the energy transfer from excited triplet O2(3O2) to and formation of 1O2 under light irradiation (R. W. Redmond, J. N. Gamlin, Photochem. Photobio. 1999, 70, 391). The commonly used photosensitizers include organic dyes such as methylene blue and rose red. Generally, such organic dyes tend to aggregate at a high concentration, and fade under long-term light irradiation, leading to a decreased sensitizing ability. In recent years, anthracene or anthracene ring in its derivatives is reacted with a dienophile molecule through [4+2] cycloaddition, also called Diels-Alder reaction (V. N. Huynh, M. Leitner, A. Bhattacharyya, L. Uhlstein, P. Kreitmeier, P. Sakrausky, J. Rehbein, O. Reiser, Commun. Chem., 2020, 3, 158). Singlet oxygen is a special dienophile molecule, which can react with anthracene and its derivatives to form a corresponding endoperoxide. The endoperoxide can react reversibly when irradiated by ultraviolet rays or heated to release singlet oxygen. So far, most photo-oxidation products of anthracene and its derivatives need to be heated or irradiated for more than several hours before they can undergo a reversible reaction to release 1O2 (H. W. Lai, J. Y. Yan, S. Liu, Q. Z. Yang, F. Y. Xing, P. Xiao, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2020, 59, 10431). Currently, the photo-oxidation process of anthryl compounds is mainly carried out in solution under ultraviolet light. The reaction is largely limited to organic substances, and covalent organic polymers and so on. There are few examples of coordination polymers (CPs) in solid that can effectively capture and release 1O2.
CPs are a crystalline material formed by the connection of a metal node and an organic ligand through a coordination bond, which have attracted more and more attention. They are widely used in gas storage and separation, chemical and biological sensing, catalysis and many other fields (W. Fudickar, T. Linker, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 15071; C. Mongin, A. M. Ardoy, R. Mereau, D. M. Bassani, B. Bibal, Chem. Sci. 2020, 11, 1478). The use of an anthryl compound with excellent luminescence and photoresponsibility as an organic ligand to assemble CPs with rich topological structures may open up a new way for Cps materials to capture and release 1O2 efficiently and quickly. Therefore, it is of great significance to design and synthesize a coordination polymer containing an anthracene ligand, and to greatly improve the yield of singlet oxygen in a green, clean and efficient way.
To this end, the technical problems to be solved in the present invention are to overcome those such as low singlet oxygen capturing or releasing efficiency of materials, complicated synthesis method and the like in the prior art.
