Abstract
Sonosensitization-mediated reactive oxygen species generation associated with energy and electron transfer is an essential process of sonodynamic therapy. However, the development of sonosensitizers with both high intersystem crossing (ISC) rates and efficient carrier separation remains greatly challenging. Herein, we present a new scheme to construct a class of heterojunctions (MC-R, R = −H, −OCH3, −Br) by Zr-based metal–organic framework (NU-901) and porphyrin-based covalent organic polymers (COPs) with different substituents. In this sonocatalytic system, the type-II heterojunction based on NU-901 and COPs can effectively promote the separation of electron–hole pairs, increasing the generation of superoxide anions, while the introduction of substituents (−OCH3, −Br) can extend the conjugation of COPs by p-π binding and enhance spin–orbit coupling through heavy atom effects, which could regulate the ISC process and improve the quantum yield of singlet oxygen. Remarkably, MC-Br as a representative MC-R exhibits the best tumor inhibition efficiency in vivo.
期刊介绍:
ACS Materials Letters is a journal that publishes high-quality and urgent papers at the forefront of fundamental and applied research in the field of materials science. It aims to bridge the gap between materials and other disciplines such as chemistry, engineering, and biology. The journal encourages multidisciplinary and innovative research that addresses global challenges. Papers submitted to ACS Materials Letters should clearly demonstrate the need for rapid disclosure of key results. The journal is interested in various areas including the design, synthesis, characterization, and evaluation of emerging materials, understanding the relationships between structure, property, and performance, as well as developing materials for applications in energy, environment, biomedical, electronics, and catalysis. The journal has a 2-year impact factor of 11.4 and is dedicated to publishing transformative materials research with fast processing times. The editors and staff of ACS Materials Letters actively participate in major scientific conferences and engage closely with readers and authors. The journal also maintains an active presence on social media to provide authors with greater visibility.
