NIR-II fluorophores have shown great promise for biomedical applications with superior in vivo optical properties. To date, few small-molecule NIR-II fluorophores have been discovered with donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) or symmetrical structures, and upconversion-mitochondria-targeted NIR-II dyes have not been reported. Herein, we report development of D-A type thiopyrylium-based NIR-II fluorophores with frequency upconversion luminescence (FUCL) at ~580 nm upon excitation at ~850 nm. H4-PEG-PT can not only quickly and effectively image mitochondria in live or fixed osteosarcoma cells with subcellular resolution at 1 nM, but also efficiently convert optical energy into heat, achieving mitochondria-targeted photothermal cancer therapy without ROS effects. H4-PEG-PT has been further evaluated in vivo and exhibited strong tumor uptake, specific NIR-II signals with high spatial and temporal resolution, and remarkable NIR-II image-guided photothermal therapy. This report presents the first D-A type thiopyrylium NIR-II theranostics for synchronous upconversion-mitochondria-targeted cell imaging, in vivo NIR-II osteosarcoma imaging and excellent photothermal efficiency.

C2-Symmetric pyrrolidine-based tetraamine, available from commercially starting materials, showed good catalytic activity for asymmetric Michael additions of ketones to nitroalkenes especially to chalcones. The reactions proceeded to give the corresponding products in good yields and in a highly selective manner.

The simple reaction of chalcones with cyclopentanone in the presence of barium hydroxide furnished complex domino products of the types 4 and 5 along with 1,5-diketones 3. Mechanistic considerations reveal that the bicyclic alcohol 4 was formed by sequent
