Abstract

A phenothiazine-based photoremovable protecting group (PRPG) for single and dual release of carboxylic acids was developed. The change in the oxidation state of the sulfur atom of the phenothiazine PRPG resulted in singlet oxygen generation, rather than photorelease. The difference in the photochemistry between oxygen-free and oxygen-functionalized phenothiazine was investigated and supported by DFT calculations.
