Figure 4. Photo-triggered release of BODIPY by a photoactive Janus dendrimer RH-NO2.(a) Qi description of the reaction
( b) Confocal representative images of onions consisting of RH-NO2 and RH-RhB .Onions with looser lamellae are irradiated for 2 sec with 405nm laser; after 1sec some lamellae are peeled off from the vesicles while after 60s the vesicles are completely. broken. In contrast, onions with tight lamellae are completely broken after 1sec.
consisting of RH-NO2 and RH-RhB loading BODIPY.After exposure for 5s with 405nm laser, 50-80% of BODIPY is released from these vesicles (d)Onion dendrimersomes consisting of RH-12 and RH-RhB preserve their structure after exposure for 10s with 405nm laser. (e) Dendrimersomes consisting of RH-12 and RH-RhB (red) and loading Bodipy (green) are intact after laser exposure for 10s.
