The formation of reactive oxygen species due to irradiation by a visible light of the polythiophene deposited in ZSM-5 zeolite channels in aqueous medium has been studied. Polymerization of thiophene was carried out in zeolite channels after the ion-exchange reaction of Na+ for Fe3+. By means of EPR spectroscopy, the temporarily generated 1O2 in irradiated aqueous medium was proved. The formation of O2-• was confirmed by the reduction of Fe3+-cytochrome c. Irradiation led to the water reduction to hydrogen.

Two novel isosteric conjugates of guanidiniocarbonyl-pyrrole and 6-bromo-TO (thiazole orange) were prepared, differing only in linker connectivity to cyanine (benzothiazole nitrogen vs. quinoline nitrogen). The quinoline analog was significantly more susceptible to aggregation in an aqueous medium, which resulted in induced circular dichroism (ICD; λ = 450–550 nm) recognition between A-T(U) and G-C basepair containing polynucleotides. The benzothiazole-isostere showed pronounced (four-fold) fluorimetric selectivity toward ds-RNA in comparison to any ds-DNA, at variance to its quinoline-analogue fluorescence being weakly selective to GC-DNA. Preliminary screening on human tumor and normal lung cell lines showed that both dyes very efficiently enter living cells and accumulate in mitochondria, causing moderate cytotoxic effects, and thus could be considered as lead compounds toward novel theragnostic mitochondrial dyes.
