Molecular demultiplexer as a terminator automaton

Molecular logic gates are expected to play an important role on the way to information processing therapeutic agents, especially considering the wide variety of physical and chemical responses that they can elicit in response to the inputs applied. Here, we show that a 1:2 demultiplexer based on a Zn2+-terpyridine-Bodipy conjugate with a quenched fluorescent emission, is efficient in photosensitized singlet oxygen generation as inferred from...
