Abstract

In this work, we demonstrate bioorthogonal control of the phosphorescence and singlet oxygen photosensitisation properties of new iridium(III) tetrazine complexes by different reaction partners; the system was exploited for organelle-specific staining and modulated photocytotoxic activity applications.
