Tandem systems allowing enhanced two-photon (2P) absorption in a wavelength range permitting coupling of the primary excitation by energy transfer to an intramolecular cage known to have fragmentation properties suited to photolysis in neuroscience is demonstrated to lead to a 10-fold improvement in the 2P photolysis cross-section at experimentally compatible wavelengths.

Tandem Systems for Two-Photon Uncaging of Bioactive Molecules.
TLDR
This Minireview highlights this versatile strategy, with a discussion of different tandem 2P uncagers, relying on photoinduced electron transfer (PET), triplet-energy transfer (TT-ET), or Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) sensitization to enhance the 2P sensitivity of PPGs.
Cooperative dyads for two-photon uncaging.
TLDR
A series of dyads that combine a photolabile protecting group (PPG) 4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzyl and different bis-donor or bis-acceptor dissymmetric chromophores acting as two-photon (2P) absorbers were synthesized and improvement of the 2P uncaging sensitivity in the NIR is achieved as compared to isolated PPG.

Cooperative Veratryle and Nitroindoline Cages for Two-Photon Uncaging in the NIR.
TLDR
The interactions between the 2PA module and the caging moiety are found to promote cooperative effects on the2PA response while additional processes that enhance the uncaging efficiency are operative in well-oriented nitroindoline-derived dyads.
Quinoline-derived two-photon sensitive quadrupolar probes.
TLDR
The first quadrupolar 8-dimethylaminoquinoline-derived photosensitive probes underwent photolysis under UV and NIR irradiation conditions, showing Qu = 9.3% and 6.6% quantum yields and δu = 0.07 GM and 0.40 GM uncaging cross-sections, respectively.
Quinoline-Derived Two-Photon Sensitive Quadrupolar Probes.
TLDR
Quadrupolar probes derived from 8-dimethylamino-quinoline having a pegylated fluorene core were prepared and studied and Compound 1 a was identified as the most efficient probe by UV activation that showed sequential release of acetic acid as a model.
