In this work, we have developed a rhodamine dye based water-soluble, mitochondria-indicating photocage, which gets activated in the mitochondria producing a fluorescent signal and on-demand releases the caged anticancer drug, chlorambucil, in the cancer cells selectively upon irradiation of green light.
