An organelle-selective vision provides insights into the physiological response of plants and crops to environmental stresses in sustainable agriculture ecosystems. Biological applications often require two-photon excited fluorophores with low phototoxicity, high brightness, deep penetration, and tuneable cell entry. We obtained three aniline-based squaraines (SQs) tuned from hydrophobic to hydrophilic characteristics by modifying terminal pendant groups and substituents, and investigated their steady-state absorption and far-red-emitting fluorescence properties. The SQs exhibited two-photon absorption (2PA) ranging from 750 to 870 nm within the first biological spectral window; their structure-property relationships, corresponding to the 2PA cross sections (δ2PA), and structure differences were demonstrated. The maximum δ2PA value was ∼1220 GM at 800 nm for hydrophilic SQ3. Distinct biological staining efficiency and selective SQ bioimaging were evaluated utilizing the onion epidermal cell model. Contrary to the hydrophobic SQ1 results in the onion epidermal cell wall, amphiphilic SQ2 tagged the vacuole and nucleus and SQ3 tagged the vacuole. Distinguishable staining profiles in the roots and leaves were achieved. We believe that this study is the first to demonstrate distinct visualisation efficiency induced by the structure differences of two-photon excited SQs. Our results can help establish the versatile roles of novel near-infrared-emitting SQs in biological applications.
