AB  - An efficient visible light-triggered nitric oxide (NO) releasing fluorescent molecule is designed and synthesized by coupling 2,6-dimethyl nitrobenzene moiety at the peri-position of 1, 8-naphthalimide through an alkene bond. The NO-releasing ability is investigated in details using various spectroscopic techniques, and the photoproduct was also characterized. Further, the photo-generated NO has been employed to examine the effect of photoreceptor-mediated NO uptake on plant root growth regulation.
