Abstract By combining advantages of two series of lanthanide(III)/zinc(II) metallacrowns (MCs) assembled using pyrazine‐ (pyzHA2−) and quinoxaline‐ (quinoHA2−) hydroximate building blocks ligands, we created here water‐soluble mixed‐ligand MCs with extended absorption to the visible range. The YbIIIanalogue demonstrated improved photophysical properties in the near‐infrared (NIR) range in cell culture media, facilitating its application for NIR optical imaging in living HeLa cells.
