1,7-Dihalogenated boron dipyrromethene dyes were successfully synthesized and substituted, thus providing an entry to the final, elusive reactivity pattern. The spectroscopic properties of 1,7-disubstituted BODIPY dyes were studied and are discussed as a function of their structure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
