“…24 BF 2 -chelated dipyrromethenes have received considerable interest from the scientific community as a building component for artificial photosynthetic systems, lightharvesting arrays, fluorescent switches, tunable laser dyes, molecular probes and many more uses. [25][26][27][28][29][30] BODIPY is an electron-deficient (acceptor) molecule; therefore, incorporating an electron-donating (donor) group induces a donor-acceptor interaction in the molecular system. In 1968, Treibs and Kreuzer synthesized BODIPY, which exhibits pyrrole, azafulvene and diazaborinine-type rings in the p-conjugated system.…”
