“…Functional precursors of DBMBF 2 1a,b were prepared according to the method described previously. 64,74 New dyads DBMBF 2 -BODIPY 5a,b were synthesized in two steps according to the route shown in Scheme 1 from allyl-DBMBF 2 1a,b and meso-decene-BODIPY 4 synthesized by us earlier. 76 Thus, at the first stage, the hydrosilylation reaction between allyl-DBMBF 2 1a,b and excess of 1,1,3,3,5,5-hexamethyltrisiloxane 2 in toluene using the Karstedt's platinum(0) catalyst 74,77 was utilized, and hydride siloxane derivatives of DBMBF 2 3a,b were obtained and used in the next step without purification.…”
