Synthesis of BODIPY Molecules Starting from α,β-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds
Abstract
In recent years, fluorescent dyestuffs are receiving a great deal of interest due to their potential use in many application fields. 4,4-Difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) dyestuffs are one of these family of compounds having the mentioned properties and due to their high quantum yield, high solubility, and the possibility of obtaining several functional materials due to the presence of fluorophore groups, they have been a popular topic to study. Because of different photochemical properties of these groups having boron atoms, BODIPY dyestuffs have been on constant use in areas like chemosensors, energy transfer cassettes, solar cells, photodynamic therapy, laser dyes, and biological labelling. In this study, a BODIPY-type molecule was syntheszed from an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound and the product was characterized with fluorescence and 1H-NMR methods.
