Abstract
Quantum chemistry simulations offer a cost-effective way to computationally design BODIPY photosensitizers. However, accurate predictions of excitation energies pose a challenge for time-dependent density functional theory and equation-of-motion coupled-cluster singles and doubles methods. By contrast, reliable predictions can be achieved by multireference quantum chemistry methods; unfortunately, their computational cost increases exponentially with the number of electrons. Alternatively, quantum computing holds potential for an exact simulation of the photophysical properties in a computationally more efficient way. Herein, we introduce the state-specific ΔUCCSD-VQE (unitary coupled-cluster singles and doubles-variational quantum eigensolver) and ΔADAPT-VQE methods in which the electronically excited state is calculated via a non-Aufbau configuration. We show for six BODIPY derivatives that the proposed methods predict accurate excitation energies that are in good agreement with those from experiments. Due to its performance and simplicity, we believe that ΔADAPT will become a useful approach for the simulation of BODIPY photosensitizers on near-term quantum devices.

Abstract
A series of Ru(II)-acetylide complexes (Ru1, Ru2, and Ru1m) with alkynyl-functionalized borondipyrromethene (BODIPY) conjugates were designed by varying the position of the linker that connects the BODIPY unit to the Ru(II) metal center through acetylide linkage at either the 2-(Ru1) and 2,6-(Ru2) or the meso-phenyl (Ru1m) position of the BODIPY scaffold. The Ru(II) organometallic complexes were characterized by various spectroscopic methods, including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, infrared (IR) spectroscopy, CHN, and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) analyses. The Ru(II)-BODIPY conjugates exhibit fascinating electrochemical and photophysical properties. All BODIPY-Ru(II) complexes exhibit strong absorption (εmax = 29,000-72,000 M-1 cm-1) in the visible region (λmax = 502-709 nm). Fluorescence is almost quenched for Ru1 and Ru2, whereas Ru1m shows the residual fluorescence of the corresponding BODIPY core at 517 nm. The application of the BODIPY-Ru(II) dyads as nonporphyrin-based triplet photosensitizers was explored by a method involving the singlet oxygen (1O2)-mediated photo-oxidation of diphenylisobenzofuran. Effective π-conjugation between the BODIPY chromophore and Ru(II) center in the case of Ru1 and Ru2 was found to be necessary to improve intersystem crossing (ISC) and hence the 1O2-sensitizing ability. In addition, electrochemical studies indicate electronic interplay between the metal center and the redox-active BODIPY in the BODIPY-Ru(II) dyads.

Abstract
Donor-acceptor dyads based on BODIPYs have been recently employed to enhance the formation of triplet excited states with the process of spin-orbit charge transfer intersystem crossing (SOCT-ISC) which does not require introduction of transition metals or other heavy atoms into the molecule. In this work we compare two donor-acceptor dyads based on meso-naphthalenyl BODIPY by combining experimental and computational investigations. The photophysical and electrochemical characterization reveals a significant effect of alkylation of the BODIPY core, disfavoring the SOCT-ISC mechanism for the ethylated BODIPY dyad. This is complemented with a computational investigation carried out to rationalize the influence of ethyl substituents and solvent effects on the electronic structure and efficiency of triplet state population via charge recombination (CR) from the photoinduced electron transfer (PeT) generated charge-transfer (CT) state. Time dependent-density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations including solvent effects and spin-orbit coupling (SOC) calculations uncover the combined role played by solvent and alkyl substitution on the lateral positions of BODIPY.

Abstract
Boron-based dipyrrin chromophores (BODIPY) have found widespread application over the last twenty years in fields as diverse as medicine and materials. Thus, several efforts have been placed to exchange boron with other elements, with the aim of developing materials with complementary luminescent properties. However, despite these attempts, the incorporation of other main-group elements in dipyrrin scaffolds remains still rare. We have successfully synthesized and characterized novel chromophores based on antimony and bismuth, SBDIPY and BIDIPY. Solution stabilities have been investigated by VT-UV/vis spectroscopy and the fluorescence emission studied and supported by computational analysis. We were also able to isolate the first direct analogue of BODIPY containing fluoride handles, disclosing preliminary luminescent features.

Abstract
The lowest bright electronic excitations of seven model linear cyanines (CN3-CN15) using 28 double-hybrid (DH) density functionals are benchmarked against accurate and recent CC3 results. Some of these DH functionals are recently designed specifically for excited electronic state calculations. In addition, CIS, CIS(D), SCS-CIS(D), and SOS-CIS(D) were also tested. Four different basis sets were used for the vertical electronic excitation calculations: cc-pVDZ, aug-cc-pVDZ, cc-pVTZ, and aug-cc-pVTZ basis. Augmented basis sets (e.g. aug-cc-pVDZ and aug-cc-pVTZ) are found to be required for accurate and consistent results using DH functionals. The DH functionals tested in this work are classified into four main groups: global double-hybrids (GDH), range-separated double-hybrids (RSDH), spin-component and spin-opposite scaling global double-hybrids (SCS/SOS-GDH), and spin-component and spin-opposite scaling range-separated double-hybrids (SCS/SOS-RSDH). Within these groups, the SCS/SOS-RSDH group of functionals is found to provide the lowest mean absolute error (MAE) values (in the range 0.020-0.148 eV) in comparison with the GDH group (0.195-0.441 eV), the RSDH group (0.186-0.511 eV), and the SCS/SOS-GDH group (0.079-0.461 eV). Of all the DH functionals and ab initio methods investigated in the present contribution, the following functionals are found to be the most accurate and consistent: SCS-ωB2GPPLYP (MAE = 0.036 eV), SOS-ωB2GPPLYP (MAE = 0.020 eV), SOS-ωB88PP86 (MAE = 0.035 eV), and SOS-ωPBEPP86 (MAE = 0.037 eV). In general, the ab initio methods tested here show mediocre performance as compared to many DH functionals.

Abstract
A series of four photoluminescent Al and In complexes were synthesised using an environmentally-benign mechanosynthesis strategy. Sterically crowded 3,5-di-tert-butyl functionalised salophen and salen ligands and their respective complexes have been synthesised in the solid-state and fully characterised. Subsequent photophysics and electrochemistry studies of the resulting complexes suggest that these new group 13 complexes can be viable alternatives to traditional photoluminescent complexes based on expensive and low abundant noble metals. The herein-reported strategy avoids the use of organic solvents and provides a process with low environmental impact and enhanced energy efficiency.

Abstract
Dual-action drugs are occupying an important place in the scientific landscape of cancer research owing to the possibility to combine different therapeutic strategies into a single molecule. In the present work, the behavior of two BODIPY-appended monofunctional Pt(II) complexes, one mononuclear and one binuclear, recently synthesized and tested for their cytotoxicity have been explored both in the dark and under light irradiation. Quantum mechanical DFT calculations have been used to carry out the exploration of the key steps, aquation and guanine attack, of the mechanism of action of Pt(II) complexes in the dark. Due to the presence of the BODIPY chromophore and the potential capability of the two investigated complexes to work as photosensitizers in PDT, time dependent DFT has been employed to calculate their photophysical properties and to inspect how the sensitizing properties of BODIPY are affected by the presence of the platinum "heavy atom". Furthermore, also the eventual influence on of the photophysical properties due to the displacement of chlorido ligands by water and of water by guanine has been taken into consideration.

Abstract
![]()
We report a benchmark study of vertical excitation energies
and
oscillator strengths for the HOMO → LUMO transitions of 17
boron–dipyrromethene (BODIPY) structures, showing a large variety
of ring sizes and substituents. Results obtained at the time-dependent
density functional theory (TDDFT) and at the delta-self-consistent-field
(ΔSCF) by using 13 different exchange correlation kernels (within
LDA, GGA, hybrid, and range-separated approximations) are benchmarked
against the experimental excitation energies when available. It is
found that the time-independent ΔSCF DFT method, when used in
combination with hybrid PBE0 and B3LYP functionals, largely outperforms
TDDFT and can be quite competitive, in terms of accuracy, with computationally
more costly wave function based methods such as CC2 and CASPT2.

Abstract
We have designed a new Bodipy scaffold for efficient in vivo photoacoustic (PA) imaging of nanoparticles commonly used as drug nanovectors. The new dye has an optimized absorption band in the near-infrared window in biological tissue and a low fluorescence quantum yield that leads to a good photoacoustic generation efficiency. After Bodipy-initiated ring-opening polymerization of lactide, the polylactide-Bodipy was formulated into PEGylated nanoparticles (NPs) by mixing with PLA-PEG at different concentrations. Formulated NPs around 100 nm exhibit excellent PA properties: an absorption band at 760 nm and a molar absorption coefficient in between that of molecular PA absorbers and gold NPs. Highly improved photostability compared to cyanine-labeled PLA NPs as well as innocuity in cultured macrophages were demonstrated. After intravenous injection in healthy animals, NPs were easily detected using a commercial PA imaging system and spectral unmixing, opening the way to their use as theranostic agents.

Abstract
A new BODIPY derivative (o-I-BDP) containing an iodine atom in the ortho position of the meso-linked phenyl group was prepared. Photophysical and electrochemical properties of the molecule were compared to previously reported iodo BODIPY derivatives, as well as to the non-iodinated analog. While in the case of derivatives featuring iodine substituents in the BODIPY core, efficient population of the triplet state is accompanied by a substantial positive shift of the reduction potential compared to pristine BODIPY, o-I-BDP displays phosphorescence and simultaneously maintains the electrochemical properties of unsubstituted BODIPYs. A theoretical investigation was settled to analyze results and rationalize the influence of iodine position on electronic and photophysical properties, with the purpose of preparing a fully organic phosphorescent BODIPY derivative. TD-DFT and spin-orbit coupling calculations shed light on the subtle effects played by the introduction of iodine atom in different positions of BODIPY.

Abstract
The vertical excitation energies of 13 BODIPY based dye sensitizers are benchmarked by means of TD-DFT, using 36 functionals from different DFT rungs. Most TD-DFT results were found to overestimate the excitation energies, and show mean absolute error (MAE) values in the range 0.2–0.5 eV. The dispersion-corrected, spin-component-scaled, double-hybrid (DSD) functionals DSD-BLYP and DSD-PBEP86 were found to have the smallest MAE values of 0.083 eV and 0.106 eV, respectively, which is close to the range of average errors found in the more expensive coupled-cluster methods. Moreover, DSD-BLYP and DSD-PBEP86 functionals show excellent consistency and quality of results (standard deviation = 0.048 eV and 0.069 eV respectively). However, the range separated hybrid (RSH) and the range separated double hybrid (RSDH) functionals were found to provide the best predictability (linear determination coefficient R2 > 0.97 eV). The excitation energies of 13 BODIPY dye sensitizers are benchmarked by means of TD-DFT, using 36 functionals. Spin-component-scaled double-hybrid (DSD) functionals are found to show the best performance.![]()

Abstract
The radiative emission lifetime and associated S1 excited state properties of a BODIPY dye are investigated with TDDFT and EOM-CCSD calculations. The effects of a solvent are described with the polarizable continuum model using the linear response (LR) approach as well as state-specific methods. The Franck-Condon (FC), Herzberg-Teller (HT) and Duschinsky vibronic effects are evaluated for the absorption and emission spectra, and for the radiative lifetime. The transition energies, spectra shapes and radiative lifetime are assessed with respect to experimental results. It is found that the TDDFT transition energies are overestimated by about 0.4-0.5 eV, whereas EOM-CCSD improves the vertical emission energy by about 0.1 eV in comparison to TDDFT. The solvatochromic and Stokes shifts are better reproduced by the state-specific solvation methods, which show that these methods are more suited than the LR model to describe the solvent effects on the BODIPY dye. The vibronic effects lead to an increase of the radiative lifetime of about 0.4 to 1.0 ns depending on the theoretical approach, which highlights the importance of such effects. Moreover, the HT effects are negligible on both the spectra and lifetime, which demonstrates that the FC approximation is accurate for the BODIPY dye. Finally, the comparison with experimental data shows that the radiative lifetimes predicted by EOM-CCSD and TDDFT have comparable accuracy.

Abstract
Internal conversion is the first step after photoexcitation to high lying electronic states, and plays a central role in many photoinduced processes. In this report, we demonstrate a truly ultrafast internal conversion (IC) in large molecules by time-resolved fluorescence (TF). Following photoexcitation to the Sn (n ≥ 2) state, TF of the S1 state was recorded for two boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) derivatives in solution. IC to S1 takes place nearly instantaneously within 20 fs for both molecules. Abundant nuclear wave packet motions in the S1 state are manifest in the TF signals, which demonstrates that the IC in these BODIPY molecules is coherent with respect to most of the vibrational modes. Theoretical calculations assuming impulsive IC to S1 account for the wave packet dynamics accurately.

Abstract
This study describes and rationalizes the electronic structure of BODIPY combining a large variety of quantum chemistry methods and computational tools. Examination of the obtained results using state-of-the-art electronic structure analyses provides a new and complete interpretation of the nature of low-lying electronic states in BODIPY and elucidates the limitations of excited-state methods in the computation of T1 and S1 energies, that is, systematic under- and overestimation of time-dependent density functional theory energies, respectively, and a large overestimation of the T1/S1 energy gap. Our analysis identifies the important role and physical origin of the mild open-shell character in the BODIPY ground state, that is, strong highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital exchange interactions. The study provides guidelines for the accurate quantification of the T1/S1 gap, which is extremely relevant for the computational investigation of the photophysical properties of BODIPY and its derivatives. These conclusions should be taken into consideration in order to predict and interpret conspicuous photoactivated phenomena such as intersystem crossing, singlet fission, and triplet-triplet annihilation. Moreover, we believe that our study might provide new ideas and strategies for the analysis of other molecular chromophores.

Abstract
A simple semiempiric phenomenological approach is developed for quantifying the solvent effect on the absorption and emission properties of BODIPYs. It is based on a new rule describing the linear relationship between the difference (Stokes shift) and the sum (double Gibbs free energy of electron transfer) for absorption and emission wavenumbers derived from a combination of solvent functions of Liptay theory. This rule is correspondent to changes of dipole moments in the ground and excited states. High reliability and advantages of the developed approach in comparison with traditional methods of the analysis of the solvatochromism based on Dimroth-Reichard and Lippert-Mataga solvent scales are illustrated for selected BODIPYs exhibiting positive, negative, and near-zero solvatochromism.

Abstract
The photophysical properties, especially the intersystem crossing (ISC) of two heavy-atom-free BODIPY derivatives with twisted π-conjugated frameworks (benzo[b]-fused BODIPY, BDP-B; and [a]phenanthrene-fused BODIPY, BDP-P), are studied with steady-state and time-resolved optical and electron paramagnetic resonance (TREPR) spectroscopic methods as well as with ADC(2) theoretical investigations. Interestingly, BDP-B has a planar π-conjugation framework, but it displays weaker UV-vis absorption (ε = 3.8 × 104 M-1 cm-1 at 569 nm) and fluorescence (ΦF < 0.1%), a short-lived singlet-excited state (fluorescence lifetime, τF = 0.2 ns), and a long-lived triplet state (τT = 132.3 μs). In comparison, the more twisted BDP-P shows stronger UV-vis absorption (ε = 9.8 × 104 M-1 cm-1 at 640 nm) and fluorescence (ΦF = 70%), longer singlet-excited-state lifetime (τF = 6.4 ns), and shorter triplet-state lifetime (τT = 18.9 μs). In contrast to helicenes (ΦT = ca. 90%), the ISC of BDP-P and BDP-B is nonefficient (ΦT < 23%). The electron spin selectivity of the ISC of the derivatives is different, manifested by the phase pattern of the TREPR spectra as AAEAEE and EEEAAA for BDP-B and BDP-P, respectively. The spatially confined T1 state wave function of the twisted molecule keeps the T1 state energy high (1.44-1.61 eV). A dark S1 state was identified for BDP-B. This work demonstrated that the twisted π-conjugated framework does not necessarily induce efficient ISC and we found a dark singlet state for BODIPY, which is rare.

Abstract
The derivatives of 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) are pivotal ingredients for a large number of functional, stimuli-responsive materials and therapeutic molecules based on their photophysical properties, and there is a urgent need to understand and predict their optical traits prior to investing a large amount of resources in preparing them. Density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TDDFT) computations were performed to calculate the excitation energies of the lowest-energy singlet excited state of a large series of common BODIPY derivatives employing various functional aiming at the best possible combination providing the least deviations from the experimental values. Using the common "fudge" correction, a series of combinations was investigated, and a methodology is proposed offering equal or better performances than what is reported in the literature.

Abstract
Aza-boron dipyrromethenes (aza-BODIPYs) presenting a benzothiadiazole substitution on upper positions are described. The strong electron-withdrawing effect of the benzothiadiazole moiety permits enhancement of the accepting strength and improves the delocalization of the aza-BODIPY core to attain a significant degree of electronic communication between the lower donating groups and the upper accepting groups. The nature of the intramolecular charge transfer is studied both experimentally and theoretically. Linear spectroscopy highlighted the strongly redshifted absorption and emission of the synthesized molecules with recorded fluorescence spectra over 1000 nm. Nonlinear optical properties were also investigated. Strong enhancement of the two-photon absorption of the substituted dyes compared with the unsubstituted one (up to 4520 GM at 1300 nm) results in an approximately 15-20 % improvement of the optical power limiting performances. These dyes are therefore a good starting point for further improvement of optical power limiting in the short-wave IR range.

Abstract
It was previously reported that Laplace transformed local CC2 (LCC2*) provided the best agreement (MAE = 0.145 eV) when comparing vertical excitation energies to experimental λmax for a benchmark set of 17 BODIPY/Aza-BODIPY molecules. However, these energies did not agree with values obtained from canonical CC2. Here we report LCC2* computations of vertical excitation energies on the same benchmark set of molecules using a newly implemented treatment of the ground state. Comparison with resolution-of-identity approximate coupled cluster to second-order (RI-CC2) results demonstrate that the new LCC2* results agree quantitatively. Furthermore, these values can easily be corrected empirically to also provide excellent agreement with the experiment. We show that the local algebraic diagrammatic construction to second-order (LADC(2)) method exhibits the same differences between implementations as seen for LCC2. The source of the difference is traced to an improved treatment of the ground state in the local methods, which decreases agreement with the experiment (as attributed to a fortuitous cancellation of errors) but significantly improves agreement with RI-CC2. While the absolute vertical excitation energies now show larger deviations, there remains a strong linear correlation between the LCC2* results and the experiment. For the 17 BODIPY/Aza-BODIPY molecules vertical excitation energies are determined using DLPNO-STEOM-CCSD and shown to have excellent agreement with experimental λmax (MAE = 0.145 eV), which is the best of all the single-reference methods. The vertical excitation energies are determined using LCC2*, empirically corrected LCC2*, and RI-CC2 for a series of eight large BODIPYs and Aza-BODIPYs.

Abstract
Accurate theoretical description of the electronic structure of boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) molecules has been a challenge, let alone the prediction of fluorescence quantum efficiency. In this Letter, we show that the electronic structures of BODIPYs can be accurately evaluated via the spin-flip time-dependent density functional theory with the B3LYP functional. With the resulting electronic structures, the experimental spectral line shapes of representative BODIPYs are successfully reproduced by our previously developed thermal vibration correlation function method. Most importantly, a two-channel scheme is proposed to describe the internal conversion of S1 to S0 in BODIPYs: channel I via direct vibrational relaxation within the harmonic region and channel II via a distorted S0/S1 minimum energy crossing point well away from the harmonic region. The fluorescence quantum yields are accurately predicted within this two-channel scheme, which can therefore serve as a generalized method for predicting the photophysical parameters of organic fluorescent compounds.

Abstract
Boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) molecules form a class of fluorescent dyes known for their exceptional photoluminescence properties. Today, they are used extensively in various applications from fluorescent imaging to optoelectronics. The ease of altering the BODIPY core has allowed scientists to synthesize dozens of analogues by exploring chemical substitutions of various kinds or by increasing the length of conjugated groups. However, predicting the impact of any chemical change accurately is still a challenge, especially as most computational methods fail to describe correctly the photophysical properties of BODIPY derivatives. In this study, the recently developed coupled cluster method called "domain-based local pair natural orbital similarity transformed equation of motion-coupled cluster singles and doubles" (DLPNO-STEOM-CCSD) is employed to compute the lowest vertical excitation energies of more than 50 BODIPY molecules. The method performs remarkably well yielding an accuracy of about 0.06 eV compared to the experimental absorption maxima. We also provide an estimate to the error made by neglecting vibronic effects in the computed spectra. The dyes selected for investigation here span a large range of molecular sizes and chemical functionalities and are embedded in solvents with different polarities. We have also investigated if the method is able to correctly reproduce the impact of a single chemical modification on the absorption energy. To characterize the method in more specific terms, we have studied four large BODIPY analogues used in real-life applications due to their interesting chemical properties. These examples should illustrate the capacity of the DLPNO-STEOM-CCSD procedure to become a method of choice for the study of photophysical properties of medium to large organic compounds.

Abstract
BODIPY dyes are used in a variety of applications because of their peculiar spectroscopic and photo-physical properties that vary depending on the stereochemistry of the functional groups attached to the boron-dipyrromethene core structure. In this work, we have applied several computational methods, adapted for semi-rigid molecules based on the Franck-Condon principle, for the study of the optical properties of BODIPY systems and for the understanding of the influence of functional groups on their spectroscopic features. We have analyzed the electronic spectra of two styryl substituted BODIPY molecules of technological interest, properly taking into account the vibronic contribution. For comparison with recently recorded experimental data in methanol, the vibrationally resolved electronic spectra of these systems were computed using both Time-Independent (TI) and Time-Dependent (TD) formalisms. The first step toward the analysis of optical properties of the styryl modified BODIPYs was a benchmark of several density functionals, to select the most appropriate one. We have found that all benchmarked functionals provide good results in terms of band shape but some of them show strong discrepancies in terms of band position. Beyond the issue of the electronic structure calculation method, different levels of sophistication can be adopted for the calculation of vibronic transitions. In this study, the effect of mode couplings and the influence of the Herzberg-Teller terms on the theoretical spectra has been investigated. It has been found that all levels of theory considered give reproducible results for the investigated systems: band positions and shapes are similar at all levels and little improvements have been found in terms of band shape with the inclusion of Herzberg-Teller effect. Inclusion of temperature effects proved to be challenging due to the important impact of large amplitude motions. Better agreement can be achieved by adopting a suitable set of coordinates coupled with a reduced-dimensionality scheme.

Abstract
The fluorescence lifetime is a key property of fluorophores that can be utilized for microenvironment probing, analyte sensing, and multiplexing as well as barcoding applications. For the rational design of lifetime probes and barcodes, theoretical methods have been developed to enable the ab initio prediction of this parameter, which depends strongly on interactions with solvent molecules and other chemical species in the emitteŕs immediate environment. In this work, we investigate how a conductor-like screening model (COSMO) can account for variations in fluorescence lifetimes that are caused by such fluorophore-solvent interactions. Therefore, we calculate vibrationally broadened fluorescence spectra using the nuclear ensemble method to obtain distorted molecular geometries to sample the electronic transitions with time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). The influence of the solvent on fluorescence lifetimes is accounted for with COSMO. For example, for 4-hydroxythiazole fluorophore containing different heteroatoms and acidic and basic moieties in aprotic and protic solvents of varying polarity, this approach was compared to experimentally determined lifetimes in the same solvents. Our results demonstrate a good correlation between theoretically predicted and experimentally measured fluorescence lifetimes except for the polar solvents ethanol and acetonitrile that can specifically interact with the heteroatoms and the carboxylic acid of the thiazole derivative.

Abstract
Increased interest has been devoted to the discovery of multifunctional materials with desirable properties, as continuous performance enhancement of various devices mainly depends on high-performance materials. Now, density functional theory has become a powerful tool to design new materials and rationalize experimental observations. In this work, we explored the photophysical properties origin of chiral boron heptaaryldipyrromethene (heptaaryl-BODIPY), which has charming optoelectronic properties. At the same time, we designed the other five compounds on the basis of heptaaryl-BODIPY. The simulated electronic absorption and emission spectra of heptaaryl-BODIPY are in agreement with experimental ones, allowing us to reliably assign its electronic transition property. The designed compound 6 shows remarkably large first hyperpolarizability value up to 82.78×10-30 esu. For this kind of compounds, their NLO response values associate with not only position but also electronic nature of substituent groups. Moreover, electron reorganization energies of compounds 1-4 are comparable to tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato)aluminium(III) which is a typical electron transport material. Intriguingly, the studied compounds are the excellent fluorescent probe materials from the standpoint of large Stokes shift and high emission efficiency. Our work enables an opportunity for understanding the relationship between microelectronic structure and macroscopic performance of BODIPY derivatives.

Abstract
A series of complex boronic acids were prepared through multicomponent reactions (MCRs). Both Passerini and Ugi MCRs were carried out in which one component was an arylboronic acid. The resulting highly functionalized boronic acids participated efficiently in the Liebeskind-Srogl cross-coupling reaction with meso-methylthioBODIPY derivatives to yield complex borondipyrromethene (BODIPY) dyes in good yields. The joined spectroscopic and computational study points out the deep impact of the arylated chromophoric position on the photophysical signatures. Thus, unconstrained aryls grafted at the meso position did not sway the spectral band positions but switched on new nonradiative relaxation channels, whereas additional arylation at the opposite α-pyrrolic position softened such fluorescence quenching and shifted the emission to the red-edge of the visible spectrum. The conducted biological analysis revealed that peripheral blood mononuclear cells incubated with these new compounds showed reduced cytotoxicity and retained their normal activities. Additionally, the dyes remained stable inside the cells after 24 h of incubation. These results demonstrated that these novel fluorescent probes based on BODIPY can be applied for cell imaging and analysis, expanding their applications.

Abstract
Considerable achievements on multiple emission capabilities and tunable wavelengths have been obtained in inorganic luminescent materials. However, the development of organic counterparts remains a grand challenge. Herein we report a series of 2-/2,6-aryl substituted boron-dipyrromethene dyes with wide-range and multi-fluorescence emissions across red and near infrared in their aggregation states. Experimental data of X-ray diffraction, UV–vis absorption, and room temperature fluorescence spectra have proved the multiple excitation and easy-adjustable emission features in aggregated boron-dipyrromethene dyes. Temperature-dependent and time-resolved fluorescence studies have indicated a successive energy transfer from high to step-wisely lower-located energy levels that correspond to different excitation states of aggregates. Consistent quantum chemical calculation results have proposed possible aggregation modes of boron-dipyrromethene dyes to further support the above-described scenario. Thus, this study greatly enriches the fundamental recognition of conventional boron-dipyrromethene dyes by illustrating the relationships between multiple emission behaviors and the aggregation states of boron-dipyrromethene molecules. The class of BODIPY dyes has high solubility and high quantum yields and is widely used in imaging applications. Here Tian et al. synthesize new dye molecules and demonstrate extended emission properties and application scope controllable both by the excitation wavelength and aggregation states.

Abstract
Fluorescence lifetimes were evaluated using TD-DFT under different approximations for the emitting molecule and various exchange-correlation functionals, such as B3LYP, BMK, CAM-B3LYP, LC-BLYP, M06, M06-2X, M11, PBE0, ωB97, ωB97X, LC-BLYP*, and ωB97X* where the range-separation parameters in the last two functionals were tuned in a non-empirical fashion. Changes in the optimised molecular geometries between the ground and electronically excited states were found to affect the quality of the calculated lifetimes significantly, while the inclusion of vibronic features led to further improvements over the assumption of a vertical electronic transition. The LC-BLYP* functional was found to return the most accurate fluorescence lifetimes with unsigned errors that are mostly within 1.5 ns of experimental values.
