Abstract
In view of the ever-growing demand for efficient NIR fluorophores for biomedical applications, we herein report the synthesis and properties of four unsymmetrical aza-BODIPYs exhibiting NIR fluorescence. Highly desirable photophysical and photochemical properties were induced in these molecules due to the presence of both strongly electron-withdrawing p-nitrophenyl rings (p-NO2Ph-) and mildly electron-donating p-methoxyphenyl rings (p-MeOPh-) within the aza-BODIPY core. In particular, upon excitation with λabs the unsymmetrical aza-BODIPYs studied exhibited NIR emission with λf ranging from 699 nm to 718 nm in toluene. The fluorescence quantum yields (Φf), depending on the substitution pattern, ranged from Φf = 0.49 to Φf = 0.22 and the fluorescence lifetimes ranged from τf = 1.90 ns to τf = 3.59 ns. Aza-BODIPY with electron-donating substituent at 3 position and electron-withdrawing substituent at 5 position was identified as cell permeable, NIR emitting fluorophore suitable for bioimaging.

Pieczykolan M, Derr JB, Chrayteh A, Koszarna B, Clark JA, Vakuliuk O, Jacquemin D, Vullev VI, Gryko DT. The Synthesis and Photophysical Properties of Weakly Coupled Diketopyrrolopyrroles. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26164744. [PMID: 34443329 PMCID: PMC8398321 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26164744] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2021] [Revised: 07/21/2021] [Accepted: 07/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Three centrosymmetric diketopyrrolopyrroles possessing either two 2-(2′-methoxyphenyl)benzothiazole or two 2-(2′-methoxyphenyl)benzoxazolo-thiophene scaffolds were synthesized in a straightforward manner, and their photophysical properties were investigated. Their emission was significantly bathochromically shifted as compared with that of simple DPPs reaching 650 nm. Judging from theoretical calculations performed with time-dependent density functional theory, in all three cases the excited state was localized on the DPP core and there was no significant CT character. Consequently, emission was almost independent of solvents’ polarity. DPPs possessing 2,5-thiophene units vicinal to DPP core play a role in electronic transitions, resulting in bathochromically shifted absorption and emission. Interestingly, as judged from transient absorption dynamics, intersystem crossing was responsible for the deactivation of the excited states of DPPs possessing para linkers but not in the case of dye bearing meta linker.

Recent Progress on Synthesis of N, N'-Chelate Organoboron Derivatives. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26051401.

Abstract
N,N′-chelate organoboron compounds have been successfully applied in bioimaging, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), functional polymer, photocatalyst, electroluminescent (EL) devices, and other science and technology areas. However, the concise and efficient synthetic methods become more and more significant for material science, biomedical research, or other practical science. Here, we summarized the organoboron-N,N′-chelate derivatives and showed the different routes of their syntheses. Traditional methods to synthesize N,N′-chelate organoboron compounds were mainly using bidentate ligand containing nitrogen reacting with trivalent boron reagents. In this review, we described a series of bidentate ligands, such as bipyridine, 2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-indole, 2-(5-methyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)quinoline, N-(quinolin-8-yl)acetamide, 1,10-phenanthroline, and diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP).

Abstract
Red‐emissive π‐expanded diketopyrrolopyrroles (DPPs) with fluorescence reaching λ=750 nm can be easily synthesized by a three‐step strategy involving the preparation of diketopyrrolopyrrole followed by N‐arylation and subsequent intramolecular palladium‐catalyzed direct arylation. Comprehensive spectroscopic assays combined with first‐principles calculations corroborated that both N‐arylated and fused DPPs reach a locally excited (S1) state after excitation, followed by internal conversion to states with solvent and structural relaxation, before eventually undergoing intersystem crossing. Only the structurally relaxed state is fluorescent, with lifetimes in the range of several nanoseconds and tens of picoseconds in nonpolar and polar solvents, respectively. The lifetimes correlate with the fluorescence quantum yields, which range from 6 % to 88 % in nonpolar solvents and from 0.4 % and 3.2 % in polar solvents. A very inefficient (T1) population is responsible for fluorescence quantum yields as high as 88 % for the fully fused DPP in polar solvents.

Chemphyschem 2020; 21:725-740.

Abstract
We report herein the synthesis of aza-BODIPY substituted with strongly electron-donating p-(diphenylamino)phenyl substituents (p-Ph2 N-) at 3,5-positions. The presence of p-Ph2 N- groups lowers the energy of the singlet excited state (Es ) to 1.48 eV and induces NIR absorption with λabs at 789 nm in THF. The compound studied is weakly emissive with the emission band (λf ) at 837 nm and with the singlet lifetime (τS ) equal to 100 ps. Nanosecond laser photolysis experiments of the aza-BODIPY in question revealed T1 →Tn absorption spanning from ca. 350-550 nm with the triplet lifetime (τT ) equal to 21 μs. By introducing a heavy atom (Br) into the structure of the aza-BODIPY, we managed to turn it into a NIR operating photosensitizer. The photosensitized oxygenation of the model compound-diphenylisobenzofuran (DPBF)-proceedes via Type I and/or Type III mechanism without formation of singlet oxygen (1 O2 ). As estimated by CV/DPV measurements, the p-Ph2 N- substituted aza-BODIPYs studied exhibits oxidation processes at relatively low oxidation potentials (Eox 1 ), pointing to the very good electron-donating properties of these molecules. Extremely high photostability and thermal robustness up to approximately 300 °C are observed for the p-Ph2 N- substituted aza-BODIPYs.
