研究目的
Summarizing the different strategies for the synthesis of [a]-benzo-fused BODIPYs and their applications in bio-imaging and organic photovoltaics.
研究成果
The review highlights the promising photophysical properties of [a]-benzo-fused BODIPYs for applications in bio-imaging and organic photovoltaics. Despite the challenges in their synthesis, these fluorophores exhibit strong absorption and emission bands in the red to NIR region, making them attractive for various applications.
研究不足
The synthesis of [a]-benzo-fused BODIPYs often requires several steps and can be expensive and malodorous due to the use of isocyanides. The fluorescence quantum yields of aza-BODIPYs are generally lower than those of classical BODIPYs.
