Insight into the optical properties of meso-pentafluorophenyl(PFP)-BODIPY: An attractive platform for functionalization of BODIPY dyes

The pentafluorophenyl (PFP) moiety is an important and versatile substituent in the chemistry of BODIPYs, porphyrins and corroles. The widespread use of PFP meso-substituted compounds, as intermediates in the synthesis of more complex pyrrole derivatives, is the motivation behind this work, which in...
