BODIPY dyes and their derivatives: syntheses and spectroscopic properties.

For economical and ecological reasons, synthetic chemists are confronted with the increasing obligation of optimizing their synthetic methods. Maximizing efficiency and minimizing costs in the production of molecules and macromolecules constitutes, therefore, one of the most exciting challenges of synthetic chemistry.1-3 The ideal synthesis should produce the desired product in 100% yield and selectivity, in a safe and environmentally acceptable process.4 It is now well recognized that organometallic homogeneous catalysis offers one of the most promising approaches for solving this basic problem.2 Indeed, many of these homogeneous processes occur in high yields and selectivities and under mild reaction conditions. Most importantly, the steric and electronic properties of these catalysts can be tuned by varying the metal center and/or the ligands, thus rendering tailor-made molecular and macromolecular structures accessible.5,6 Despite the fact that various efficient methods, based on organometallic homogeneous catalysis, have been developed over the last 30 years on the laboratory scale, the industrial use of homogeneous catalytic processes is relatively limited.7 The separation of the products from the reaction mixture, the recovery of the catalysts, and the need for organic solvents are the major disadvantages in the homogeneous catalytic process. For these reasons, many homogeneous processes are not used on an industrial scale despite their benefits. Among the various approaches to address these problems, liquidliquid biphasic catalysis (“biphasic catalysis”) has emerged as one of the most important alternatives.6-11 The concept of this system implies that the molecular catalyst is soluble in only one phase whereas the substrates/products remain in the other phase. The reaction can take place in one (or both) of the phases or at the interface. In most cases, the catalyst phase can be reused and the products/substrates are simply removed from the reaction mixture by decantation. Moreover, in these biphasic systems it is possible to extract the primary products during the reaction and thus modulate the product selectivity.12 For a detailed discussion about this and other concepts of homogeneous catalyst immobilization, the reader is referred elsewhere.6,7 These biphasic systems might combine the advantages of both homogeneous (greater catalyst efficiency and mild reaction conditions) and heterogeneous (ease of catalyst recycling and separation of the products) catalysis. The advent of water-soluble organometallic complexes, especially those based on sulfonated phosphorus-containing ligands, has enabled various biphasic catalytic reactions to be conducted on an industrial scale.13-15 However, the use of water as a * Corresponding author.

Ionic liquid (molten salt) phase organometallic catalysis.

This critical review covers the advances made using the 4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) scaffold as a fluorophore in the design, synthesis and application of fluorescent indicators for pH, metal ions, anions, biomolecules, reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species, redox potential, chemical reactions and various physical phenomena. The sections of the review describing the criteria for rational design of fluorescent indicators and the mathematical expressions for analyzing spectrophotometric and fluorometric titrations are applicable to all fluorescent probes (206 references).

Spin-state/stereochemical relationships in iron porphyrins: implications for the hemoproteins

Information pertaining to the stereochemistry of metalloporphyrins and other tetrapyrroles continues to expand. The present article reviews important developments of this structural chemistry. Detailed updates on the relationship of the structure and physical properties of iron derivatives are given. Metalloporphyrins with unusually high or low oxidation states are reviewed. Surveys of recent work on π-cation radical complexes, bound O2 species, tetrapyrroles with N-substituents, the stereochemistry of ring-reduced tetrapyrroles and a variety of novel species are given. Newly developed data concerning experimental electron density studies are summarized. Detailed reviews of porphyrin-porphyrin (π-π) interactions in the solid state are given. A variety of important conformational aspects of metalloporphyrins and their consequent results on physical properties are presented. Finally, a number of isomorphous series and crystal packing effects in tetrapyrroles have been detailed.

Recent advances in the stereochemistry of metallotetrapyrroles

Boron−dipyrrin chromophores containing a 5-aryl group with or without internal steric hindrance toward aryl rotation have been synthesized and then characterized via X-ray diffraction, static and time-resolved optical spectroscopy, and theory. Compounds with a 5-phenyl or 5-(4-tert-butylphenyl) group show low fluorescence yields (∼0.06) and short excited-singlet-state lifetimes (∼500 ps), and decay primarily (>90%) by nonradiative internal conversion to the ground state. In contrast, sterically hindered analogues having an o-tolyl or mesityl group at the 5-position exhibit high fluorescence yields (∼0.9) and long excited-state lifetimes (∼6 ns). The X-ray structures indicate that the phenyl or 4-tert-butylphenyl ring lies at an angle of ∼60° with respect to the dipyrrin framework whereas the angle is ∼80° for mesityl or o-tolyl groups. The calculated potential energy surface for the phenyl-substituted complex indicates that the excited state has a second, lower energy minimum in which the nonhindered aryl...
