Asymmetric BODIPY Dyes Enabling Triplet-Triplet Annihilation Upconversion.

ABSTRACT: The construction of triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion (TTA-UC) systems with upconversion (UC) emission efficiency at low power densities is still under continuing exploration. From an environmental point of view, the utilization of purely organic pairs is more beneficial than the involvement of transition-metal complexes. In this context, 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) dyes, which can be found in a wide range of applications, have been previously used as suitable sensitizers in TTA-UC systems. The versatility of these scaffolds makes them magnificent objectives for designing and synthesizing potential entities with different target abilities. Herein, we prepared several asymmetric BODIPY dyes with excellent optical properties to be applied to a bimolecul
