Synthesis and Characterization of Hydrazine-Appended BODIPY Dyes and the Related Aminomethyl Complexes.

ABSTRACT: The synthesis and characterization of three new organic hydrazines containing BODIPY dyes is described. The respective aminomethyl complexes were also synthesized to aid in the assignment of the physical properties that were hydrazine-based vs. BODIPY-based. Incorporation of a BODIPY dye into an organic hydrazine introduced a reduction event (average value of -1.70 V vs. Cp₂Fe/Cp₂Fe⁺). Although two irreversible oxidation events were observed, it was unclear whether the oxidation events arose from BODIPY-based or amine/hydrazine-based oxidations. The respective BODIPY-appended hydrazine complexes exhibited excited state lifetimes on the order of 2-6 ns, suggesting the presence of a singlet excited state. The excited state lifetimes of the BODIPY-appended hyd
