Bridge-induced taming of the visible electronic circular dichroism signatures of helicoBODIPYs Open
Helically-flexible bis(BODIPY)s based on chiral ethane-1,2-diamine or −1,2-diol bridges (named helicoBODIPYs) are an interesting family of accessible and tunable small multichromophoric organic dyes enabling visible electronic circular dic…

Formylation as a Chemical Tool to Modulate the Performance of Photosensitizers Based on Boron Dipyrromethene Dimers Open
Heavy-atom-free photosensitizers are envisioned as the next generation of photoactive molecules for photo-theragnosis. In this approach, and after suitable irradiation, a single molecular scaffold is able to visualize and kill tumour cells…

Tuning CPL by helical pitch modulation in helically flexible small organic multichromophores Open
Modulating the helical pitch by simply playing with steric effects in a series of helically flexible BODIPY dimers allows easy tuning of the luminescence dissymmetry factors associated with their circularly polarized emissions.

Development of Geometry-Controlled All-Orthogonal BODIPY Trimers for Photodynamic Therapy and Phototheragnosis Open
We have established an easy synthetic protocol for selectively developing all-orthogonal BODIPY trimers with unprecedented geometries on the basis of selecting methyl oxidation versus electrophilic formylation of key dimeric precursors. Ph…

Influence of At-Bridge Nitro Groups on the Photophysics and Chiroptics of helicoBODIPYs: A Step Forward towards the Development of New Chiroptical Sensors Open
A new helicoBODIPY (bisBODIPY with helical chirality) with nitro groups at the chiral bridge has been synthesized as a model to study the influence of the at-bridge substitution on the photophysics and chiroptics of the helicoBODIPY. This …

Exploring New Mitochondria-Targetable Theragnostic styrylBODIPYs Open
Two analogs of a previous mitochondria-targetable theragnostic styrylBODIPY have been designed, synthesized, and submitted to preliminary studies in order to explore their capability to act as new theragnostic agents with absorption in the…

From photosensitizers to light harvesters adapting the molecular structure in all-BODIPY assemblies Open
The designed protocol enables a fine modulation of the photonic performance of BODIPY-based molecular assemblies. The choice of the spacer and building blocks leads to triads featuring tunable singlet oxygen generation and an energy transf…
