摘要

A series of selenophene-substituted boron-dipyrrin (BODIPY) monomers and selenophene-linked BODIPY oligomers was synthesized. The synthesized BODIPYs show good absorption/emission properties in the red to near-infrared region. Furthermore, some of the selenophenyl BODIPYs are not only useful fluorophores but also good photosensitizers to produce singlet oxygen.
