Synthesis, Spectroscopic, Computational, and PDT Investigations of a Series of Cationic Meso -(3-pyridyl)-indolylstyryl-BODIPYs

Abstract Boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) dyes bearing a meso-(3-pyridyl) moiety have found multiple applications, such as pH and metal ion sensors, fluorescence probes, and as sensitizers for phototherapy. A series of 3-mono- and 3,5-di-indolylstyryl-BODIPYs bearing a meso-(3-pyrid...

Synthesis and Investigations of EGFR-Targeted Aza-BODIPY Conjugates

Abstract Two isothiocyanate-functionalized aza-boron−dipyrrome-thenes (aza-BODIPYs), 1 and 2, were covalently conjugated to the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeting Erlotinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and one of them also to the peptide cyclo(KLARLLT) known to ta...
