BODIPY dye

BODIPY dye improves its fluorescence efficiency through selective α-position chlorination of 8-methylphenyl-BODIPY and electron-withdrawing group functionalization on boron center^[2].
BODIPY dye achieves bathochromic spectral shift toward far-red region and reaches maximum fluorescence quantum yield of 65 via extended conjugation with electron-withdrawing aryl substituents^[2].
BODIPY dyes can be functionalized with meso-pyrene or 4-phenylphenol moieties respectively, enabling reversible fluorescent sensing of solvent polarity or environmental pH via ICT or PET processes^[2].
BODIPY dyes induce chiral optical activities, including circular dichroism and circularly polarized luminescence. After forming helical bis-BODIPY via covalent linkage or combining with chiral binaphthol/vapol moieties, vapol-BODIPY acts as a highly efficient FRET-based antenna system^[2].
BODIPY dye bearing iodine substituents generates high-content singlet oxygen under light irradiation^[2].
BODIPY dye (5 μM; 15 min) non-specifically stains both Plasmodium falciparum strain W2-infected and uninfected human red blood cells^[3].
BODIPY dye (100 nM; 24 h) does not alter the morphology of *Plasmodium falciparum* strain 3D7 in infected human red blood cells^[3].
BODIPY dye exhibits no anti-plasmodial activity against *Plasmodium falciparum* strains W2 and HB3, shows moderate toxicity to CHO-K1 cells with an IC₅₀ of 88 μM, and does not induce hemolysis in healthy human red blood cells even at concentrations as high as 100 μM^[3].
