Water-soluble BODIPY derivatives

Org Lett. 2009 May 21;11(10):2049-52. doi: 10.1021/ol900302n.

Abstract

New, water-soluble BODIPY dyes have been readily obtained from various BODIPY cores by reactions involving the introduction of novel sulfonated peptide chains by either coupling or substitution to give dimethylpropargylamine derivatives subsequently quaternized by reaction with propanesultone.
