Seven 5-substituted 3-hydrazinyl derivatives of 3a, 4a-diaza-4,4-difluoro-8-phenyl boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) were prepared for use as bioorthogonal fluorescent labels of aldehydes and ketones. The absorption energies can be tuned to absorb visible light over a large span of wavelengths by changing the nature of the 5-substituent. Optical properties of the hydrazones formed with these molecules are affected by the nature of the electrophile such that aliphatic and aromatic hydrazones can be d ...[more]
