Hemicurcuminoids are based on half of the π-conjugated backbone of curcuminoids. The synthesis of a series of such systems and their borondifluoride complexes is described. The electrochemical and photophysical properties of difluorodioxaborine species were investigated as a function of the nature of electron donor and acceptor groups appended at either terminal positions of the molecular backbone. The emissive character of these dipolar dyes was attributed to an intraligand charge transfer… 
Boron Difluoride Curcuminoid Fluorophores with Enhanced Two-Photon Excited Fluorescence Emission and Versatile Living-Cell Imaging Properties.
TLDR
Overall, this structure-relationship study allows the optimization of the two-photon brightness with one dye that emits in the NIR region of the spectrum with high intracellular uptake efficiency in Cos7 cells with emission in the visible region.
Photophysical and Photoacoustic Properties of Quadrupolar Borondifluoride Curcuminoid Dyes.
The synthesis and characterization of a series of donor-π-acceptor-π-donor (D-A-D) curcuminoid molecules is presented herein that incorporates π-extended aryl and electron-donating amino terminal
Multi-stimuli-responsive fluorescence of a highly emissive difluoroboron complex in both solution and solid states
A highly fluorescent emissive difluoroboron complex (TC) was designed, synthesized and characterized. The absolute fluorescence quantum yields of TC are 33.0% in the solid state and 26.0% in the
Theoretical and Experimental Study on Boron β-Diketonate Complexes with Intense Two-Photon-Induced Fluorescence in Solution and in the Solid State.
TLDR
Three boron diketonate chromophores with extended π-conjugated backbone were prepared and their spectroscopic features were investigated, and it was shown that the two-photon absorption properties were dominated by the quadrupolar term.
Modulation of the Photophysical Properties of β-substituted BODIPY Dyes
TLDR
For the synthesized BODIPY dyes fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes show very sharp decrease with an increase in the solvent polarity, suggesting the involvement of highly polar ICT state de-excitation mechanism along with the local excitation process.
Photochemically-assisted synthesis and photophysical properties of difluoroboronated β-diketones with fused four-benzene-ring chromophores, chrysene and pyrene.
TLDR
It was found that PyB is fluorescent, whereas the fluorescence quantum yields of the ChBs depend on the substituted position of the chrysene moiety, which is shown to be of a charge-transfer character.
Exciton Interactions, Excimer Formation and [2π+2π] Photodimerization in Nonconjugated Curcuminoid-BF2 Dimers.
TLDR
This work describes the synthesis of a series of covalently-linked dimers of quadrupolar curcuminoid-BF2 dyes and the detailed investigation of their solvent-dependent spectroscopic and photophysical properties, and represents the first example of a [2π+2π] photodimerization of the curCuminoid chromophore.
