Abstract
Energy transfer cassettes composed entirely of boradiazaindacene (Bodipy) units were designed and synthesized to capture photonic energy and convert it to longer wavelength fluorescence emission. The new energy transfer systems obtained by simple condensation reactions are capable of elaborating efficient energy transfer from donor Bodipy units to the distyryl-Bodipy acceptor.
