Attachment of −tBu groups to aza-BODIPY core at 3,5-sites with ultra-large Stokes shift to enhance photothermal therapy through apoptosis mechanism

By the introduction of the −tBu groups into aza-BODIPY core, di-tert-butyl-substituted aza-BODIPYs at 3,5-sites (tBuazaBDPs) were prepared for the first time. Based on the X-ray analysis of CN-tBuazaBDP, this molecular structure is twisted. Near-infrared dye SMe-tBuazaBDP has the ultra-large Stokes...
