ABSTRACT
Ferrocene-BODIPYmerocyanine dyads 5 and 6 were prepared and characterized by a variety of spectroscopic, electrochemical, and theoretical methods. Experimental and theoretical data on these NIR absorbing compounds are suggestive of unusual susceptibility (for BODIPY chromophores) of the delocalized π-system in 5 and 6 to protonation and low-potential oxidation of their π-systems.
