DESCRIPTION:Prof. Daniel B. Werz\nUniversity of Freiburg\, Germany\nThe r
 ich chemistry of the BODIPY motif\, together with its beneficial photophys
 ical properties\, has markedly\nboosted the popularity of this user-friend
 ly fluorophore over the last few decades.\n[1] The diversity of easily\nin
 corporated fluorescence modulation modes has set the stage for a variety o
 f sensorically active species.\nThe talk describes which physical-organic 
 rationalisation led to the development of the BOIMPY motif\nshowing a sign
 ificant red-shift with respect to the parent BODIPY.\n[2] In addition\, a 
 simple synthetic route to\noligomerized ethano-linked BODIPYs (up to an oc
 tamer) is presented which can be further oxidized to huge\ncompletely conj
 ugated systems.\n[3] Photophysical properties and biological properties ar
 e discussed by\nexperimental and theoretical means.[4] It is shown that th
 e suprastructure of the oligomeric dyes plays a\nsignificant role for thei
 r absorption and emission properties and that the conjugated systems are i
 nteresting\nNIR fluorophores.
