Abstract
The development of chiral BODIPYs attracts remarkable interest due to their unique properties, structural diversity, and good photochemical stability, whereas achieving the construction of chiral BODIPYs maintains scarce. Herein, we present an enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral BODIPYs through Suzuki-Miyaura coupling. The newly synthesized chiral BODIPYs and the coassembly showed desirable photophysical properties, including high fluorescence quantum yields and intense CPL, both in solution and the solid state.
