title: Highly efficient energy transfer in subphthalocyanine-BODIPY conjugates.
abstract: Two novel subphthalocyanines substituted axially with a BODIPY or distyryl BODIPY moiety have been synthesized. Both systems exhibit a highly efficient photoinduced energy transfer process, either from the excited BODIPY to the subphthalocyanine core (for the former) or from the excited subphthalocyanine to the distyryl BODIPY unit (for the latter).
