title: Gallium(III)corrole-BODIPY hybrid: novel photophysical properties and first observation of B-F∙∙∙F interactions.
abstract: Anchoring a BODIPY onto Ga(III)corrole via a meso-β linkage facilitated PeT in polar solvents, which quenched the fluorescence, and is further confirmed by electrochemical studies. The triad exhibits unprecedented crystal emission, which is not known for a corrole derivative, due to unique packing. Compound 4 hosts the first example of a novel B-F∙∙∙F interaction as well.
