Abstract: The synthesis and properties of a variety of substituted BODIPY diesters is presented. We find that certain substitution patterns afford appreciable yields of the target compounds and that electronic effects result in predicable differential fluorescent behavior. Challenges to further water solubilize these dyes and/or provide new points of attachment for biological tagging remain, these strategies are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
