In this study, two Bodipy compounds were synthesized using 2,4-dimethyl pyrrole as a pyrrole derivative. It was desired that both intermediates and target compounds can be obtained purely from these synthesized products, and for this reason, column chromatography was applied at every stage of the synthesis. The products were synthesized by hand and characterized by various methods. First, melting point determination and FT-IR spectra were examined, then, after the analysis of the functional group with FT-IR spectroscopy,1H and 13C-NMR spectra of these compounds were taken. While taking the NMR spectra, deuteuro-chloroform was used as the solvent. These synthesized compounds were shortly named as B1 and B2. After the initial characterization processes, some optical properties of the compounds were examined with UV–vis spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy. In addition, the effect of solvent on the fluorescence properties of these compounds was investigated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper was aimed to modify gold electrode surface with a BODIPY derivative and to examine its electrochemical behavior on the modified surface. Firstly, a BODIPY derivative including azido terminal was synthesized and characterized with several techniques such as NMR, FT-IR, element analysis and melting point. For the electrochemical studies, a triple electrode system was applied, with Gold electrode, Ag/AgCl (in aqueous medium) or Ag/Ag+ (in non-aqueous medium) and a Pt wire. The modified surface has been characterized using different electrochemical techniques. Then, the morphologies of the bare and modified electrode surfaces were evaluated with Scanning Electron Microscopy and Atomic Force Microscope. The metal adsorption property of the modified surface was investigated by using a copper solution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
