Spectroscopic properties of bis(BODIPY) complexes

The spectral-luminescence characteristics of binuclear bis(BODIPY) complexes in cyclohexane and ethanol, which exhibit different photophysical and photochemical properties in these solvents, have been investigated. It has been shown that the difference in spectroscopic properties is due to intermolecular interaction of the excited molecules with solvation shell. The possibilities of practical use are discussed.
