Abstract

Novel indolo-quinoline compounds were efficiently prepared via a Povarov-type reaction, and the structures were further modified by a Suzuki coupling reaction. The corresponding BF2-rigidified complexes were prepared and their spectroscopic properties were characterized with large Stokes shifts (up to 211 nm) and up to near-infrared (NIR) wavelength (667 nm). The synthetic complexes could be used as new fluorescent dyes.
