A series of boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) dyes with properties that are ideal for a good photosensitizer have been prepared. Functionalization with bromine atoms and attachment to gold nanoparticles through a meso-aniline group results in high singlet oxygen quantum yields and low fluorescent quantum yields. Molecular modelling was used to analyze trends in the MO energies of various brominated aniline BODIPY dyes.
