Abstract
Dipyrromethenes containing two pyrrole rings connected by one meso-carbon are versatile monoanionic bidentate ligands and form coordination complexes with many metals/nonmetals/metalloids. Dipyrroethenes containing one additional meso-carbon compared to dipyrromethenes have more space between coordinating pyrrole nitrogens and provide a good coordination environment but have not been explored as ligands in coordination chemistry. Dipyrroethenes are dianionic bidentate ligands and by suitable modifications, the coordination environment of dipyrroethenes can be changed further. Herein, we successfully synthesized α,α'-ditolylmethanone dipyrroethene which is a bipyrrolic tetradentate ligand with an ONNO ligand core and used it for the synthesis of novel Pd(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) metal complexes by treating it with respective metal salts in CH2Cl2/CH3OH at room temperature. The X-ray crystallographic structure of the metal complexes showed that the M(II) ion was coordinated to the ONNO atoms of the ligand in a perfect square planar geometry. The NMR studies of Pd(II) and Ni(II) complexes also supported the highly symmetric nature of the metal complexes. The absorption spectra of the metal complexes showed strong bands in the region of 300-550 nm. The electrochemical studies of metal complexes revealed that only ligand-based oxidation and reduction were observed. The DFT and TD-DFT studies were in agreement with the experimental observations. Our preliminary studies indicated that the Pd(II) complex can be used as a catalyst for the Fujiwara-Moritani olefination reaction.

Abstract
The heaviest pnictogen-dipyrromethenes DPMPnCl2 (Pn = Sb, 3; Bi 4), which are direct analogues of boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY), have been readily prepared and isolated as crystalline solids. Both compounds display green photoluminescence with small full widths at half maximum in toluene. Moreover, the reduction of 3 with sodium metal afforded the cyclic dicoordinate stibinidene 5.

Abstract
Within this work, we review the metal coordination effect on the photophysics of metal dipyrrinato complexes. Dipyrrinato complexes are promising candidates in the search for alternative transition metal photosensitizers for application in photodynamic therapy (PDT). These complexes can be activated by irradiation with light of a specific wavelength, after which, cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated. The metal coordination allows for the use of the heavy atom effect, which can enhance the triplet generation necessary for generation of ROS. Additionally, the flexibility of these complexes for metal ions, substitutions and ligands allows the possibility to tune their photophysical properties. A general overview of the mechanism of photodynamic therapy and the properties of the triplet photosensitizers is given, followed by further details of dipyrrinato complexes described in the literature that show relevance as photosensitizers for PDT. In particular, the photophysical properties of Re(I), Ru(II), Rh(III), Ir(III), Zn(II), Pd(II), Pt(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Ga(III), In(III) and Al(III) dipyrrinato complexes are discussed. The potential for future development in the field of (dipyrrinato)metal complexes is addressed, and several new research topics are suggested throughout this work. We propose that significant advances could be made for heteroleptic bis(dipyrrinato)zinc(II) and homoleptic bis(dipyrrinato)palladium(II) complexes and their application as photosensitizers for PDT.

Abstract
The generation of bio-targetable photosensitizers is of utmost importance to the emerging field of photodynamic therapy and antimicrobial (photo-)therapy. A synthetic strategy is presented in which chelating dipyrrin moieties are used to enhance the known photoactivity of iridium(III) metal complexes. Formed complexes can thus be functionalized in a facile manner with a range of targeting groups at their chemically active reaction sites. Dipyrrins with N- and O-substituents afforded (dipy)iridium(III) complexes via complexation with the respective Cp*-iridium(III) and ppy-iridium(III) precursors (dipy=dipyrrinato, Cp*=pentamethyl-η5 -cyclopentadienyl, ppy=2-phenylpyridyl). Similarly, electron-deficient [IrIII (dipy)(ppy)2 ] complexes could be used for post-functionalization, forming alkenyl, alkynyl and glyco-appended iridium(III) complexes. The phototoxic activity of these complexes has been assessed in cellular and bacterial assays with and without light; the [IrIII (Cl)(Cp*)(dipy)] complexes and the glyco-substituted iridium(III) complexes showing particular promise as photomedicine candidates. Representative crystal structures of the complexes are also presented.

Abstract
The dipyrrin–metal complexes and especially the boron complex 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) have recently attracted considerable attention because of their interesting properties and possible applications. We have developed two unique and useful ways to extend versatility and usefulness of the dipyrrin complexes. The first one is the linear and macrocyclic oligomerization of the BODIPY units. These arrangements of the B–F moieties of the oligomerized BODIPY units provide sophisticated functions, such as unique recognition ability toward cationic guest, associated with changes in the photophysical properties by utilizing unprecedented interactions between the B–F and a cationic species. The second one is introduction of additional ligating moieties into the dipyrrin skeleton. The multidentate N2Ox dipyrrin ligands thus obtained form a variety of complexes with 13 and 14 group elements, which are difficult to synthesize using the original N2 dipyrrin derivatives. Interestingly, these unique complexes exhibit novel structures, properties, and functions such as guest recognition, stimuli-responsive structural conversion, switching of the optical properties, excellent stability of the neutral radicals, etc. We believe that these multifunctional dipyrrin complexes will advance the basic chemistry of the dipyrrin complexes and develop their applications in the materials and medicinal chemistry fields.1 Introduction2 Linear Oligomers of Boron–Dipyrrin Complexes3 Cyclic Oligomers of Boron–Dipyrrin Complexes4 A Cyclic Oligomer of Zinc–Dipyrrin Complexes5 Group 13 Element Complexes of N2Ox Dipyrrins6 Chiral N2 and N2Ox Dipyrrin Complexes7 Group 14 Element Complexes of N2O2 Dipyrrins8 Other N2O2 Dipyrrin Complexes with Unique Properties and Functions9 Conclusion

Abstract
4,4-Difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacenes (F-BODIPYs) are deprotected through removal of the -BF2 moiety upon treatment with methylboronic acid. The tolerance of various substitution patterns about the dipyrrinato core is demonstrated via the deprotection of thirteen F-BODIPYs and an F-aza-BODIPY. Work-up with aq. HBr affords the desired dipyrin HBr salt in quantitative yield without need for purification.

Abstract
While dipyrrin-boron complexes (BODIPYs) and their derivatives have attracted much attention, dipyrrin-based metal complexes recently appeared as a novel luminescent material. So far, dipyrrin-metal complexes have been regarded as non-luminescent or weakly luminescent. Interestingly, introduction of steric hindrance at the meso-position and the development of heteroleptic complexes with proper frontier orbital ordering are two recent strategies that have been developed to improve their luminescent ability. Compared with BODIPYs, one of the distinctive advantages of dipyrrin-metal complexes is that they can form a series of self-assembled supramolecules and polymer assemblies via facile coordination reactions. In recent times, several supramolecular, coordination polymers and Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have been developed, [Formula: see text] by spontaneous coordination reactions between dipyrrin ligands and metal ions. As a novel luminescent material, dipyrrin-metal complexes have been applied in many fields. This review article summarizes recent developments in dipyrrin-metal complexes from the viewpoint of the improvement of luminescent ability, the formation of supramolecular and coordination polymers and their potential applications.

Abstract
Sometimes named half-porphyrins, bis-pyrrolic dipyrrin ligands endow their metal complexes with unique properties such as the potential to functionalize the heterocyclic backbone or the meso position and the ability to catalyze interesting chemical transformations. Thus, strategies towards the derivatization of or at the meso group and the use of dipyrrin metal complexes for the formation of a broad range of polypyrrolic derivatives such as 2,2'-bis-dipyrrins, nor-/hetero-corroles and porphynoids have been elaborated. Furthermore, the chelating ability of dipyrrins and the possibility of modifying their steric and electronic characteristics by functionalization can be exploited for the development of numerous complexes featuring appealing properties. Hence, C-H activation/amination, polymerization or oxidation reactions can be catalyzed by dipyrrin metal complexes and classical reagents such as Grignard species, Rh-based or Suzuki-Miyaura catalysts have been revisited by incorporation of dipyrrins in the coordination sphere of the metal cations. This contribution aims to review and illustrate all these aspects, highlighting the potential of these complexes for the design and synthesis of valuable organic compounds and metallo-organic architectures.

Abstract
A synthetic strategy to BODIPY dyes is presented giving access to a range of new compounds relevant in the context of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT). BODIPYs with the 8-(4-fluoro-3-nitrophenyl) and the 8-pentafluorophenyl substituents were used for the synthesis of new mono- and dibrominated BODIPYs. The para-fluorine atoms in these electron-withdrawing groups facilitate functional modification via nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) with a number of amines and thio-carbohydrates. Subsequently, the antibacterial phototoxic activity of these BODIPYs has been assessed in bacterial assays against the Gram-positive germ S. aureus and also against the Gram-negative germ P. aeruginosa. The bacterial assays allowed to identify substitution patterns which ensured antibacterial activity not only in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) but also in the presence of serum, hereby more realistically modelling the complex biological environment that is present in clinical applications.

Abstract
Propentdyopents are naturally occurring dipyrroles deriving from the metabolism of heme and characterized by a dipyrrin-1,9-dione motif. The unusual name propentdyopent is due to the first colorimetric method (the Stokvis reaction) for the detection of these compounds, which were initially isolated from urine samples. Upon reduction in alkaline solutions, they produced red species that were termed pentdyopents to describe with Greek numerals their absorption maximum (525 nm) in the visible range. The precursors to the red pentdyopents were thus indicated as propentdyopents.Over the course of several decades, these dipyrrolic compounds have appeared in several studies of human physiology, typically associated to conditions of abnormal heme metabolism and/or oxidative stress. Concurrently, synthetic investigations have confirmed their chemical structure, reactivity, and ability to coordinate metals as bidentate monoanionic ligands. Notably, the planar dipyrrindione platform can undergo reversible one-electron redox processes and thereby act as an electron reservoir in metal complexes. In combination with the documented ability of the carbonyl groups to act as hydrogen-bonding acceptors, the coordination chemistry of propentdyopents could lead to new applications for this old class of pigments. Furthermore, the observation of these pigments in several clinical contexts could potentially delineate a role of propentdyopents as diagnostic biomarkers. This mini-review summarizes both the chemistry and biology of propentdyopents while highlighting the ample space for new discoveries.
