Abstract
Recent years have witnessed an increasing interest in the synthesis and study of BODIPY-glycoconjugates. Most of the described synthetic methods toward these derivatives involve postfunctional modifications of the BODIPY core followed by the covalent attachment of the fluorophore and the carbohydrate through a "connector". Conversely, few de novo synthetic approaches to linker-free carbohydrate-BODIPY hybrids have been described. We have developed a reliable modular, de novo, synthetic strategy to linker-free BODIPY-sugar derivatives using the condensation of pyrrole C-glycosides with a pyrrole-carbaldehyde derivative mediated by POCl3. This methodology allows labeling of carbohydrate biomolecules with fluorescent-enough BODIPYs within the biological window, stable in aqueous media, and able to display singlet oxygen generation.
