New 8-NR2-BODIPYs, R2 = H(i)Pr (3a), H(i)Bu (3b), and Et2 (4), are reported. Restricted rotation about the C8-N bond in such molecules has been observed for the first time (3a and 3b) and evaluated using VT NMR. The fluorophores 3a and 3b are blue emitters, and the efficiency of the emission is closely related to the…
