Lipophilicity of BODIPY fluorophores and their distribution in 1-octanol–water system

Open full text 2 citations

Abstract

The work covers synthesis and lipophilicity estimation of several BODIPY dyes. For these compounds, the distribution between 1-octanol and water layers is experimentally described and the corresponding partition coefficients LogP are calculated. The experimental LogP values are compared with popular fragment-based methods XLopP3, ALogPS, WLogP, SILICOS-IT and MLogP. Additionally, the hydrophobic and polar surface areas are found with quantum-mechanical calculations. That allowed to find a correlation between the LogP coefficient and the molecular surface topology, as well as to determine the corresponding incremental values of the methyl, acetyl, and phenyl substituents.
