Abstract
In the title dye compound, C19H14BF7N2, the boron–dipyrromethene core lies on a crystallographic mirror plane which bisects the BF2 and pentafluorophenyl groups. The dihedral angle between the pentafluorophenyl ring and the tricyclic system is thus 90° by symmetry. The sp 3-hybridized B atom has a slightly distorted tetrahedral coordination.
