Abstract
<p indent="0mm">Aromatic rings fused BF<sub>2</sub> azadipyrromethenes (AzaBODIPY) exhibit wide applications in frontier fields such as biomedicine and materials science due to their unique near-infrared absorption, emission, simple synthesis, modification and derivatization. Based on the modified strategies of aromatic rings fused AzaBODIPY dyes, this review mainly focuses on the latest research progress of the construction strategy, the regulatory of optoelectronic properties and the application of near-infrared AzaBODIPY dyes made by our group in recent years. Among those, [<italic>a</italic>]-aromatic rings fused AzaBODIPYs are mainly conducted by phthalodinitrile route and the route of totally synthetic aromatic pyrroles by nitrosation, condensation, and BF<sub>2</sub> chelation. And [<italic>b</italic>]-aromatic rings and [a,b]-aromatic rings annularly fused AzaBODIPYs are conducted by metal-catalyzed C–H activation or intramolecular dehydrogenation oxidation coupling reactions. Further researches indicate that these novel near infrared dyes exhibit advantageous bioimaging, therapy and semiconducting characteristics. Finally, the synthesis, application and development of these dyes have been discussed.
