{2-[(3,5-Dimethyl-2H-pyrrol-2-yl­idene-κN)(4-nitro­phen­yl)meth­yl]-3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrrol-1-ido-κN}difluoridoboron

In an effort to discover novel and potential boron–dipyrromethene (BODIPY) dyes, the title compound, C19H18BF2N3O2, was prepared from 2,4-dimethyl­pyrrole, 4-nitro­benzaldehyde and BF3·Et2O in a one-pot reaction. There are two independent mol­ecules, A and B, in the asymmetric unit in which the dihe...
