These novel chiral BODIPYs mean a new strategy for the chiral perturbation of the inherently achiral BODIPY chromophore that is directed to enable chiroptical properties. Their preparation is very simple and only implies the complexation of a dipyrrin with an enantiopure dialkylborane having boron bonded to chiral carbons. %~
