China Manuscript received online 27 May 2014, accepted 15 October 2016 The molecular structures, infrared and electronic absorption spectra of four meso-phenyl and 3,5-diaryl substituted BODIPY dyes, A to D, were investigated theoretically using the gradient-corrected density functional theory B3LYP method. The dependence of spectra with the molecular and electronic structures was investigated on the basis of time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) computations with the B3LYP hybrid functional under 6-31+G*, 6-31G and 6-31G* in different solvents. The vibrational and transition modes of spectra were explored in terms of their microscopic origin. According to structure analysis, the intersection angles of BODIPY core with meso-phenyl were estimated 59–61º and the angles of BODIPY ring with 3,5-diaryl groups were evaluated 38–62º. The UV-Vis spectra were in good accordance with the experimental values. The maximum wavelengths of BODIPYs arose from S0→S1 transition which stemmed from HOMO to LUMO (πBODIPY core→πBODIPY core*). However, the maximum absorptions of four BODIPYs increased inconspicuously with magnified the 3,5-diaryl substitution that caused by nonradioactive loss of energy via rotation around the C-Ar bonds to preventing free rotation. The solvation energies of four BODIPYs are –26.26, –30.39, –34.1, –27.58 kJ/mol, respectively.
