6-Heptynoic acid is used as a precursor for the the preparation of boradiazaindacenes (BODIPY dyes) by reacting with oxalylchloirde. It is used to prepare 4,4-difluoro-8-(hept-6-yne)-3,5-di(2-(4-methoxyphenyl))-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-sindacene by reacting with 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-pyrrole.
Definition
