Abstract
Several (multiply) iodinated squarylium cyanine dyes of type 1 and 8 (see Scheme and Table), derived from 1,3‐benzothiazole and 6‐iodo‐1,3‐benzothiazole, were synthesized as potential new photosensitizers, with absorptions in the 700‐nm region. Their ability to generate singlet oxygen (^1^O~2~) was assessed by luminescence‐decay measurement in the near‐IR. Some of these new dyes show interesting photophysical properties, and may be potentially used in photodynamic therapy (PDT).

## Abstract The synthesis, surface activity and micelle formation of three novel cyanine dyes with amphiphilic character is described. It is illustrated by combined surface tension and absorption measurements that in one case self‐assembly is highly cooperative leading to aggregates with unique abs
## Abstract The synthesis of the chiral monomethine cyanine dyes 8 and 9 starting with the achiral indole 1 is described. Key intermediates are the new chiral Fischer bases __R__‐ and __S__‐4, which were separated after diastereomeric salt formation. The conformation of the dyes 8 and 9 is twisted
