We report N,O-boron-chelated dipyrromethene derivatives exhibiting circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) in the red/near-infrared region, both in solution and the aggregated state. The CPL is originated from the helical chirality through intramolecular substitution of fluorine by an alkenolic substituent. The self-assembly of the fluorophores significantly enhances the |glum| values from 10−4 to 10−2.
