Abstract

The title arene-dicarboximides 8a–8d, having a benzo[k]fluoranthene skeleton, were synthesized in two steps from N-phenyl-1, 3-diarylisobenzofuran-5, 6-dicarboximides 4a–4d by the Diels-Alder reaction with acenaphthylene and subsequent dehydration with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid. Under photo-excitation these dicarboximides emit blue light, notably, with high quantum yields.
