Abstract

Bismaleimides and bisitaconimides bearing diphenylmethylamine, triphenylamine, or 2, 5- diphenyl-1, 3, 4-oxadiazole chromophore (symbolized as A (=)-D (*)-A (=)), as well as their saturated model compounds were synthesized, and their steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectra were investigated. These A (=)-D (*)-A (=) monomers display strong intramolecular fluorescence quenching. Their fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes ...
