The fluorescence quenching of perylene and pyrene by dimethyl terephthalate (DMTP) and N,N-dimethylaniline (DMA) have been investigated. The results show that pyrene can form exciplex with DMTP or DMA at room temperature and perylene can only form exciplex with DMA.

A novel luminescent compound, 9,9-bis[4'-(beta-naphthyl-methacrylate)phenyl]fluorene (F-NMAP) is synthesized by Heck reaction of beta-naphthyl methacrylic ester (NMAE) and 9,9-bis(4'-iodophenyl)-fluorene (BIPF). The structure is characterized by MS, 1H NMR, IR, and UV-vis spectroscopy. The photophysical processes of F-NMAP have been carefully investigated
