Abstract

Phosphine-assisted annulation of 2,5-diarylfuran-3,4-dicarbaldehydes with maleimides provided the title isobenzofurans in satisfactory yields. An effect of the substituents at the para position of the aryl groups in these isobenzofurans was demonstrated clearly by a red shift in their UV-vis absorption and emission spectra. They were transformed into the corresponding naphthalene-2,3:6,7-bis(dicarboximide)s by Diels-Alder reaction with another maleimide and subsequent dehydration with the aid of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid. Emission behavior of the title bis(dicarboximide)s is also described.
