Communication: Bismaleimides having electron-donating diphenylmethylamine o
r triphenylamine moieties (A((=))-D-(*)-A((=))), as well as their saturated
model compounds were synthesized. Their fluorescence structural self-quenc
hing effect (SSQE). On the basis of this strong SSQE of A((=))-D-(*)-A((=))
bismaleimides, a new fluorescence approach can be developed to monitor the
curing process in bismaleimide resins, which is in agreement with the resu
lts from FT-IR and H-1 NMR analyses.
