Abstract

Abstract An electroluminescence device comprising, as a light emitting material, a compound represented by the general formula: wherein each symbol is an defined in the specification, is disclosed. Aromatic dimethylidyne compounds represented by the general formula: wherein each symbol is an defined in the specification, a process for efficiently preparing the above compounds, and electroluminescence devices (EL devices) using the above compounds as a light emitting material, are also disclosed. The aromatic dimethylidyne compounds are novel compounds, and EL devices using these compounds provide EL light emission of high luminance in a region of bluish purple to green.
