The present invention relates to fluorescent diketopyrrolopyrrole of the formula I a process for their preparation and their use for the preparation of inks, colorants, pigmented plastics for coatings, non-impact-printing material, color filters, cosmetics, polymeric ink particles, toners, as fluorescent tracers, in color changing media, in solid dye lasers and electroluminescent devices. A luminescent device comprising a composition according to the present invention is high in the efficiency of electrical energy utilization and high in luminance.

Fluorescent diketopyrrolopyrroles

The present invention relates to fluorescent diketopyrrolopyrroles ('DPPs') of the formula Aand Aindependently from each other stand for characterized in that that at least two adjacent substituents Rto Rform an aromatic or aliphatic fused ring system, or at least one substituent Rto Ris cycloalkyl, aralkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkenyl, alkynyl, a hydroxyl group, a mercapto group, alkylthio, an aryl thioether group, a heterocyclic group, halogen, haloalkyl, haloalkenyl, haloalkynyl, a cyano group, an aldehyde group, a carbonyl group, a carboxyl group, an ester group, a carbamoyl group, a nitro group, a silyl group, a siloxanyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted vinyl, arylamino or diarylamino group; a process for their preparation and their use for the preparation of inks, colorants, pigmented plastics for coatings, non-impact-printing material, color filters, cosmetics, or for the preparation of polymeric ink particles, toners, dye lasers and electroluminescent devices. The fluorescent diketopyrrolopyrroles ('DPPs') of the formula I exhibit a high lightfastness, a high heat stability, especially in plastics. A luminescent device comprising a DPP compound of formula I is high in the efficiency of electrical energy utilisation, high in luminance and high in colour purity.

Disclosed are electroluminescent devices that comprise organic layers that contain certain 2H-benzotriazole compounds. The 2H-benzotriazole compounds of blue-emitting, durable, organo-electroluminescent layers. The electroluminescent devices may be employed for full color display panels in for example mobile phones, televisions and personal computer screens.

Electroluminescent device

The present invention relates to fluorescent diketopyrrolopyrrole of the formula (I), a process for their preparation and their use for the preparation of inks, colorants, pigmented plastics for coatings, non-impact-printing material, color filters, cosmetics, polymeric ink particles, toners, as fluorescent tracers, in color changing media, in solid dye lasers and electroluminescent devices. A luminescent device comprising a composition according to the present invention is high in the efficiency of electrical energy utilisation and high in luminance.
