Seven novel fluorescence-traced 1-aryl-2-substituted-3-allyl-1H- benzimidazolium bromides (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g) were synthesized by alkylation and quaternization of compounds 1-aryl-2-substituted-1H- benzimidazoles (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, 4e, 4f, 4g) with excess allyl bromide in acetonitrile at refluxing temperature. Their structures were characterized by 1H-NMR, MS, and elemental analysis. They emit violet-blue light (λEmmax = 386-438 nm) with fluorescence quantum yields of 0.54 to 0.75 in aqueous solution.

A series of novel blue light-emitting 1-alkyl-2-substituted benzimidazoles (4a-4g) were synthesized by reactions of the 2-substituted benzimidazoles (3a-3e) with ethyl bromide or n-butyl bromide as electrophilic reagent. Compounds 3a, 3c, 3e were synthesized by the condensation of 1a-1c with 1,2-diamino benzene o-phenylene diamine using air as oxidizing agent and compounds 3b, 3d were synthesized by the condensation of 2d-2e with 1,2-diamino benzene o-phenylene diamine using phosphoric acid and polyphosphoric acid as catalyst. Their optical properties were investigated by UV-visible spectroscopy and photoluminescence techniques in solution. They emit violetblue light (lEm max = 380-440 nm) with fluorescence quantum yields of 0.43 to 0.92 while diluted in acetonitrile solution. In order to find the relationship between the structures and properties of compounds 4a-4g, theoretical calculations using density functional theory at the B3LYP/6-31g*level were also studied.
