9,10-Bis(phenylethynyl)anthracene

9,10-Bis(phenylethynyl)anthracene is used as a chemiluminescent fluorophore with high quantum efficiency. It is used in lightsticks as a fluorophor producing ghostly green light. It is also used as a dopant for organic semiconductors in OLEDs. It is used as a reagent for chemiluminescence research. 9,10-Bis(phenylethynyl)anthracene is known to exert fluorescence properties due to its polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon system and it is commonly used as an scintillator additive. 9,10-Bis(phenylethynyl)anthracene was also studied extensively as a fluorescence emitters for peroxyoxalate chemiluminescence.
