26. We have also prepared several pyrene derivatives bearing cinnamyl and cinnamoyl groups. However, they were less reactive than 1a-c.

30. The fluorescence spectra of 1a,b, 3, and 5t in cyclohexane showed the weak intramolecular exciplex emission at a longer wavelength than the monomer fluorescence of pyrene. In the cases of 1c,d, the exciplex maxima were clearly observed at 450 and 470 nm, respectively.
