Abstract

Six new push–pull chromophores based on phenylacetylenes were prepared: two 1,2‐diphenylacetylenes and four 1,4‐bis(phenylethynyl)benzenes. The donor amino groups have hydroxyethyl substituents, and the acceptor groups are cyano or nitro. More soluble versions were made by including two methoxy groups on the central phenyl ring.
