1,4-Diphenylbutadiyne is a chemical compound that has been used in fluorescence studies. It is insoluble in water and can be used as a polymer with high values. 1,4-Diphenylbutadiyne reacts with sodium carbonate to form the light emitting compound dimethyl fumarate. This reaction mechanism is due to the formation of an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the carbonyl group and one of the phenyl groups. The basic structure of this molecule is made up of nitrogen atoms that are arranged in a planar fashion. The molecule has high resistance to heat and oxidation, making it useful as a solid catalyst for reactions involving organic compounds.
