  Abstract:
     A novel class of 2-phenylnaphthoquinone derivative (PNQ), which is useful as a sensitizer of organic photoconductor (OPC) has been developed. In a molecular design, we attended to make PNQ have a chemical stability and a compatibility into a matrix of OPC in addition to have a good xerographic property as a matter of course. A chemical stability of PNQ was designed by a substitution of 2- and 3- positions of naphthoquinone which were the sites of a nucleophilic reaction, and a difference of these substituents made the compatibility improved. To perform this molecular design, 2-phenyl-1, 3-indandione (PID) was selected as a raw material, and PNQ was derived from PID having carbonyl group in 2- position via a ring expansion and an oxidation. Xerographic properties of PNQ was examined as a sensitizer of a single-layer OPC for positive charging with various xerographic measurements and it has been recognized that PNQ was useful as a sensitizer of a single-layer OPC and it was indicated that the sensitization mechanism depended on the sensitization of charge generation efficiency as well as the improvement of an electron transport ability of a single-layer OPC.
