[0036] Compound (1) of the present invention is a compound that absorbs violet to indigo light around 430 nm. Specifically, it is preferable that the absorption maximum wavelength (λmax) is 420 to 440 nm. Such a compound can be preferably used, for example, in articles intended to reduce blue light. When the absorption maximum wavelength is 420 to 440 nm and the rise on the long-wavelength side of the absorption spectrum is steep, it is possible to efficiently absorb violet to indigo light while transmitting blue light. Such a compound is suitable for optical filters and the like. The absorption maximum wavelength of compound (1) of the present invention is more preferably 425 to 438 nm, and even more preferably 427 to 436 nm. The absorption maximum wavelength can be determined as the wavelength of the absorption maximum peak obtained by measuring the absorption spectrum of a chloroform solution of the compound with an ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer.

[0037] Compound (1) of the present invention exhibits a steep rise in the absorption peak on the longer wavelength side. An indicator of a steep rise in the absorption peak on the longer wavelength side is a small ratio (100 × HWHM / FWHM) of the ratio of the full width at half maximum (HWHM) of the absorption peak on the longer wavelength side to the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the absorption peak. In this specification, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) is the difference (nm) in wavelengths between two points at an absorption peak where the absorbance is half the value of the absorption maximum wavelength (λmax). The full width at half maximum (FWHM) is calculated using the following formula. Full width at half maximum (FWHM) = λ H1 / 2 -λ S1 / 2 In the above formula, λ H1 / 2 The absorbance at that wavelength is half the absorbance at λmax, and λ H1 / 2 > Represents the wavelength at which λmax occurs. S1 / 2 The absorbance at that wavelength is half the absorbance at λmax, and λmax > λ S1 / 2 This represents the wavelength at which absorption is maximum. λmax is the absorption maximum wavelength in chloroform solution between 300 and 800 nm.

[0038] In this specification, the half width at half maximum (HWHM) on the longer wavelength side of the absorption peak is defined as the wavelength (λ) at which the absorbance is halved on the longer wavelength side of the absorption maximum wavelength of the absorption spectrum. H1 / 2 This refers to the distance (nm) between the wavelength and the maximum absorption wavelength, and can be calculated using the following formula. The full width at half maximum (HWHM) on the long wavelength side is λ H1 / 2 -λmax In the above formula, λ max represents the absorption maximum wavelength in the chloroform solution, λ H1 / 2 The absorbance at that wavelength is half the absorbance at λmax, and λ H1 / 2 > Represents the wavelength at which λmax occurs.

[0039] The smaller the ratio of the full width at half maximum (HWHM) of the absorption peak on the longer wavelength side (100 × HWHM / FWHM) to the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the absorption peak, the steeper the rise of the absorption peak on the longer wavelength side. As an indicator of a steep rise of the absorption peak on the longer wavelength side, compound (1) of the present invention preferably has the above ratio (100 × HWHM / FWHM) of 30 or less, and more preferably 28 or less. Compounds having the absorption spectrum described above have a steep rise on the longer wavelength side of the absorption peak, allowing light on the longer wavelength side of the absorption peak to pass through while efficiently absorbing light at wavelengths near the absorption peak. Such compounds are suitable for optical filters and the like. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) and the long-wavelength side FWHM can be determined from the absorption maximum peak obtained by measuring the absorption spectrum of a chloroform solution of the compound with an ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer.

[0040] The compound (1) of the present invention preferably has little effect on the transmittance of blue light. As an indicator of having little effect on the transmittance of blue light, the relative value of the absorbance at 460 nm, when the absorbance at the absorption maximum wavelength (λmax) is set to 100, is preferably, for example, 5 or less, more preferably 4 or less, even more preferably 3 or less, and particularly preferably 2 or less. When the absorption maximum wavelength is around 430 nm, if the relative value of the absorbance at 460 nm, when the absorbance at the absorption maximum wavelength is set to 100, is, for example, 5 or less, it will not easily hinder the transmission of blue light. By using such a compound, it is possible to manufacture an optical filter that can absorb wavelengths shorter than blue without impairing the transmittance of blue light. By cutting out light around 430 nm without impairing the transmittance of blue light, effects such as improved anti-glare and anti-reflection of displays can be expected. The relative absorbance at 460 nm, with the absorbance at the absorption maximum wavelength set to 100, can be determined from the absorption maximum peak obtained by measuring the absorption spectrum of a chloroform solution of the compound using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer.

[0041] Compound (1) of the present invention has good heat resistance and light resistance. The thermal decomposition temperature of compound (1) is preferably 205°C or higher, more preferably 210°C or higher, for example, even more preferably 250-400°C, and particularly preferably 300-400°C.

Light resistance can be evaluated by the method described in the examples.

More preferably, the solubility in organic solvents at 20°C is within this range. Having solubility in organic solvents within this range is preferable because it allows for good manufacturability when compound (1) of the present invention is used, for example, in the manufacture of optical filters.

[0110] The compounds obtained in the examples and comparative examples were evaluated as follows. <Spectroscopic Characteristics Test> Measuring equipment: JASCO Corporation, UV-visible spectrophotometer V-560 (1) Absorption maximum wavelength and full width at half maximum The absorption spectra of the compounds obtained in the examples and comparative examples were measured in chloroform, and the absorption maximum wavelength (λmax), the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the absorption maximum peak, and the full width at long wavelengths (HWHM) were determined. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) was calculated using the following formula (I). FWHM(nm) = λ H1 / 2 -λ S1 / 2 Equation (I) (In the above formula (I), λ H1 / 2 The absorbance at that wavelength is half the absorbance at λmax, and λ H1 / 2 > Represents the wavelength at which λmax occurs. S1 / 2 The absorbance at that wavelength is half the absorbance at λmax, and λmax > λ S1 / 2 This represents the wavelength at which absorption is maximum. λmax is the absorption maximum wavelength in chloroform solution between 300 and 800 nm.

[0111] The full width at half maximum (HWHM) on the longer wavelength side is calculated by comparing the absorption maximum wavelength (λmax) with the wavelength at which the absorbance is halved on the longer wavelength side of the absorption maximum wavelength in the absorption spectrum (λ H1 / 2 ) was obtained using the following formula (II). HWHM(nm) = λ H1 / 2 -λmax Formula (II) (In the above equation (II), λmax represents the absorption maximum wavelength in the chloroform solution at 300-800 nm, λ H1 / 2 The absorbance at that wavelength is half the absorbance at λmax, and λ H1 / 2 (This represents the wavelength at which λmax occurs.)

[0112] As an indicator of the steep rise of the absorption peak on the longer wavelength side, the ratio of the long-wavelength full width at half maximum (HWHM) to the total full width at half maximum (FWHM) (100 × HWHM / FWHM) was calculated. The value of the above ratio (100 × HWHM / FWHM) was evaluated according to the following criteria. (Evaluation criteria: 100 × HWHM / FWHM) A: 100 × HWHM / FWHM is 30 or less B: 100 × HWHM / FWHM is greater than 30 and less than or equal to 35 C:100×HWHM / FWHM exceeds 35 Table 4 shows the full width at half maximum (FWHM), the full width at long wavelength (HWHM), the (100 × HWHM / FWHM) values, and the evaluation according to the above criteria for the compounds obtained in the examples and comparative examples.

[0113] (2) Absorbance at 460 nm From the absorption spectrum, the relative absorbance at 460 nm was determined, with the absorbance at the absorption maximum wavelength (λmax) set to 100. The relative absorbance at 460 nm was evaluated according to the following criteria. (Evaluation criteria for absorbance at 460 nm) A: Relative intensity is 5 or less B: Relative intensity greater than 5 and less than or equal to 10 C: Relative intensity exceeds 10 Table 4 shows the relative absorbance values ​​at 460 nm and their evaluations based on the above criteria.

[0114] [Table 4]

[0115] Compounds 1-1 to 1-6 had a ratio of the full width at half maximum (HWHM) on the longer wavelength side (HWHM) to the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 30 or less. This indicates that compounds 1-1 to 1-6 have a steep rise in the absorption peak on the longer wavelength side. Furthermore, the relative absorbance value at 460 nm for compounds 1-1 to 1-6 was 5 or less. The comparative example compounds had a higher relative absorbance value at 460 nm than the example compounds. When the absorption maximum wavelength is around 430 nm, a relatively large absorbance at 460 nm results in a gradual change from the peak showing the absorption maximum to the baseline on the longer wavelength side of the absorption maximum wavelength, increasing the portion of the absorption spectrum that overlaps with blue light.

[0116] <Heat resistance> For the compounds obtained in the examples and comparative examples, the weight loss due to thermal decomposition was measured using a Shimadzu Corporation TGA-50 thermogravimetric analyzer under the following measurement conditions, and the temperature at which a 1% weight loss from the initial weight was observed was defined as the decomposition start temperature. (Measurement conditions) Measurements were taken under the following conditions: sample volume 10 mg, heating rate 10°C / min (maximum temperature reached 500°C), nitrogen atmosphere, and flow rate 20 mL / min. Heat resistance was evaluated based on the decomposition initiation temperature according to the following criteria. The results are shown in Table 5. A: Above 300℃ B: 270℃ or higher, but less than 300℃ C: Below 270℃

[0117] <Lightfastness Test> The compounds obtained in the examples and comparative examples were subjected to lightfastness tests. Ten mg of each compound was dissolved in 5 mL of an 8 wt% polymethacrylate toluene solution, and the mixture was applied to a glass substrate by spin coating and dried to produce a thin film with a thickness of 1.5 μm. The fabricated thin film was continuously irradiated with light from a xenon lamp (142 klux) for 24 hours. The transmittance of the thin film before irradiation (0 hours) and after irradiation was measured using a spectrophotometer, and the remaining compound percentage was measured according to the following formula (III). Compound retention rate (%) = {(1-T1) / (1-T0)} × 100 (III) [However, T0 is the transmittance before xenon lamp irradiation, and T1 is the transmittance after xenon lamp irradiation; both T0 and T1 are between 0 and 1.] Note that "transmittance" refers to the transmittance at the absorption maximum wavelength of each compound. The higher the retention rate, the less the compound is decomposed by light, indicating higher lightfastness. Lightfastness was evaluated according to the following criteria. The results are shown in Table 5. A: Compound retention rate of 85% or more B: Compound retention rate is 75% or more, but less than 85%. C: Compound retention rate is 65% or more, but less than 75%. D: Compound retention rate is less than 65% Measuring equipment: JASCO Corporation, UV-visible spectrophotometer V-570

[0118] [Table 5]

[0119] <Solubility Test> For some of the compounds obtained in the examples, the solubility (mass%) in the solvent at 20°C was measured by the following method. The solvents used were tetrahydrofuran (THF), propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate (PGMEA), or methyl ethyl ketone (MEK). The compound was weighed into a glass test tube, mixed with a solvent, and dissolved by stirring at 20°C. The state of the solution was visually observed, and the soluble mass concentration was evaluated. The results are shown in Table 6. The solvent used for the solubility evaluation is also shown in Table 6. S: Dissolves at a concentration of 5.0% by mass or more. A: Dissolves at a concentration of 2.0% by mass or more and less than 5.0% by mass. B: Dissolves at a concentration of 1.0% by mass or more and less than 2.0% by mass. C: Only less than 1.0% by mass dissolves.
