The invention relates to a bridged dipyrene-3,4,6,7-12, 13, 15, 16-octcarboxylic acid tetraimide compound containing sulphur atoms or
selenium atoms and a preparation method thereof. 1,6, 7,12-tetrahalogenated
pyrene-3,4-9,10-tetracarboxylic acid
diimide compound or 1,9,10,18-tetrahalogenated dipyrene-3,4,6,7-12, 13, 15, 16-octcarboxylic acid tetraimide compound,
sodium sulfide or
sodium selenide, a catalyst, an
amino acid ligand and inorganic base are mixed; then an
organic solvent is added; the reaction is carried out under the protection of
inert gas; the product is dissolved in the
solvent, is washed in
sodium chloride aqueous solution, and is dried and filtrated; then the
solvent is distilled to
dryness; and the bridged dipyrene-3,4,6,7-12, 13, 15, 16-octcarboxylic acid tetraimide compound containing sulphur atoms or
selenium atoms in the
lateral position showed by formula(I) or (II) is obtained through
column chromatography separation. The yield after purification is 10 to 40 percent.
