4-(Dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-(4-dimethylaminostyryl)-4H-pyran (DCM) derivatives were synthesized by Knoevenagel condensation. They are red-emitting materials for OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) composed of electron donor of aminostyryl groups and electron acceptor of two cyano(nitrile)groups in a conjugated structure. The structural properties of reaction products were analyzed by FT-IR and $^1H-NMR$ spectroscopy. The thermal stabilities and reactivities were measured by melting points and yields. The UV-visible and PL properties can be determined by exitation and emission spectra, respectively.
