## Abstract

Trioxane derivatives represented by the formula (I): ##STR1## wherein A and RA are the same with or different from each other, and represent a substituted or unsubstituted aliphatic hydrocarbon group, respectively, or represent R.sub.1 --X.sub.1 --or R.sub.2 --X.sub.2 --in which X.sub.1 and X.sub.2 represent independently a divalent organic residue, and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 represent independently carboxyl group, amino group, hydroxyl group or mercapto group, and Z represents hydrogen atom, halogen atom, methyl group, ethyl group or propyl group, or carboxyl, amino, hydroxyl or mercapto group through a divalent organic residue, and process for the preparation thereof, as well as method for chemiluminescence comprising mixing the trioxane derivatives and a base.

## Claims

### Claim 1

Trioxane derivatives represented by the formula (1): ##STR25## wherein RA is methyl or R.sub.2 --X.sub.2 --, and wherein X.sub.1 and X.sub.2 represent independently --(CH.sub.2).sub.m --, --(CH.sub.2).sub.m --(O--Z).sub.n --or ##STR26## where m and n represent an integer of from 1-10 and Z represents a lower alkylene group, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 represent independently carboxyl, amino, hydroxyl or mercapto; and R.sub.3 represents hydrogen or methyl.

### Claim 2

Trioxane derivatives represented by the formula (2): ##STR27## wherein X represents --(CH.sub.2).sub.m --, --(CH.sub.2).sub.m --(O--Z).sub.n --or ##STR28## where m and n represent an integer of from 1-10 and Z represents a lower alkylene group, and R represents carboxyl, amino, hydroxyl or mercapto.

### Claim 3

A method for producing chemiluminescence, wherein the chemiluminescence is effected by mixing trioxane derivative represented by the formula (1): ##STR29## wherein RA is methyl or R.sub.2 --X.sub.2 --, and wherein X.sub.1 and X.sub.2 represent independently --(CH.sub.2).sub.m --, --(CH.sub.2).sub.m --(O--Z).sub.n --or ##STR30## where m and n represent an integer of from 1-10 and Z represents a lower alkylene, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 represent independently carboxyl, amino, hydroxyl or mercapto; and R.sub.3 represents hydrogenor methyl; and a base.

### Claim 4

A method for producing chemiluminescence, wherein the chemiluminescence is effected by mixing trioxane derivative represented by the formula (2): ##STR31## wherein X represents --(CH.sub.2).sub.m --, --(CH.sub.2).sub.m --(O--Z).sub.n --or ##STR32## where m and n represent an integer of from 1-10 and Z represents a lower alkylene group, and R represents carboxyl, amino, hydroxdyl or mercapto; and R represents carboxyl, amino, hydroxyl or mercapto; and a base.
