The invention provides condensed polycyclic .pi.-conjugated organic
materials and manufacturing methods for the materials. A metal reducing
agent is reacted with a straight-chain, triple bond-containing
hydrocarbon (aryl acetylene compound, phenyl acetylene compound), the
hydrocarbon being a benzene ring with an organic silicon as a
substituent, so as to allow an intramolecular reductive cyclization
reaction to proceed between the silicon and the triple-bond carbon. The
reaction produces condensed polycyclic .pi.-conjugated organic materials
of the invention. The invention provides light-emitting materials
applicable for organic electroluminescent devices, condensed polycyclic
.pi.-conjugated organic materials applicable for charge transport
materials, their intermediate products, and a manufacture method for
condensed polycyclic .pi.-conjugated organic materials.
