A new and convenient synthesis for amino‐phthalimide (1 H ‐isoindole‐1,3(2 H )‐dione) derivatives has been developed starting from an α , β ‐unsaturated ketone. The ketones were reacted with amines to give aromatic amine products. This is the first time that substituted amine groups have been incorporated in aromatic rings. The mechanism of the product formation is rationalized by the 1,2‐addition of amines to ketones. All aromatic compounds exhibited high fluorescence properties at the blue‐green region.
