A process for producing brominated acenaphthylene condensates of the formula: <IMAGE> wherein x is 1 or 2, y is an integer from 1 to 6 and n is 1 or more, from elementary units of the following formulas: <IMAGE> and/or <IMAGE> wherein y is as defined above, comprising, (A) brominating the side chain of the acenaphthene with 0.2 to 2.0 times as many moles of bromine as acenaphthene, said bromination initiated by ultraviolet radiation or by a radical initiator in a halogenated hydrocarbon solvent, (B) adding a Lewis acid catalyst to the reaction solution of step (A) to promote the condensation of the brominated acenaphthene product of step (A), (C) adding to the reaction solution of step (B) an equimolar or more amount of bromine relative to the amount of acenaphthene starting material, to further brominate and condense the brominated acenaphthene and/or brominated acenaphthene condensates; and (D) dehydrobrominating the brominated acenaphthene condensates.
