There are a few compounds that can be synthesized that exhibit chemiluminescence. I can't recall tham off the top of my head (I'm an Analytical Chemist, not an Organic Chemist). In science shows/demonstrations for kids, a lot of times, they will use indicators in acids and bases to evoke a color change. The cool thing about those is that 2 colorless solutions are mixed together (usually phenolpthalein is used as the indicator, which gives a pink final color) to get that colored solution.

When my job here ends, I think it would be cool to get into forensic chemistry. They do some cool stuff and use some cool technology.
