Derivatives of Phenyl Pyrimidine and of the Different Donor Moieties as Emitters for OLEDs.

Two derivatives of phenyl pyrimidine as acceptor unit and triphenylamino or 4,4'-dimethoxytriphenylamino donor groups were designed and synthesized as emitters for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) aiming to utilize triplet excitons in the electroluminescence. Thermogravimetric analysis revealed high thermal stability of the compounds with 5% weight loss temperatures of 397 and 438 °C. The theoretical estimations and photophysical data show the contributions of local excited and charge transfer states into emission.

Synthesis and properties of quinazoline-based versatile exciplex-forming compounds.

Three compounds, bearing a quinazoline unit as the acceptor core and carbazole, dimethyldihydroacridine, or phenothiazine donor moieties, were designed and synthesized in two steps including a facile copper-catalyzed cyclization and a nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction. The photophysical properties of the compounds, based on theoretical calculations and experimental measurements, as well as the electrochemical and thermal properties, are discussed. The synthesized compounds form glasses with glass-transition temperatures ranging from 116 °C to 123 °C.

Synthesis and Performance in OLEDs of Selenium-Containing Phosphorescent Emitters with Red Emission Color Deeper Than the Corresponding NTSC Standard.

The synthesis of new iridium(III) complexes containing a 2-(benzo[]selenophen-2-yl)pyridine ligand is reported along with their photophysical, thermal, electrochemical and electroluminescent properties. These complexes are characterized by deep red phosphorescence with photoluminescence quantum yields exceeding 31% in the solid state. Solid layers of the complexes were characterized by ionization potentials of 5.
