A logical construction of monomeric subunits armed with the carbonyl functionality allowing post-synthetic reactivity leads to the convergent formation of π-extended defected units activated with BBr. The kinetic or thermodynamic control entraps either the pyrido[2,3-]quinoline or the 4,7-phenanthroline motifs doped with boron(III), which deeply modulates the optical properties.

-directed 2-fold bromoboration reactions of diynes with BBr have been developed, allowing the access to novel internally BN-doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from readily available precursors under mild conditions. Computational investigations identified three potential reaction mechanisms, each involving either BBr or [BBr], with low activation barriers ( < 16 kcal/mol) for all pathways. The resulting brominated products can be further functionalized through various cross-coupling protocols, enabling the synthesis of highly luminescent emitters with quantum yield exceeding 90.

Multiple resonance (MR) boron-nitrogen doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (BN-PAHs) have shown compelling thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF), surpassing those of their hydrocarbon analogues. However, the structural variety of π-extended BN-PAHs remains narrow. In this study, we synthesized three double helical BN-doped nanographenes (BN-NGs), 2 a-2 c, and three heptagon-embedded BN-NGs, 1 a-1 c, by π-extension of the MR core.

Replacing the C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bond with an isoelectronic BN unit is an effective strategy to tune the optoelectronic properties of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). However, precise control of the BN orientations in large PAH systems is still a synthetic challenge. Herein, we demonstrate a facile approach for the synthesis of BN embedded perylene diimide (PDI) nanoribbons, and the polarization orientations of the BN unit were precisely regulated in the two PDI trimers.

1,4-BN-doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have emerged as very promising emitters in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) due to their narrowband emission spectra that may find application in high-definition displays. While considerable research has focused on investigating the properties of these materials, less attention has been placed on their synthetic methodology. Here we developed an efficient synthetic method for 1,4-BN-doped PAHs, which enables sustainable production of narrowband organic emitting materials.

Two unprecedented fluorescent nucleosides that feature BN-doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are presented. One of them, having a BN-modified phenanthrene moiety incorporated, shows blue fluorescence but suffers from poor stability under aqueous conditions. The other nucleoside comprises an internally BN-doped pyrene as the chromophore.
