Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of organic materials, and in particular, to an organic compound, an electronic component, and an electronic device including the same. Background Art
[0002] An organic electroluminescent device, also known as an organic light-emitting diode, refers to the phenomenon that an organic light-emitting material emits light under the action of an electric field and is excited by an electric current. It is a process of converting electrical energy into light energy. Compared with inorganic light-emitting materials, an organic electroluminescent diode (OLED) has the advantages of active light emission, a large optical path range, a low driving voltage, high brightness, high efficiency, low energy consumption, and a simple manufacturing process. Due to these advantages, organic light-emitting materials and devices have become one of the very popular research topics in the scientific community and the industrial community.
[0003] An organic electroluminescent device generally includes an anode, a hole transport layer, an electroluminescent layer as an energy conversion layer, an electron transport layer, and a cathode that are sequentially stacked. When a voltage is applied between the anode and the cathode, an electric field is generated between the two electrodes. Under the action of the electric field, electrons on the cathode side move towards the electroluminescent layer, and holes on the anode side also move towards the light-emitting layer. The electrons and holes combine in the electroluminescent layer to form excitons. The excitons are in an excited state and release energy outward, thereby causing the electroluminescent layer to emit light externally.
[0004] In the prior art, CN110662750A, WO2020152043A1, etc. disclose luminescent layer materials that can be prepared in organic electroluminescent devices. However, it is still necessary to continue researching and developing new materials to further improve the performance of electronic components.
[0005] The above information in the background art part of the application is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present application. Therefore, it may include information that does not constitute the prior art known to those of ordinary skill in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of the present application is to provide an organic compound, an electronic component, and an electronic device including the same. The organic compound is used in an organic electroluminescent device and can improve the performance of the device.
[0007] To achieve the above invention purpose, the present application adopts the following technical solutions:
[0008] The first aspect of the present application provides an organic compound, whose structure is shown in Chemical Formula 1:
[0009]
[0010] Among them, A1, A2, A3, and A4 are the same or different, and each independently selected from a benzene ring, a pyridine ring, a fused aromatic ring having 10 to 18 ring carbon atoms, or a fused heteroaromatic ring having 7 to 12 ring carbon atoms;
[0011] R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 are the same or different, and each independently selected from hydrogen, deuterium, a halogen group, a cyano group, an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl group having 3 to 10 carbon atoms, a haloalkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a deuterated alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, an arylamino group having 12 to 24 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a trialkylsilyl group having 3 to 12 carbon atoms, a triphenylsilyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group having 6 to 12 carbon atoms, a heteroaryl group having 3 to 15 carbon atoms;
[0012] The substituents in R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 are the same or different, and each independently selected from deuterium, a halogen group, a cyano group, an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms;
[0013] n1 to n6 are represented by n t R1 to R6 are represented by R t t is a variable representing any integer from 1 to 6, n t represents the number of substituents R t When t is 1, 2, 3, or 4, n t is selected from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7; when t is 5, n t is selected from 1, 2, 3, 4; when t is 6, n t is selected from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5; when n t is greater than 1, any two R t are the same or different;
[0014] L is selected from a single bond or a substituted or unsubstituted arylene group having 6 to 12 carbon atoms;

[0018] The organic compound of the present application has a planar structure formed by the condensation of nitrogen and boron as linking groups. The alternating conjugation and strong rigidity of this planar structure can cause a high excited-state oscillator strength. In addition, the nitrogen in this planar structure is connected to the meta-position of the same benzene as the fluorene or xanthene group, which can adjust the intermolecular force and reduce the concentration quenching effect on the basis of maintaining the original molecular conjugation and oscillator strength of this structure, effectively improving the current efficiency of the device. At the same time, due to the large spatial volume and excellent chemical stability of the fluorene-based or xanthene-based group, it can effectively protect the relatively highly active light-emitting center (i.e., this planar structure), making the molecule have good thermal stability and improving the lifetime of the device. Therefore, using the organic compound of the present application as the blue light-emitting guest material in the light-emitting layer of an organic electroluminescent device can effectively improve the efficiency and lifetime of the device.
[0019] The second aspect of the present application provides an electronic component, including an anode and a cathode arranged opposite to each other, and a functional layer disposed between the anode and the cathode; the functional layer contains the organic compound described in the first aspect.

It can either mean that among different groups, the specific options expressed between the same symbols do not affect each other, or it can mean that within the same group, the specific options expressed between the same symbols do not affect each other.

[0044] In the present application, a term such as "substituted or unsubstituted" means that the functional group described after this term may or may not have a substituent (hereinafter, for the sake of convenience of description, the substituent is collectively referred to as Rc). For example, "substituted or unsubstituted aryl" means an aryl having a substituent Rc or an unsubstituted aryl.
