Description

[0001] This invention is a divisional application. The application number of the parent application is 201811290088.X, the application date is October 31, 2018, and the name of the invention is “Phenylbiphenylpyrimidine compounds and organic electroluminescent devices thereof”. Technical Field

[0002] The invention relates to a material for an organic electroluminescent device and an organic electroluminescent device using the material. Background Art

[0003] Recently, organic electroluminescent devices (OLEDs) have become commercially attractive in high-density pixel displays with high luminous efficiency due to their advantages such as long life, high efficiency, low driving voltage, wide color gamut and low cost. In order to meet the application of organic electroluminescent devices, special emphasis is placed on the development of novel organic materials.

[0004] A typical OLED has at least one organic emissive layer sandwiched between an anode and a cathode. When an electric current is applied, the anode injects holes and the cathode injects electrons into the one or more organic emissive layers, and the injected holes and electrons each migrate to the opposite charged electrode. When electrons and holes are confined to the same molecule, an "exciton" is formed, which has a localized electron-hole pair in an excited energy state, and the exciton relaxes to emit light through a luminescence mechanism. In order to improve the charge transport capability and luminescence efficiency of such devices, one or more additional layers are combined with the light-emitting layer, such as an electron transport layer and / or a hole transport layer, or an electron blocking layer and / or a hole blocking layer. In the literature, it has been well documented to dope another guest material with the host material to improve device performance and adjust color. US 4769292, US 5844363, US 5707745, US 6596415 and US 6465115, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety, describe several OLED materials and device configurations. Yulei Optoelectronics Technology has applied for TW I582081 in 2016 and obtained it in 2017. The electron transport material introduced in this patent has certain novelty and effect, and the effect of this new patent application is better than that of the previous case.

[0005] The reasons for manufacturing an OLED with a multi-layer thin film structure include stabilizing the interface between the electrodes and the organic layers and matching the organic materials. In organic materials, the mobility of electrons and holes is significantly different. If appropriate hole transport and electron transport layers are used, holes and electrons can be effectively transported to the emission layer, so that the density of electrons and holes in the emission layer is balanced, increasing the luminous efficiency. Proper combination of the above-mentioned organic layers can improve the efficiency and life of the device. However, it is still difficult to find organic materials that meet the needs of all practical display applications, especially organic materials used in automotive displays or lighting sources, which need to have the properties of high temperature resistance and long life. Most common organic materials are only temperature resistant to 100°C.

After heating and stirring until it is completely dissolved, a column containing silica is added for chromatography purification, and concentrated until a white solid is precipitated. After washing with ethyl acetate, filtering and drying, a white solid is obtained, which is the product.

[0070] The present invention also provides an organic electroluminescent device, comprising: a cathode; an anode; and an organic layer between the cathode and the anode, wherein the organic layer comprises the phenylbiphenylpyrimidine compound having the structure of formula (I) of the present invention.

[0071] The organic layer of the organic electroluminescent device of the present invention may be an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, a light-emitting layer, a hole blocking layer or an electron blocking layer, and in addition to the organic layer, the organic electroluminescent device may also include at least one layer selected from the group consisting of an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, a light-emitting layer, a hole blocking layer and an electron blocking layer, which is different from the organic layer, wherein the light-emitting layer further includes a fluorescent or phosphorescent dopant, and a host material corresponding to the fluorescent or phosphorescent dopant, respectively.

[0073] In another specific embodiment, the electron transport layer further comprises an N-type electrically conductive dopant, wherein the N-type electrically conductive dopant produces a chelation reaction with the phenylbiphenylpyrimidine compound having the structure of formula (I) of the present invention, so that electrons can be more easily injected from the cathode into the electron transport layer, thereby solving the problems of phase separation and formation of quenching centers caused by poor compatibility between metal and electron transport host materials in the prior art, and effectively improving the electron transport efficiency of the electron transport layer.

[0074] The N-type electrically conductive dopant used in the electron transport layer may be an organic alkali metal / alkaline earth metal nitrate, carbonate, phosphate or quinoline salt, such as lithium carbonate, lithium quinolate (Liq), lithium azide, rubidium carbonate, silver nitrate, barium nitrate, magnesium nitrate, zinc nitrate, cesium nitrate, cesium carbonate, cesium fluoride, cesium azide, etc. Among them, lithium quinoline is particularly preferred as the N-type electrically conductive dopant.

[0077] In another specific embodiment, the hole transport layer of the stacked organic layer uses a phenylbiphenylpyrimidine compound having a structure of formula (I) as a single material, and the electron transport layer of the stacked organic layer uses a phenylbiphenylpyrimidine compound having a structure of formula (I) combined with an N-type electrical conductive dopant.

[0078] The structure of the organic electroluminescent device of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0079] Figure 11 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a specific embodiment of an organic electroluminescent device of the present invention. The organic electroluminescent device 100 comprises a substrate 110, an anode 120, a hole injection layer 130, a hole transport layer 140, a light emitting layer 150, an electron transport layer 160, an electron injection layer 170 and a cathode 180. The organic electroluminescent device 100 can be manufactured by sequentially depositing the above layers.

[0080] Figure 2 2 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of another specific embodiment of the organic electroluminescent device of the present invention. The organic electroluminescent device 200 comprises a substrate 210, an anode 220, a hole injection layer 230, a hole transport layer 240, an electron blocking layer 245, a light emitting layer 250, an electron transport layer 260, an electron injection layer 270 and a cathode 280, Figure 1 The difference is that the electron blocking layer 245 is disposed between the hole transport layer 240 and the light emitting layer 250 .

[0081] Figure 3 3 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of another specific embodiment of the organic electroluminescent device of the present invention.

[0083] The materials of the hole injection layer, hole transport layer, electron blocking layer, hole blocking layer, electron blocking layer, and electron injection layer can be selected from commonly used materials. For example, the electron transport material forming the electron transport layer is different from the material of the light-emitting layer, and it has hole transport properties, thereby facilitating the migration of holes in the electron transport layer and preventing carrier accumulation caused by the dissociation energy difference between the light-emitting layer and the electron transport layer.

[0084] The phenyl biphenyl pyrimidine compound of the formula (I) of the present invention is used for an electron transport layer or a hole blocking layer. T ), extremely low highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy level and good carrier mobility make it difficult for holes in the light-emitting layer to be lost, and at the same time, electrons are effectively transferred to the light-emitting layer, which helps to balance the density of electrons and holes in the light-emitting layer, increase the luminous efficiency and driving stability.
