Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of organic electroluminescent materials, and specifically discloses a class of red and near-infrared luminescent materials with thermally activated delayed fluorescence characteristics and applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, red and near-infrared luminescent materials have made significant progress in various fields, including bioimaging, night vision devices, telecommunications, and catalytic organic reactions. For example, near-infrared (NIR) is beneficial for biomedicine and biosensing because biological tissue has weak absorption and autofluorescence in the NIR region. In addition, the 700-1000nm wavelength is contained in the "semi-transparent window" of biological tissue. Therefore, based on blood circulation enhancement or photoactivation of certain substances, near-infrared light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have the potential to be integrated into photodynamic therapy, near-infrared photomedicine, and bioimaging applications. Due to the penetration and independent transmission of infrared light, it exhibits anti-interference, security, high speed, and invisible characteristics, which make near-infrared devices suitable for integration into space optical communication applications. In addition, NIR LEDs are also used in biometrics, such as finger vein and iris recognition, as well as night-vision readable displays, chiral sensing, bioresponsive imaging, asymmetric synthesis, and chiral materials, and have broad application prospects.

[0003] In addition to the red applications mentioned above, CP-PLEDs (CPELs) have seen rapid development. However, due to a theoretical internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of 25%, conventional fluorescent materials cannot achieve satisfactory performance in OLED devices. To achieve more efficient EL, phosphorescent complexes with a theoretical IQE of 100% are used as the luminescent materials of the corresponding devices. However, phosphorescent materials still face problems such as high cost, environmental issues, and unstable coordination bonds.

[0004] As the third generation of light-emitting materials, thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emission materials with pure organic molecular structures can achieve the same 100% theoretical IQE as phosphorescent emission materials and are considered to be promising pure organic materials for the manufacture of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Unlike traditional fluorescent emission materials, TADF emission materials always have a sufficiently small singlet-triplet energy gap (ΔE) due to the sufficient separation of the distribution of the highest occupied molecular orbitals (HOMOs) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (LUMOs). ST ), which is less than 0.3 eV. Therefore, triplet excitons can be fully utilized through upconversion via the reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) process without the need for additional energy supply, thus improving the exciton utilization rate.

[0005] TADF luminescent materials can achieve 100% internal quantum efficiency like phosphorescent materials and can easily overcome the disadvantages of phosphorescent materials such as high cost, need for rare materials and environmental sustainability. The luminescent materials used in TADF OLEDs play a key role in controlling important device parameters such as efficiency, lifetime and color purity of the device. In the design of efficient TADF luminescent materials, it is necessary to balance two conflicting requirements, namely high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and a small energy gap (ΔE) between the lowest singlet (S1) and triplet (T1) excited states. ST ). Although highly efficient blue and green TADF OLEDs with external quantum efficiencies (EQEs) exceeding 30% have been recently reported, the design of efficient pure red emitters is challenging due to the limitations of the energy gap law. In particular, when designing pure red TADF molecules with emission wavelengths above 600nm, according to the energy gap law, the internal conversion (IC) (non-radiative decay) of singlet excitons competes with radiative decay. An effective design strategy to reduce the impact of the IC process is to introduce a more rigid molecular structure. Rigid donor-acceptor molecular design can be used to minimize non-radiative loss processes caused by the vibration and rotational motion of flexible structures, thereby realizing efficient long-wavelength TADF emitters. Several high-EQE orange and red TADF OLEDs have been reported to be fabricated using TADF emitters with such highly planar and rigid acceptors. However, due to the large dihedral angle between the donor and acceptor units in the red TADF emission (600–650nm), its oscillator strength (f) value is reduced, resulting in a lower PLQY and therefore a lower EQE value. In addition, the more rigid and planar aromatic backbones of red TADF emitters favor the formation of π-π stacking, but they induce severe exciton quenching and thus the efficiency drops drastically. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In order to further reduce ΔE ST , in order to obtain more efficient TADF materials. The present invention uses pyrene as the conjugated skeleton center, constructs a type of red and near-infrared materials with thermally activated delayed fluorescence properties, using pyrazine as an asymmetric acceptor, tert-butyltriphenylamine and dendritic tert-butyltriphenylamine as electron donors, and synthesizes them through oxidation, NBS bromination, Suzuki-Miyaura, and Schiff base condensation reactions. The relationship between molecular structure and performance was explored in detail, and how to construct an asymmetric acceptor with strong electron-withdrawing ability as the acceptor core of TADF was systematically studied; the influence of donors with different electron-donating abilities on the overall molecular performance was studied; it has important significance for the construction of new red and near-infrared luminescent materials.

[0007] Another object of the present invention is to provide a novel asymmetric acceptor red and near-infrared luminescent material for use as a light-emitting layer material for an organic electroluminescent diode, thereby obtaining a solution-processed organic electroluminescent device with excellent luminescent properties.

[0008] To achieve the above technical objectives, the present invention synthesized a class of red and near-infrared luminescent materials with thermally activated delayed fluorescence properties, using pyrene as the conjugated backbone center, a pyrazine-based asymmetric acceptor, and tert-butyltriphenylamine or dendritic tert-butyltriphenylamine as the electron donor.

[0010] Formula 1. Molecular structure

[0011] A pyrazine-based asymmetric acceptor was constructed with pyrene as the conjugated backbone, and tert-butyltriphenylamine or a dendrimer-type tert-butyltriphenylamine as the electron donor. The asymmetric acceptor core provides both strong electron-withdrawing capacity and partially inert groups, enhancing solubility while inhibiting planar stacking of the acceptor segments. Based on this acceptor structure, two TADF molecules were designed, and their photophysical and structural relationships, as well as their applications, were investigated.

[0012] The red and near-infrared luminescent materials with thermally activated delayed fluorescence properties are used as doping materials for the luminescent layer of an organic light-emitting diode, wherein the main material of the luminescent layer is 26DCzPPy or DtBuCzB.

[0016] 3. The effects of different electron-donating donors on the overall molecular performance were systematically studied, which is of great significance for the construction of new red and near-infrared luminescent materials.

[0017] The advantages of the present invention are:

[0018] A class of red-emitting materials with thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) properties has been constructed and their applications. Using pyrene as the conjugated backbone, a pyrazine-based asymmetric acceptor was constructed, and tert-butyltriphenylamine or dendrimer-type tert-butyltriphenylamine was used as the electron donor. Through oxidation, NBS bromination, Suzuki-Miyaura, and Schiff base condensation reactions, a class of red and near-infrared luminescent materials with thermally activated delayed fluorescence properties was synthesized. The method of constructing asymmetric acceptors with strong electron-withdrawing ability as the acceptor core of TADF was systematically investigated, and the influence of different electron-donating donors on the overall molecular properties was studied.
