This application claims priority to Chinese invention patent application No. 202011438483.5 filed on December 11, 2020, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0002] The present invention relates to compounds for organic electronic devices, such as organic light-emitting devices, and more particularly to a compound having a structure of Formula 1, an organic electroluminescent device comprising the compound, and a compound combination comprising the compound. Background Art

[0003] Organic electronic devices include but are not limited to the following categories: organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic field effect transistors (O-FETs), organic light emitting transistors (OLETs), organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs), dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), organic optical detectors, organic photoreceptors, organic field effect devices (OFQDs), light emitting electrochemical cells (LECs), organic laser diodes and organic plasmonic light emitting devices.

[0004] In 1987, Tang and Van Slyke of Eastman Kodak reported a double-layer organic electroluminescent device, which included an arylamine hole transport layer and a tri-8-hydroxyquinoline-aluminum layer as an electron transport layer and a light-emitting layer (Applied Physics Letters, 1987, 51 (12): 913-915). Once a bias voltage is applied to the device, green light is emitted from the device. This invention laid the foundation for the development of modern organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). The most advanced OLEDs can include multiple layers, such as charge injection and transport layers, charge and exciton blocking layers, and one or more light-emitting layers between the cathode and the anode. Since OLEDs are self-luminous solid-state devices, they offer great potential for display and lighting applications. In addition, the inherent properties of organic materials, such as their flexibility, can make them very suitable for special applications, such as on flexible substrates.

[0005] OLEDs can be divided into three different types based on their light emission mechanism. The OLED invented by Tang and van Slyke is a fluorescent OLED. It uses only singlet light emission. The triplet generated in the device is wasted through non-radiative decay channels. Therefore, the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of fluorescent OLEDs is only 25%. This limitation has hindered the commercialization of OLEDs. In 1997, Forrest and Thompson reported phosphorescent OLEDs, which used triplet light emission from heavy metals containing complexes as emitters. Therefore, singlet and triplet states can be harvested, achieving 100% IQE. Due to its high efficiency, the discovery and development of phosphorescent OLEDs directly contributed to the commercialization of active matrix OLEDs (AMOLEDs). Recently, Adachi achieved high efficiency through thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) of organic compounds. These emitters have a small singlet-triplet gap, making it possible for excitons to return from triplet to singlet. In TADF devices, triplet excitons can generate singlet excitons through reverse intersystem crossing, resulting in high IQE.

[0006] OLEDs can also be classified into small molecule and polymer OLEDs based on the form of the material used. Small molecules are any organic or organometallic material that is not a polymer. Small molecules can have a large molecular weight as long as they have a precise structure. Dendrimers with well-defined structures are considered small molecules. Polymer OLEDs include conjugated polymers and non-conjugated polymers with pendant luminescent groups. Small molecule OLEDs can become polymer OLEDs if post-polymerization occurs during the manufacturing process.

[0007] There are various OLED manufacturing methods. Small molecule OLEDs are usually manufactured by vacuum thermal evaporation. Polymer OLEDs are manufactured by solution methods such as spin coating, inkjet printing, and nozzle printing. Small molecule OLEDs can also be manufactured by solution methods if the material can be dissolved or dispersed in a solvent.

[0008] The emission color of OLED can be achieved by the structural design of the luminescent material. OLED can include one luminescent layer or multiple luminescent layers to achieve the desired spectrum. Green, yellow and red OLEDs, phosphorescent materials have been successfully commercialized. Blue phosphorescent devices still have problems such as blue unsaturation, short device life and high operating voltage. Commercial full-color OLED displays usually adopt a hybrid strategy, using blue fluorescence and phosphorescent yellow, or red and green. At present, the efficiency of phosphorescent OLEDs decreases rapidly under high brightness conditions, which is still a problem. In addition, it is expected to have a more saturated emission spectrum, higher efficiency and longer device life.

[0027] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of another organic light-emitting device that may contain the compounds and compound formulations disclosed herein. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] OLEDs can be manufactured on a variety of substrates, such as glass, plastic, and metal. Figure 1 An organic light-emitting device 100 is shown schematically and non-limitingly. The figure is not necessarily drawn to scale, and some layer structures in the figure may be omitted as needed. The device 100 may include a substrate 101, an anode 110, a hole injection layer 120, a hole transport layer 130, an electron blocking layer 140, a light-emitting layer 150, a hole blocking layer 160, an electron transport layer 170, an electron injection layer 180 and a cathode 190. The device 100 can be manufactured by depositing the described layers in sequence. The properties and functions of each layer and exemplary materials are described in more detail in columns 6-10 of U.S. Patent No. 7,279,704 B2, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0029] There are more examples of each of these layers. For example, a flexible and transparent substrate-anode combination is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,844,363, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. An example of a p-doped hole transport layer is m-MTDATA doped with F4-TCNQ at a molar ratio of 50:1, as disclosed in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003 / 0230980, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. An example of a host material is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 6,303,238 to Thompson et al., which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. An example of an n-doped electron transport layer is BPhen doped with Li at a molar ratio of 1:1, as disclosed in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003 / 0230980, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. U.S. Patent Nos. 5,703,436 and 5,707,745, which are incorporated by reference in their entirety, disclose examples of cathodes including composite cathodes having a thin layer of metal such as Mg:Ag with an overlying transparent, conductive, sputter-deposited ITO layer. The principles and use of barrier layers are described in more detail in U.S. Patent No. 6,097,147 and U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003 / 0230980, which are incorporated by reference in their entirety. Examples of injection layers are provided in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2004 / 0174116, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. A description of protective layers can be found in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2004 / 0174116, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.

[0030] The above layered structure is provided by way of non-limiting example. The functions of an OLED can be achieved by combining the various layers described above, or some layers can be omitted entirely. It can also include other layers not explicitly described. Within each layer, a single material or a mixture of multiple materials can be used to achieve optimal performance. Any functional layer can include several sublayers. For example, a light-emitting layer can have two layers of different light-emitting materials to achieve a desired light-emitting spectrum.

[0031] In one embodiment, an OLED may be described as having an "organic layer" disposed between a cathode and an anode. The organic layer may include one or more layers.

[0032] OLED also requires encapsulation layers, such as Figure 2 The organic light emitting device 200 is schematically and non-limitingly shown. Figure 1The difference is that an encapsulation layer 102 may also be included on the cathode 190 to prevent harmful substances from the environment, such as moisture and oxygen. Any material that can provide an encapsulation function can be used as an encapsulation layer, such as glass or an organic-inorganic hybrid layer. The encapsulation layer should be placed directly or indirectly on the outside of the OLED device. Multilayer thin film encapsulation is described in U.S. Patent No. 7,968,146 B2, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0033] Devices manufactured according to embodiments of the present invention can be incorporated into various consumer products having one or more electronic component modules (or units) of the device. Some examples of these consumer products include flat panel displays, monitors, medical monitors, televisions, billboards, lights for indoor or outdoor lighting and / or signaling, heads-up displays, fully or partially transparent displays, flexible displays, smart phones, tablet computers, tablet phones, wearable devices, smart watches, laptop computers, digital cameras, camcorders, viewfinders, micro displays, 3-D displays, vehicle displays, and taillights.

[0034] The materials and structures described herein may also be used in other organic electronic devices listed above.

[0035] As used herein, "top" means farthest from the substrate, while "bottom" means closest to the substrate. Where a first layer is described as being "disposed" "on" a second layer, the first layer is disposed farther from the substrate. Unless it is specified that the first layer is "in contact with" the second layer, other layers may be present between the first and second layers. For example, a cathode may be described as being "disposed" "on" an anode even though various organic layers are present between the cathode and the anode.

[0036] As used herein, "solution processable" means capable of being dissolved, dispersed or transported in and / or deposited from a liquid medium in the form of a solution or suspension.

[0037] A ligand may be referred to as "photoactive" when it is believed that the ligand directly contributes to the photoactive property of the emissive material. A ligand may be referred to as "ancillary" when it is believed that the ligand does not contribute to the photoactive property of the emissive material, but the ancillary ligand may alter the properties of the photoactive ligand.

[0038] It is believed that the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of fluorescent OLEDs can exceed the 25% spin-statistical limit through delayed fluorescence. Delayed fluorescence can generally be divided into two types, namely P-type delayed fluorescence and E-type delayed fluorescence. P-type delayed fluorescence is generated by triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA).

[0039] On the other hand, E-type delayed fluorescence does not rely on the collision of two triplets, but on the conversion between triplet and singlet excited state. Compounds capable of producing E-type delayed fluorescence need to have a very small single-triplet gap for the conversion between energy states. Thermal energy can activate the transition from triplet back to singlet. This type of delayed fluorescence is also called thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). The notable feature of TADF is that the delayed component increases with increasing temperature. If the reverse intersystem crossing (IRISC) rate is fast enough to minimize the non-radiative decay by triplet, the fraction of backfilling singlet excited state may reach 75%. The total singlet fraction can be 100%, far exceeding the 25% of the spin statistics of the excitons generated by electricity.

[0040] The E-type delayed fluorescence feature can be seen in an exciplex system or a single compound. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that the E-type delayed fluorescence requires the luminescent material to have a small singlet-triplet energy gap (ΔE S-T ). Organic non-metal-containing donor-acceptor luminescent materials may be able to achieve this. The emission of these materials is usually characterized by donor-acceptor charge transfer (CT) type emission. The spatial separation of the HOMO and LUMO in these donor-acceptor type compounds usually produces a small ΔE S-T These states may include CT states. Generally, donor-acceptor light-emitting materials are constructed by linking an electron donor moiety (eg, an amino group or a carbazole derivative) to an electron acceptor moiety (eg, a six-membered aromatic ring containing N).

In the compounds mentioned in the present disclosure, adjacent substituents can be optionally connected to form a ring, including both the situation where adjacent substituents can be connected to form a ring and the situation where adjacent substituents are not connected to form a ring. When adjacent substituents can be optionally connected to form a ring, the formed ring can be a monocyclic or polycyclic ring, as well as an alicyclic, heteroalicyclic, aromatic or heteroaromatic ring. In this statement, adjacent substituents can refer to substituents bonded to the same atom, substituents bonded to carbon atoms directly bonded to each other, or substituents bonded to carbon atoms further away. Preferably, adjacent substituents refer to substituents bonded to the same carbon atom and substituents bonded to carbon atoms directly bonded to each other.

[0062] The expression that adjacent substituents can be optionally linked to form a ring is also intended to be taken to mean that two substituents bonded to the same carbon atom are linked to each other by a chemical bond to form a ring, which can be exemplified by the following formula:

[0063]

[0064] The expression that adjacent substituents can be optionally linked to form a ring is also intended to be taken to mean that two substituents bonded to carbon atoms directly bonded to each other are linked to each other by a chemical bond to form a ring, which can be exemplified by the following formula:

[0065]

[0066] Furthermore, the statement that adjacent substituents can be optionally linked to form a ring is also intended to be taken to mean that, in the case where one of the two substituents bonded to the carbon atoms directly bonded to each other represents hydrogen, the second substituent is bonded at the position to which the hydrogen atom is bonded, thereby forming a ring. This is exemplified by the following formula:
