Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an indolocarbazole-quinoline compound and its application, belonging to the technical field of organic electroluminescent materials. Background Art

[0002] As the third-generation display material, the status of OLED is constantly rising in the display field. The demand for OLED display materials is gradually increasing in more and more industries. As the three basic light-emitting materials of OLED: red light material, green light material, and blue light material, with the continuous progress of the chemical industry and manufacturing industry, the types of OLED materials tend to be diversified.

[0003] Among them, the green light material is one of the key components of OLED materials. The existing green light materials with high efficiency, fast response, and low cost are required for market applications. The development of good green light materials has become an important breakthrough difficulty. Excellent green light materials, due to their short wavelength and high frequency, have strong anti-interference ability to the outside world, enabling electrons to efficiently transition from the ground state to the excited state, and showing high-definition green light at low voltage.

[0004] With the continuous development of the display field, high definition can no longer meet people's needs. The emergence of ultra-high definition and 4K pictures has a stronger demand for high-quality green light, and the color level and fineness need to be better transitioned. Good color purity has become the key breakthrough point for green light materials. Different from red and blue light materials, green light materials are affected by broadening or shoulder peaks, resulting in large fluctuations in their CIE coordinates and significant changes in color purity, greatly reducing their own luminous efficiency and service life. High-efficiency green light has a broader market prospect.

[0005] The continuous innovation and development of green light materials have enabled OLED technology to bloom in multiple fields such as wearables and vehicles.

[0080] ;

[0081] 100 mmol of compound H, 250 mmol of potassium carbonate, 500 g of toluene and 80 g of purified water were added to a reaction flask. Stirring was started and the reaction was protected by nitrogen. Then, 1 mmol of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium was added to the reaction flask. The temperature was raised to 60 - 70 °C and a solution of 3-boronic acid-9,9-dimethylfluorene / THF (100 mmol of 3-boronic acid-9,9-dimethylfluorene dissolved in 120 g of THF) was added dropwise while controlling the temperature. After the addition was complete, the reaction was carried out under insulation. After TLC tracking detection showed no remaining compound H, the mixture was allowed to stand for phase separation, and the aqueous phase in the reaction system was separated. Then, the organic phase was washed with tap water to neutrality at a controlled temperature of 30 - 40 °C. After the washing was complete, anhydrous sodium sulfate was added to dry the organic phase. The dried organic phase was passed through a silica gel column under atmospheric pressure. After the column passing was complete, the column was rinsed with 200 g of toluene each time, and rinsing was carried out 3 times in total. After the rinsing was complete, the rinsing solution and the column passing solution were combined and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. After the solvent was removed, recrystallization was carried out with toluene to obtain 50.6 g of compound [3-37], with a yield of 78%. Mass spectrum: 649.3.
