Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of organic semiconductor materials, and particularly to a non-planar cyclic compound with intramolecular space coupling effect and a synthesis method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The preparation of organic low-bandgap molecules capable of realizing near-infrared (NIR) luminescence or optoelectronic response is a research hotspot in the fields of organic electronics, optoelectronics, and biological imaging. Such molecules usually need to have an extended π-conjugated system, intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) characteristics, or a specific energy level structure to achieve a narrow bandgap (usually <1.5 eV) and efficient near-infrared absorption / emission.

[0003] In the design and development process of near-infrared (NIR)-active organic molecules, researchers have proposed various strategies through multi-dimensional cooperative regulation strategies, from simple conjugated systems in the early stage to complex multi-functional molecular architectures today: (1) Extension and strengthening of the conjugated backbone: By increasing linear conjugated units (such as acene compounds) or constructing a three-dimensional conjugated network (such as spiro molecules), the π→π* transition energy level can be effectively reduced; (2) Stabilization engineering of the quinoid structure: Developing a reversible quinoid-aromatic equilibrium system (such as diketopyrrolopyrrole compounds) can significantly reduce the bond length alternation (BLA) value; (3) Strengthening and expansion of molecular planarity: By introducing double bonds, triple bonds, rigid fused rings (such as thiophene[3,2-b]thiophene) or designing a cyclic cross-conjugated system to suppress torsional distortion and ensure maximum π-electron delocalization; (4) Directional enhancement of the charge transfer effect: Constructing a D-A-D or A-D-A type donor-acceptor topological structure and using orbital hybridization between donor and acceptor units to regulate the charge separation state; (5) Strategic introduction of the heavy atom effect: Selectively incorporating heteroatoms such as sulfur, selenium, and tellurium, and promoting intersystem crossing through spin-orbit coupling can effectively extend the absorption spectrum to the second near-infrared region (NIR-II); (6) Cooperative utilization of intermolecular interactions: Carefully designing modified groups or side chain structures to induce other self-assembly behaviors such as J-aggregation and H-aggregation between molecules, and realizing the red shift of the absorption and emission spectra in the thin film state. The iterative innovation of these multi-dimensional regulation means has gradually extended the absorption / emission boundary of organic near-infrared materials from the initial visible light region to the near-infrared region, providing multiple innovative paths for the fields of organic optoelectronics and biomedical imaging.

[0004] Currently, most low-bandgap organic molecules are fused heteroaromatic super-large π-conjugated systems. However, the construction of such structures often involves harsh reaction conditions (such as high temperature and high pressure, inert atmosphere protection), inefficient ring-closure steps (such as Scholl reaction, etc.), and cumbersome purification processes, resulting in a low total yield (usually <30%), and may be accompanied by problems such as many by-products and high solvent toxicity, seriously restricting the large-scale preparation and practical application of the materials.

[0005] On the other hand, easily accessible non-planar cyclic molecules are difficult to achieve near-infrared absorption due to the lack of long-range conjugated chains or broad conjugated planes, and the light absorption coefficient of the materials will also be severely restricted. On the other hand, their flexible molecular conformations make it difficult to achieve tight π-π stacking when in the thin film state, which will limit the carrier transport rate of their thin films, resulting in poor performance of optoelectronic devices prepared based on such materials. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The object of the present invention is to provide a non-planar cyclic compound containing intramolecular space coupling and its synthesis method. By introducing intramolecular space coupling, the modification difficulty of low-bandgap molecules is reduced and the yield is increased. At the same time, the non-planar cyclic conjugated molecules obtain near-infrared response and high hole transport ability, solving the problems in the background technology.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a non-planar cyclic compound containing intramolecular space coupling. The non-planar cyclic compound has a D-π-A-π-D push-pull electron non-planar cyclic conjugated structure with a triphenylamine unit as the electron donor, 4,4-bis(2-ethylhexyl)-dithieno[3,2-b:2',3'-d]cyclopentadiene (CPDT) as the π-bridge, and benzothiadiazole or its derivative as the electron acceptor.

[0008] The present invention also provides a synthesis method of the above non-planar cyclic compound containing intramolecular space coupling, specifically including the following steps:

[0009] S1. Under a nitrogen atmosphere, compound 1 (CPDT) and N-bromosuccinimide are dissolved in anhydrous dichloromethane and stirred at room temperature for 8 h. After extracting the organic substances, they are washed and dried, and the crude product compound 2 is obtained by concentration. The structural formulas of compound 1 and compound 2 are as follows:

[0010]

[0011] S2. Compound 2, 4,4'-dimethoxy-4''-boronic acid triphenylamine, Pd[P(C6H5)3]4 and K2CO3 are dissolved in a dioxane solution and mixed. The mixture is degassed with nitrogen for 15 min and then refluxed and stirred for 12 h. After cooling to room temperature, the organic substances are extracted and dried, and column chromatography purification is carried out on silica gel using a mixed solvent of dichloromethane / petroleum ether as the eluent to obtain a brown solid compound 3. The structural formula of compound 3 is as follows:

[0012]

[0013] S3. Dissolve compound 3 in tetrahydrofuran, add n-butyllithium under a nitrogen atmosphere at -78 °C and stir for 1 h, then add trimethyltin chloride, and then stir at room temperature for 8 - 12 h. Quench the reaction with water, extract the organic matter, wash and dry it, and concentrate it under reduced pressure to obtain the crude product compound 4; The structural formula of compound 4 is as follows:

[0014]

[0015] S4. Dissolve compound 4, benzothiadiazole or benzothiadiazole derivative in toluene, degas the mixture with nitrogen for 15 min, then add (PPh3)2PdCl2 and reflux for 6 - 24 h. After cooling to room temperature, extract the organic matter, wash and dry it, remove the solvent under reduced pressure, and use a mixed solvent of dichloromethane / petroleum ether as the eluent to purify the product by silica gel column chromatography to obtain the black solid as the final product.

[0016] Preferably, in step S1, the molar ratio of compound 1 to N-bromosuccinimide is 1 - 1.4:1.

[0017] Preferably, in step S1, extract with deionized water, wash with saturated brine, and dry with anhydrous sodium sulfate.

[0018] Preferably, in step S2, the molar ratio of compound 2, 4,4'-dimethoxy-4”-triphenylamine boronic acid, Pd[P(C6H5)3]4, and K2CO3 is 1:1.2 - 3:0.05 - 0.3:3 - 5, and the volume ratio of dichloromethane to petroleum ether in the mixed solvent of dichloromethane / petroleum ether is 2:1.

[0019] Preferably, in step S2, extract with petroleum ether and dry with anhydrous sodium sulfate.

[0020] Preferably, in step S3, the molar ratio of compound 3, n-butyllithium, and trimethyltin chloride is 1:1 - 3:1 - 2.

[0021] Preferably, in step S3, extract with petroleum ether, wash with deionized water, and dry with anhydrous sodium sulfate.

[0023] Preferably, in step S4, extract with dichloromethane, wash with saturated brine, and dry with anhydrous MgSO4.

[0024] The present invention introduces multiple intramolecular spatial coupling effects in non-planar cyclic molecules, which are synergistically regulated by non-covalent conformational locking and steric hindrance, to assist in stabilizing the conjugated backbone of non-planar cyclic molecules, restricting the torsional dihedral angle between conjugated units to maintain the planarity of the molecule. While obtaining low-bandgap molecules in high yields, the light absorption ability and carrier transport ability are maintained, and the processability of the material is potentially improved by weakening the molecular rigidity. This molecule has the potential to be used as a photoactive material and a hole transport material.

[0025] Therefore, a non-planar cyclic compound containing intramolecular spatial coupling effects and a synthesis method thereof provided by the present invention have the following beneficial effects:

[0026] (1) Enhancing π-electron delocalization and energy level regulation

[0027] Reducing the bandgap: By assisting the rigid planar structure to maximize π-electron conjugation, the HOMO-LUMO energy gap is significantly reduced, and the absorption / emission is extended to the near-infrared region.

[0028] (2) Improving charge transport performance

[0029] Mobility optimization: Planarization reduces the carrier hopping barrier; Anisotropic conduction: Locking a specific planar conformation can induce preferred orientation of molecules (such as edge-on arrangement) to achieve directional charge transport.

[0100] Perform performance analysis on the final products prepared in Examples 1 - 3.

[0101] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the π - A - π skeleton of the TM - 1, TM - 2, and TM - 3 molecules prepared in Examples 1 - 3. From Figure 1 It can be seen that the distances between the N, H; S, H; N, S atoms of adjacent units of the molecule are less than the sum of their van der Waals radii, indicating the existence of non - covalent interactions between atoms. Under the action of the steric hindrance between the alkyl chain and the central parent nucleus, the three molecules respectively exhibit the optimal cis, trans, and cis conformations, and the dihedral angle between units is limited within 21°, preventing the molecular skeleton distortion caused by the single - bond torsion, which is beneficial to maintaining the light absorption ability and carrier transport ability of the molecule. We call this effect "intramolecular space coupling effect". The introduction of the intramolecular space coupling effect greatly reduces the synthesis and modification difficulty of planar - like molecules, making it easy to synthesize near - infrared absorption materials with extremely low bandgaps, and the molecules are finally obtained in a relatively high yield.

[0102] Figure 2 It is the light absorption spectrum of the TM - 2 molecule prepared in Example 2. From Figure 2 It can be seen that the absorption spectral band edges of the TM - 2 molecule in the dichloromethane solution and the film prepared from the chlorobenzene spin - coating solution are located at 1161 nm and 1263 nm, and the bandgap is 1.02 eV. Therefore, the non - planar cyclic compound containing intramolecular space coupling effect prepared in the present invention can be used as a near - infrared light - absorbing or emitting material for the development of optoelectronic materials.

[0103] Figure 3 It is a statistical chart of the average hole mobility of the TM - 1, TM - 2, and TM - 3 molecules prepared in Examples 1 - 3. From Figure 3 It can be seen that the maintenance of the molecular planarity of the three molecules ensures good intermolecular π - π stacking, making the hole mobilities of the three compounds all higher than 10 -4 cm 2 V -1 s -1, has the potential for hole transport materials.

[0104] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify or equivalently replace the technical solutions of the present invention, and these modifications or equivalent replacements cannot make the modified technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
