Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of organic luminescent materials and relates to a six-membered heterocyclic diboron polycyclic compound for organic electroluminescent devices. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials have become a research hotspot in the field of organic optoelectronics due to their advantages of low cost and high efficiency. The excellent photophysical properties of TADF materials are related to their electroluminescence mechanism. Under the conditions of electrical excitation, the ratio of singlet S excitons to triplet T excitons is 1:3, and the high-energy exciton S n and T n The TADF material can transform into low-energy excitons S1 and T1 through vibrational relaxation and internal conversion. ST ) is small (generally less than 0.3eV). The continuously accumulated triplet exciton T1 can form a singlet exciton S1 through antisystem crossing under the action of thermal activation. The singlet exciton S1 undergoes radiative transition and produces delayed fluorescence. The theoretical maximum IQE is 100% (25% fluorescence + 75% delayed fluorescence). From the TADF electroluminescence mechanism, it can be seen that the antisystem crossing process (T1→S1) and the radiative transition process (S1→S0) are extremely important for the realization of the TADF mechanism. Both processes are related to ∆E ST There is an important relationship between ∆E and ST The smaller the ∆E is, the higher the intersystem crossing rate is and the lower the radiative transition rate is. Therefore, the appropriate ∆E ST Achieving the optimal match between the intersystem crossing rate and the radiative transition rate is a prerequisite for achieving efficient TADF.

[0120] As shown in Table 2, the compounds provided by the present invention exhibit excellent performance when used as luminescent materials in OLED devices. Compared to the BD01 material described in Comparative Example 1, the compounds provided by the present invention exhibit significantly improved luminous efficiency, a narrower half-value width, and higher color purity. These compounds have significant application value in OLED devices and offer promising industrial prospects.

[0121] Examples 25-28 The implementation process of Examples 25 to 28 is the same as that of Comparative Example 1, except that the luminescent material of the luminescent layer is replaced by Compound 7, Compound 27, Compound 241 and Compound 243 instead of BD01.

[0123] Table 3 Performance test results of organic electroluminescent devices in various examples

[0124] As shown in Table 3, the six-membered heterocyclic diboron polycyclic compounds provided by the present invention exhibit high singlet and triplet energies, a small singlet-triplet energy gap, and suitable HOMO and LUMO energy levels. While maintaining strong rigidity, these diboron polycyclic compounds exhibit a strong multiple resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) effect. Application as luminescent materials in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) narrows the emission spectrum. By varying the heteroatom content and ring closure mechanism, the emission position is red-shifted from blue to green, improving the efficiency and color purity of organic electroluminescent devices. These compounds are widely applicable to OLED light-emitting devices and display devices.

[0125] As described above, the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention are well described. The above embodiments and descriptions are merely descriptions of preferred embodiments of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention should fall within the scope of protection determined by the present invention.
