Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of organic light-emitting materials and semiconductors, and in particular relates to 7-phenylquinolone derivatives, a preparation method thereof, and an organic electroluminescent device. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing popularity of electronic devices, people's requirements for display technology are constantly increasing, such as higher resolution, contrast, wider color gamut, and faster response speed. Traditional liquid crystal display technology is gradually failing to meet these requirements in some aspects. Organic light-emitting diode technology has become a research hotspot due to its advantages of self-luminescence, wide viewing angle, and fast response.

[0003] A typical organic electroluminescent device structure consists of an anode, a hole transport layer, a light-emitting layer, an electron transport layer, and a cathode. When a voltage is applied between the anode and cathode, holes are injected from the anode and move through the hole transport layer toward the light-emitting layer. Simultaneously, electrons are injected from the cathode and move through the electron transport layer toward the light-emitting layer. In the light-emitting layer, the electrons and holes recombine to form excitons, which transfer energy to the light-emitting material, causing it to emit light.

[0004] The fabrication process for organic electroluminescent devices is complex, and the evaporation of various functional layer materials results in significant material loss, leading to the waste of raw materials. This waste not only increases production costs but also hinders the large-scale adoption of organic electroluminescent technology. Therefore, finding a host and guest luminescent material that can achieve low-cost, large-scale, and sustainable production while also exhibiting good luminescence efficiency is a pressing challenge.

[0005] Quinolones are an important class of synthetic antibacterial drugs widely used in the pharmaceutical field. Since the synthetic pathway of these derivatives is relatively simple and easy to chemically modify, they are expected to be used in the field of organic electroluminescent luminescent materials. Patent CN115636819A discloses the general formula (9): The quinolone compounds shown are used as guest luminescent materials in the light-emitting layer of an organic electroluminescent device, which can effectively reduce the starting voltage and efficiency roll-off of the organic electroluminescent device, but the service life of the organic electroluminescent device is not significantly improved.

[0035] Preferably, the organic electroluminescent device is used in the fields of luminous lighting, image display or optoelectronic signal transmission.

[0036] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. The prior art quinolone compounds have strong carbonyl chemical activity and are easy to form hydrogen bonds with adjacent molecules, thereby damaging the life of the organic electroluminescent device; Mark the location and get Since the protecting group is inserted into the ortho position of the carbonyl group, the ortho position of the carbonyl group is the 3-position of the quinolone, which can effectively inhibit the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds; in addition, the N atom on the quinolone provides an n non-bonding orbital, and the substituent R and the Y substituent connected to the N atom provide a π* anti-bonding orbital. The n electrons on the n non-bonding orbital can transition to the π* anti-bonding orbital, forming a spatial n-π* transition. The spatial n-π* transition increases the reverse intersystem crossing rate, reduces the lifetime of triplet excitons, can effectively inhibit the annihilation of triplet excitons to produce high-energy intermediates, reduce chemical bond cleavage, and help to significantly improve the life of organic electroluminescent devices.

[0037] 2. The present invention uses quinolone as the main skeleton and simultaneously substitutes at the 7- and 3-positions of the quinolone. The 7-position substituent can enhance the conjugated system, increase the range of electron delocalization, and help improve the luminous efficiency; the bulky 3-position substituent can reduce intermolecular aggregation, reduce the aggregation quenching effect, and further improve the luminous efficiency of 7-phenylquinolone derivatives in the solid state. The combination of the two can maintain good luminescent properties in different states. Prior art application number 202211327865.X discloses a luminescent material and its application, as well as an organic electroluminescent device containing the same. Studies have shown that compared with the prior art publications in which the 3- and 5-positions, 2- and 5-positions, or 5- and 7-positions of the quinolone are simultaneously substituted, the electroluminescent device prepared using the 7-phenylquinolone derivative as the luminescent material of the present invention has a longer life and higher efficiency. The advantages of the electroluminescent device of the present invention are as follows: simultaneous substitution of the 5-position and 3-position of the prior art quinolone not only causes aggregation-induced quenching and reduces the luminous efficiency, but also makes the compound difficult to synthesize and has poor solubility; and simultaneous substitution of the 2-position and 5-position, or the 5-position and 7-position, of the prior art quinolone causes the carbonyl group to lose the protection of the adjacent substituent, and the entire compound will have a certain degree of photosensitivity, thereby affecting the life of the organic electroluminescent device.

[0038] 3. The synthesis route of the 7-phenylquinolone derivatives of the present invention is relatively simple, and the 7-phenylquinolone derivatives are easy to be chemically modified, which facilitates structural optimization and functional design to meet the material performance requirements of different organic electroluminescent devices, accelerate the development of new materials, and reduce production costs.

[0070] The test device used in the experiment consisted of five main components: an anode 2, a hole transport layer 4, a light-emitting layer 6, an electron transport layer 8, and a cathode 10.

A p-dopant is a material that imparts p-type semiconductor properties. P-type semiconductor properties refer to the ability to inject or transport holes at the HOMO energy level, i.e., a material property with high hole conductivity.

[0077] The light-emitting layer 6 is located between the hole transport layer 4 and the electron transport layer 8. The host light-emitting material is any one or a combination of any two of the 7-phenylquinolone derivatives of the present invention, Compounds 1 to 208. The guest light-emitting material is one of the high-performance DP-1, DP-2, and DP-3 materials. The mass ratio of the host light-emitting material to the guest light-emitting material is preferably 96:4. After the functional layer for achieving organic light emission is prepared, an electron transport material is evaporated onto the light-emitting layer 6. The electron transport material is selected from one or more combinations of E1, E2, or E3 with excellent industry performance, to form the electron transport layer 8. After the electron transport material is evaporated, an electron injection material is evaporated to form the electron injection layer 9. A cathode 10 is then sputtered.

[0080] Test device control group 2: conductive glass / indium tin oxide (25nm) / HT1:P1=97:3(10nm) / HT-1(50nm) / EB-1(10nm) / B-1346:DP-1=96:4(30nm) / HB-1(16nm) / E1(25nm) / LiF(10nm) / Al(50nm).

[0081] Test device control group 3: conductive glass / indium tin oxide (25nm) / HT1:P1=97:3(10nm) / HT-1(50nm) / EB-1(10nm) / B-1348:DP-1=96:4(30nm) / HB-1(16nm) / E1(25nm) / LiF(10nm) / Al(50nm).

[0082] Test device experimental group 1 to experimental group 3: The preparation method is the same as that of the test device control group 1, except that the main luminescent material CDBP is replaced by compound 8 of the present invention, and the mass ratios of the main luminescent material to the guest luminescent material are 90:10, 99:1, and 96:4, respectively, corresponding to experimental groups 1 to 3.

[0083] Test device experimental group 4 to experimental group 25: The preparation method is the same as that of the test device control group 1, except that the main light-emitting material CDBP is replaced by compound 10, compound 19, compound 22, compound 44, compound 106, compound 134, compound 45, compound 53, compound 67, compound 70, compound 83, compound 95, compound 116, compound 120, compound 129, compound 137, compound 146, compound 154, compound 163, compound 199, compound 206, and compound 208 of the present invention in sequence.

[0084] Test device experimental groups 26 to 34: The preparation method is the same as that of test device control group 1, except that the light-emitting layer 6 in this experimental group uses a dual-host light-emitting material. The selection of the host light-emitting material and the ratio of the host light-emitting material to the guest light-emitting material of the light-emitting layer 6 are shown in Table 1: Table 1 Ratios of host luminescent materials and guest luminescent materials in experimental groups 26 to 34

[0085] Note: The “ratio” in the table refers to the mass ratio of the first host luminescent material, the second host luminescent material and the guest luminescent material.

[0086] The conventional material structures used in the above test device preparation process are as follows: 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 .

[0087] The display performance data was collected for the control group test devices and the experimental group test devices. The collected data results are shown in Table 2: Table 2. Data collection of display performance of test devices in the control group and experimental group

[0088] Note: Tg is the glass transition temperature of the light-emitting layer material under high temperature; the current density during the test device detection process is 15mA / cm; LT90 refers to the time it takes for the brightness of the test device to decay to 90% of the initial brightness; “ / ” indicates that this type of data has not been tested.

[0089] As shown in Table 2, from the data of the test device, the test device prepared by using the preferred compound of the present invention as the main light-emitting material is compared with the main light-emitting materials in control groups 1 to 3. The driving voltage of the test device is reduced, the thermal stability is significantly improved, and the overall test device efficiency is significantly improved.

[0090] It can be seen from experimental groups 1 to 3 of the present invention that when the mass ratio of the main luminescent material in the luminescent layer 6 is in the range of 90:10 to 99:1, the comprehensive luminescent performance is improved. When the mass percentage is 96%, the luminescent performance of the prepared test device is the best.

[0091] Compared with Experimental Groups 3 to 6, Experimental Groups 7 to 9, and Experimental Group 15, the test device data from Experimental Groups 3 to 6 were slightly inferior. This may be due to the presence of bulky, fully deuterated R substituents in Compounds 44, 106, 134, and 95, corresponding to Experimental Groups 7 to 9 and 15. The introduction of D atoms into the compound molecules enhances spin-orbit coupling, which increases the intersystem crossing ability of the electrons in the molecules, increases the radiative transition rate, and reduces the non-radiative transition rate, thereby improving the quantum efficiency of the guest phosphorescent material.

[0092] Compared with experimental groups 1 to 24, experimental groups 26 to 34 of the present invention have significantly improved overall efficiency. This may be because the preferred compounds of the present invention are used as dual-host light-emitting materials, which can effectively balance holes and electrons while forming a wider carrier recombination area, thereby greatly improving the luminous efficiency of the test device.

[0093] The present invention discloses 7-phenylquinolone derivatives and an organic electroluminescent device. The 7-phenylquinolone derivatives are used as a main luminescent material in a luminescent layer of an organic electroluminescent device, which can effectively improve the luminous efficiency and service life of the organic electroluminescent device.

[0094] The synthetic route of the 7-phenylquinolone derivatives of the present invention is relatively simple and easy to chemically modify, facilitating structural optimization and functional design to meet the performance requirements of different organic electroluminescent devices for the main luminescent material, thereby accelerating the development of new materials and reducing production costs.

[0095] The synthesis process of 7-phenylquinolone derivatives of compounds 209 to 420 of the present invention is described as follows: The R group in compounds 209 to 420 is introduced via reactant A', wherein reactant A' is selected from one of A'01 to A'11, and the structural formulas of reactants A'01 to A'11 are as follows: 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 .

The method is used to prepare Figure 1 shown.

[0126] The detailed composition scheme is as follows: Test device control group 4: Indium Tin Oxide (25nm) / HT1:P1=97:3(10nm) / HT-1(50nm) / EB-1(10nm) / PH-4: B-224=96:4(30nm) / HB-1(16nm) / E1(25nm) / LiQ(10nm) / Al(50nm).

[0127] Test device control group 5: Indium Tin Oxide (25nm) / HT1:P1=97:3(10nm) / HT-1(50nm) / EB-1(10nm) / PH-4: B-1346=96:4(30nm) / HB-1(16nm) / E1(25nm) / LiQ(10nm) / Al(50nm).

[0128] Test device control group 6: Indium Tin Oxide (25nm) / HT1:P1=97:3(10nm) / HT-1(50nm) / EB-1(10nm) / PH-4: B-1348=96:4(30nm) / HB-1(16nm) / E1(25nm) / LiQ(10nm) / Al(50nm).

[0129] Test device experimental groups 35 to 64 were prepared in the same manner as the test device control group 4, except that the guest luminescent material BD-1 was replaced with the compound of the present invention. The specific replacement compounds are shown in Table 4.

[0130] Table 4. Guest luminescent materials corresponding to experimental groups 35 to 64

[0131] The conventional material structures used in the above test device preparation process are as follows: 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 .

[0132] Display performance data was collected for the control group test devices and the experimental group test devices. The collected data results are shown in Table 5: Table 5 Display performance data collection table of the control group and experimental group test devices

[0133] Note: Tg is the glass transition temperature of the light-emitting layer material under high temperature; the current density during the test device detection process is 15mA / cm 2 ; YT90 refers to the time it takes for the brightness of the test device to decay to 90% of its initial brightness.

[0134] As shown in Table 5, based on the test data of the test devices of experimental groups 35 to 64, the test devices prepared using the preferred compounds of the present invention as the guest luminescent materials have lower driving voltages, significantly improved thermal stability, significantly extended service life, and significantly improved overall test device efficiency, which has potential value for its promotion and application.

[0135] Compared with Experimental Groups 35 to 47, Experimental Groups 57 to 64, and Experimental Groups 48 to 56, the test data of the test devices in Experimental Groups 35 to 47, and Experimental Groups 57 to 64 were slightly inferior. This may be because the corresponding compounds 337, 339, 342, 344, 346, 348, 357, 361, and 366 in Experimental Groups 48 to 56 contain fully deuterated carbazole substituents. After the introduction of D atoms into the compound molecules, the spin-orbit coupling of the compound molecules is enhanced, which will increase the intersystem crossing ability of the electrons in the molecules, increase the radiative transition rate of the molecules, and reduce the non-radiative transition rate, thereby improving the quantum efficiency of the guest luminescent material and the service life of the test devices.

[0136] By comparison with the test devices prepared from a single main material, the overall efficiency of the test devices of Experimental Groups 35 to 64 of the present invention is significantly improved compared with Experimental Groups 1 to 25. This may be because the R groups in the compounds corresponding to Experimental Groups 35 to 64 have a large steric hindrance, which is beneficial to inhibiting the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds by the carbonyl group. At the same time, the Y groups in the compounds corresponding to Experimental Groups 35 to 64 are all electron-withdrawing groups. This design promotes effective polarization within the compound molecules, enhances the electrical transmission properties and improves the quantum efficiency, thereby improving the overall performance of the test device.

[0137] When compounds 209 to 420 of the present invention are used as guest luminescent materials in the light-emitting layer of an organic electroluminescent device, the luminous efficiency and service life of the organic electroluminescent device can be effectively improved.

[0138] The synthetic routes of compounds 209 to 420 of the present invention are relatively simple, and the main structures are easy to chemically modify, facilitating structural optimization and functional design to meet the material performance requirements of different organic electroluminescent devices, accelerate the development of new materials, and reduce production costs.

[0139] While preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, the present invention is not limited to the aforementioned embodiments. Various modifications may be made within the scope of knowledge of those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Numerous other changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims.
