Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] [Cross-reference to Related Applications] This application claims the priority of the Chinese patent application with application number CN202410373346.X filed on March 28, 2024, the entire content of which is hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this application.
[0002] This application relates to the technical field of organic electroluminescent materials, and particularly to organic compounds, organic electroluminescent devices containing the same, and electronic devices.
Background Art
[0003] Currently, with the rapid development of organic synthesis and materials science, organic electroluminescent device (OLED) display technology has already been applied in fields such as smartphones and tablet PCs, and its application fields are further expanding to large sizes such as televisions. The optoelectronic functional materials applied to OLED devices can be divided into charge injection / transport materials and light-emitting materials according to their uses. According to the functions of the materials in each layer, the charge injection / transport materials can be further divided into electron injection / transport materials, electron blocking materials, hole injection / transport materials, and hole blocking materials. Therefore, the optoelectronic functional material film layers constituting the OLED device include at least a structure of two or more layers. The OLED device structure applied in the industry includes various film layers such as a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, an organic light-emitting layer, a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, and an electron injection layer, and the types and combination forms of the materials have the characteristics of richness and diversity. Also, for the combination of OLED devices with different structures, the optoelectronic functional materials used have strong selectivity, and the performance expressions of the same material in devices with different structures may be completely different.
[0004] In general, in host material / dopant systems, the host material significantly affects the efficiency and lifespan of the light-emitting device, making the selection of the host material crucial. A host material with superior performance should have an appropriate molecular weight, high glass transition temperature and thermal decomposition temperature, high electrochemical stability, and good interfacial contact with adjacent functional layer materials. For light-emitting host materials, good carrier transport capability is required, and having an appropriate triplet energy level ensures that energy can be efficiently transferred from the host material to the guest material during the light-emitting process, thereby achieving high device efficiency.
[0005] In conventional organic electroluminescent devices, the main challenges are lifespan and efficiency. As displays become larger in area, the driving voltage also increases, and both luminous efficiency and current efficiency need to be improved. Therefore, it is necessary to continue developing new materials to further improve the performance of organic electroluminescent devices. [Overview of the project]
[0006] In response to the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, the object of this application is to provide an organic compound, an organic electroluminescent device containing the same, and an electronic device in which the performance of the device can be improved by using the organic compound in the organic electroluminescent device.
[0007] A first aspect of this application provides an organic compound having the structure shown in Formula 1. JPEG2026521481000002.jpg3442 Formula I However, X and Y are selected from single bonds, O, or S, and one of X and Y is selected from O or S, and the other is a single bond. L, L1, and L2 are the same or different, and each is independently selected from single bonds, substituted or unsubstituted arylene groups having 6 to 30 carbon atoms, and substituted or unsubstituted heteroarylene groups having 3 to 30 carbon atoms. Ar1 and Ar2 are the same or different, and are independently selected from substituted or unsubstituted aryl groups having 6 to 30 carbon atoms and substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl groups having 3 to 30 carbon atoms. The substituents in L, L1, L2, Ar1, and Ar2 are the same or different and are independently selected from deuterium, a cyano group, a halogen group, a C1-C10 alkyl group, a C1-C10 halogenated alkyl group, a C1-C10 deuterated alkyl group, a C3-C12 trialkylsilyl group, a C6-C20 aryl group, or a C3-C20 heteroaryl group.
[0008] A second aspect of this application provides an organic electroluminescent device comprising an anode and a cathode provided opposite to each other, and a functional layer provided between the anode and the cathode, wherein the functional layer contains the above-mentioned organic compound.
[0009] A third aspect of this application provides an electronic device including the organic electroluminescent device described in the second aspect.
[0010] The compound in this application has a phenanthryl group ( Based on JPEG2026521481000003.jpg1921), a parent structure is formed by condensation of benzofuran or benzothiophene at the 1st and 2nd positions, and an electron-withdrawing heteroaryl group of a triazine is linked at the 3rd position, making it usable as an electron-transporting red light host material. First, the parent structure, in which benzofuran or benzothiophene is condensed at the 1st and 2nd positions of the phenanthryl group, has a relatively suitable first excited triplet energy level and is suitable as a fragment of a light-emitting host material. Second, the relatively large conjugated area of the parent structure and the presence of lone pairs of electrons on the oxygen or sulfur atom in the parent structure can significantly enhance the carrier transport performance of the target compound. Furthermore, the electron-withdrawing heteroaryl group of a triazine linked at the 3rd position and the presence of the hydrogen atom at its ortho position and the lone pairs of electrons on the oxygen / sulfur atom can relatively increase the degree of strain of the molecule, thereby conferring relatively good film-forming properties to the compound of this application. Therefore, when the compound of this application is used as an electron transport host material in a hybrid red light host material, it is possible to improve the carrier balance in the light-emitting layer, expand the carrier recombination region, improve the generation and utilization efficiency of excitons, and improve the luminescence efficiency and lifetime of the device.

They may refer to specific choices expressed between the same symbols in different bases that do not influence each other, or they may refer to specific choices expressed between the same symbols in the same base that do not influence each other.
