Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of organic electroluminescence, and in particular to tetradentate cyclometallated platinum(II) complexes, electronic devices and their applications. [Background technology]

[0002] Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) are a new generation of full-color display and lighting technology. Compared to LCDs, which have drawbacks such as slow response times, narrow viewing angles, the need for backlighting, and high power consumption, OLEDs are self-emitting devices that do not require backlighting and are energy-efficient. They also have low driving voltages, fast response times, high resolution and contrast, a wide viewing angle, and excellent low-temperature properties. OLED devices can be made thinner and more flexible. They also have the advantages of low manufacturing costs, simple manufacturing processes, and the ability to be fabricated on large areas. Therefore, OLEDs have enormous potential for a wide range of applications in high-end electronics and aerospace. With gradual increases in investment, deeper research and development, and upgrades and improvements to manufacturing facilities, OLEDs will have a very wide range of application scenarios and development prospects in the future.

[0003] The design and development of emissive materials is at the heart of OLED development. Most currently used emissive layers in OLED devices utilize a host-guest emissive system, in which a guest emissive material is doped into a host material. The host material typically has a larger energy gap than the guest emissive material, transferring energy from the host to the guest material, which is then excited and emits light. Commonly used organic phosphorescent guest materials are heavy metal atoms such as iridium(III), platinum(II), and palladium(II). Commonly used phosphorescent organic materials, mCBP (3,3'-bis(9-carbazolyl)-biphenyl) and 2,6-mCPy (2,6-bis(9-carbazolyl)-pyridine), have high efficiency and high triplet energy levels. When used as organic materials, they can efficiently transfer triplet energy from the organic emissive material to the guest phosphorescent material. However, mCBP has the property of easily transporting holes but poorly transporting electrons, and 2,6-mCPy has poor hole transport properties, resulting in an imbalance of charge in the emissive layer and reduced current efficiency. Furthermore, the number of cyclometallated iridium(III) complex molecules, a heavy metal phosphorescent organic complex molecule, currently in use is limited. The abundance of metallic platinum in the Earth's crust and the global annual production are approximately 10 times that of metallic iridium. The price of IrCl3·H2O, used to prepare iridium(III) complex phosphorescent materials, is also much higher than that of PtCl2, used to prepare platinum(II) complex phosphorescent materials. Furthermore, the preparation of iridium(III) complex phosphorescent materials involves four steps: iridium(III)-containing dimerization, ligand exchange of the iridium(III) intermediate, synthesis of mer-iridium(III) complex, and conversion of mer- to fac-iridium(III) complex isomers. This significantly reduces the overall yield and utilization rate of the raw material IrCl3·H2O, increasing the preparation cost of iridium(III) complex phosphorescent materials. In contrast, the preparation of platinum(II) complex phosphorescent materials requires only the final step of ligand metallization and platinum salt synthesis, which increases the utilization rate of platinum element and further reduces the preparation cost of platinum(II) complex phosphorescent materials.In short, the preparation cost of platinum(II) complex phosphorescent materials is much lower than that of iridium(III) complex phosphorescent materials. However, there are still technical difficulties in the development of platinum complex materials and devices, and how to improve the efficiency and lifespan of devices has become an important research topic. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new phosphorescent metal platinum(II) complexes. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

Furthermore, when the tetradentate cyclometallated platinum(II) complex is combined with a specific host material, it can not only improve the current efficiency of electronic devices, particularly organic electroluminescent devices, and extend the device lifetime, but also reduce the operating voltage of the components.

This invention is not intended to be limited in any manner with respect to the permissible substituents of organic compounds. Similarly, the terms "substituted" or "substituted with" connote that such substitution is subject to the permissible valences of the substituted atom and the substituent, and that the substitution results in a stable compound (e.g., a compound that does not undergo spontaneous transformation, such as rearrangement, cyclization, or elimination). Furthermore, in certain embodiments, it is contemplated that individual substituents may optionally be further substituted (i.e., may or may not be further substituted), unless clearly indicated to the contrary.

[0028] In the definitions of various terms, "R1" to "R 11 " is used herein as a general symbol to represent various specific substituents.

For example, in the phrase "an alkyl group comprising an amino group," the amino group may be attached within the backbone of the alkyl group. Optionally, the amino group may be attached to the backbone of the alkyl group. The nature of the group selected will determine whether the first group is incorporated into or attached to the second group.

Examples of heteroatoms include, but are not limited to, nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, and phosphorus. Similarly, the term "non-heteroaryl" is included within the term "aryl" and is defined as a group containing an aromatic group that does not contain a heteroatom.

[0037] [ka] [wherein n is typically an integer, i.e., R n is a group consisting of five independent substituents R a(1) , R a(2) , R a(3) , R a(4) , R a(5) "Independent substituents" means that each R substituent can be defined independently. For example, in one example, R n(a) is a halogen, R a(m) is not necessarily a halogen in that example.

[0112] OLED device manufacturing As a reference method for device examples, the present invention involves vapor deposition of a p-type doping material or co-evaporation of a p-type doping material with a hole injection material at a concentration of 1% to 50% on the surface or anode of an ITO glass substrate having a 2 mm x 2 mm light-emitting area to form a 5-100 nm hole injection layer (HIL) and a 5-200 nm hole transport layer (HTL). A 10-100 nm emissive layer (EML) (which may contain a compound of the present invention) is then formed on the hole transport layer, followed by a 20-200 nm electron transport layer (ETL) and a 50-200 nm cathode.
