The invention relates to an asymmetrical
iridium (III) phosphorescent complex containing a dibenzo-
phosphorus mixed with cyclopentadienyl group, and a synthesis method of the asymmetrical
iridium (III) phosphorescent complex. The synthesis method comprises the steps of synthesizing a ligand L-PO by taking 2-phenylpyridine and p-bromophenyl
boronic acid as raw materials, and carrying out a Suzuki
coupling reaction to synthesize 2-(4-bromophenyl)
pyridine; enabling the 2-(4-bromophenyl)
pyridine to have a reaction with n-
butyl lithium and
trimethyl borate to generate 4-(2-pyridyl) phenyl
boronic acid; enabling the 4-(2-pyridyl) phenyl
boronic acid to have a reaction with o-dibromobenzene for carrying out Suzuki
coupling to generate a
pyridine derivative having a 2-bromobiphenyl structure; enabling a
Grignard reagent of the compound to have a reaction with dichlorophenyl
phosphine, and carrying out a ring closing reaction under a catalytic condition of
palladium acetate to obtain the ligand L-PO containing the dibenzo-
phosphorus mixed with cyclopentadienyl group. The asymmetrical
iridium (III) phosphorescent complex containing the dibenzo-
phosphorus mixed with cyclopentadienyl group has excellent
electron injection /
transmission performance, and can remarkably improve the
electroluminescence efficiency of an
organic electroluminescence device based on the materials.
