RESUMEN
Five novel derivatives of pyrene, substituted at positions 1,3,6,8 with 4-(2,2-dimethylpropyloxy)pyridine (P1), 4-decyloxypyridine (P2), 4-pentylpyridine (P3), 1-decyl-1,2,3-triazole (P4), and 1-benzyl-1,2,3-triazole (P5), are obtained through a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction or CuI -catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction, respectively, and characterized thoroughly. TGA measurements reveal the high thermal stability of the compounds. Pyrene derivatives P1-P5 all show photoluminescence (PL) quantum yields (Φ) of approximately 75 % in solution. Solid-state photo- and electroluminescence characteristics of selected compounds as organic light-emitting diodes are tested. In the guest-host configuration, two matrixes, that is, poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) and a binary matrix consisting of PVK and 2-tert-butylphenyl-5-biphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (PBD) (50:50â wt %), are applied. The diodes show red, green, or blue electroluminescence, depending on both the compound chemical structure and the actual device architecture. In addition, theoretical studies (DFT and TD-DFT) provide a deeper understanding of the experimental results.
RESUMEN
Nine rhenium(i) complexes possessing three carbonyl groups together with a bidentate coordinated 2,6-di(thiazol-2-yl)pyridine derivative were synthesized to examine the impact of structure modification of the triimine ligand on the photophysical, thermal and electrochemical properties of [ReCl(CO)3(4-Rn-dtpy-κ2N)]. The Re(i) complexes were fully characterized using IR, 1H and 13C, HRMS-ESI and single crystal X-ray analysis. Their thermal properties were evaluated using DSC and TGA measurements. Photoluminescence spectra of [ReCl(CO)3(4-Rn-dtpy-κ2N)] were investigated in solution and in the solid state, at 298 and 77 K. Both emission wavelengths and quantum yields of [ReCl(CO)3(4-Rn-dtpy-κ2N)] were found to be structure-related, demonstrating a crucial role of the substituent attached to the 2,6-di(thiazol-2-yl)pyridine skeleton. In order to fully understand the photophysical properties of [ReCl(CO)3(4-Rn-dtpy-κ2N)], density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) calculations were performed. Furthermore, the complexes which showed appropriate solubility in chloroform were tested as an emissive active layer in OLED devices.
RESUMEN
Six new Re(i) complexes of the general formula [ReCl(CO)3(4'-R-terpy-κ(2)N)] with 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine-based ligands have been synthesized and characterized by IR, NMR ((1)H and (13)C), UV-Vis spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray analysis. The luminescent properties of [ReCl(CO)3(4'-R-terpy-κ(2)N)] were studied in solution and solid state, at 298 and 77 K, respectively. To obtain detailed insight into the electronic structures and spectroscopic properties of [ReCl(CO)3(4'-R-terpy-κ(2)N)], the density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) calculations were performed. Also, the suitability of this class of materials for being applied in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) has been preliminarily tested.
RESUMEN
Two series of azines and their azomethine analogues were prepared via condensation reaction of benzaldehyde, 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde, 4-pyridinecarboxaldehyde, 2-thiophenecarboxaldehyde, and 4-(diphenylamino)benzaldehyde with hydrazine monohydrate and 1,4-phenylenediamine, respectively. The structures of given compounds were characterized by FTIR, (1)H NMR, and (13)C NMR spectroscopy as well as elemental analysis. Optical, electrochemical, and thermal properties of all compounds were investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), UV-vis spectroscopy, stationary and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy, and cycling voltammetry (CV). Additionally, the electronic properties, that is, orbital energies and resulting energy gap were calculated theoretically by density functional theory (DFT). Influence of chemical structure of the compounds on their properties was analyzed.
