Maximizing Chiral Perturbation on Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Emitters and Elaboration of the First Top-Emission Circularly Polarized OLED.

Molecular designs merging circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) and thermally activated delayed fluorescence (CP-TADF) using the concept of chiral perturbation appeared recently as a cornerstone for the development of efficient CP-organic light emitting diodes (CP-OLED). Such devices could strongly increase the energy efficiency and performances of conventional OLED displays, in which 50% of the emitted light is often lost due to the use of antiglare filters. In this context, herein, ten couples of enantiomers derived from novel chiral emitter designs are reported, exhibiting CPL, TADF, and aggregation induced enhancement emission properties (AIEE). Representing the first structure properties relationship investigation for CP-TADF materials, this thorough experimental and theoretical work highlights crucial findings on the key structural and electronic parameters (isomerism, nature of the carbazole substituents) governing the synergy between CPL and TADF properties. To conclude this study, the first top emission CP-OLED is elaborated as a new approach of generating CP light in comparison with classical bottom-emission CP-OLED architecture. Indeed, the top-emission configuration represents the only relevant device architecture for future microdisplay applications. Thereby, in addition to offer molecular guidelines to combine efficiently TADF and CPL properties, this study opens new avenues toward practical applications for CP-OLEDs.

Dichloridobis[3-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-2-methyl-5-(piperidin-1-yl)-2,3-di-hydro-1,2,4-oxa-diazole-κN (4)]platinum(II).

In title compound, [PtCl2(C15H21N3O2)2], the Pt(II) cation, located on an inversion center, is coordinated by two Cl(-) anions and two 3-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-2-methyl-5-(piperidin-1-yl)-2,3-di-hydro-1,2,4-oxa-diazole ligands in a distorted Cl2N2 square-planar geometry. The di-hydro-oxa-diazole and piperidine rings display envelope (with the non-coordinating N atom as the flap atom) and chair conformations, respectively. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into supra-molecular chains running along the b axis. The piperidine ring is disordered over two positions with the occupancy ratio of 0.528 (4):0.472 (4).
