Synthesis and blue light-emitting properties of 4,4＇-bis（diphenylamino）-quinque（p-phenyl）s

An excellent organic blue light-emitting diode based on 4,4＇-bis（diphenylamino）-quinque（p-phenylene）s （OPP（5）-NPh） with a maximum luminance of up to 5000 cd/m^2 and a luminanous efficiency of 1.3 cd/A was reported.
