A New Route to Light Emitting Organic Materials Based on Triazine Derivatives

Novel light-emitting organic materials comprising conjugated oligomers chemically attached via a flexible spacer to an electron–or hole-conducting core were synthesized by Stille cross-coupling methodology and designed for tunable charge injection and optical properties. The hyperbranched structures have been characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and UV-VIS spectroscopy. The obtained structures show good stability in common organic solvents such as CHCl₃, toluene, and CH₂Cl₂ and exhibit excellent thermal stability. A preliminary electroluminescence properties were also investigated. This class of materials will help to balance charge injection and transport and to spread out the charge recombination zone, thereby significantly improving the device efficiency and lifetime of unpolarized and polarized OLEDs.
