Luminescence Tuning of Organoboron Quinolates through Substituent Variation at the 5-Position of the Quinolato Moiety
摘要:
A series of organoboron quinolates with emission colors ranging from blue to red have been prepared. In comparison to the respective AlQ(3) derivatives a distinct blue-shift of the emission is observed. Theoretical calculations serve to provide insight into the nature of the frontier orbitals and the effect of the substituents in the 5-position of the quinolate ligands on the relative HOMO and LUMO energy levels. An efficient new blue emitting material with a pinacolborane substituent has been identified.

A simple yet effective strategy for synthesis of 5-aryl-8-quinolinolate-based electroluminophores with tunable emission wavelengths is presented. Two different pathways for the attachment of electron-donating or electron-withdrawing aryl groups to the 5-position of the quinolinolate ligand via Suzuki coupling were developed. A successful tuning in the emission color was achieved: the emission wavelength was found to correlate with the Hammett constant of the respective substituents, providing a powerful strategy for prediction of the optical properties of new electroluminophores.
