A series of carbazole/quinoxaline hybrids have been synthesized by classic Ullmann and Pd/Cu-catalyzed Sonogashira coupling reaction. Their photophysical, thermal, and electrochemical properties were investigated. The introduction of electron rich carbazole and electron deficient quinoxaline on to the 1,3,5-benzene center leads to twisted structure with good glass forming property and imparts bipolar character. The triplet energies in the range of 2.34-2.53 eV indicate them as potential host materials in phosphorescent OLEDs. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
