The present invention relates to novel donor-acceptor fluorene compounds, which can be used as for the fabrication of electroluminescent devices, and a process of preparing said novel compounds. More particularly, the present invention relates to amine donor and nitrile/ester acceptor fluorenes, fluorenones their π-conjugated systems and related compounds, processes for preparing the said compounds including oxidation of fluorenes to corresponding fluorenones and their use in preparing organic electronic devices such as organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), photovoltaic/solar cell, Field effect transistors and other useful electroluminescent devices. The compounds are prepared by reacting 2H-pyran-2-ones in isolated or rigid conformations with cyclic ketones containing methylene carbonyl moiety in the presence of a base in an organic solvent. The present invention also relates to a new concept and approach to overcome the problem of ‘Green emission defect’ in 9-unsubstituted fluorene-based organic light emitting diodes which occurs due to the conversion of fluorenes to fluorenones that show emission mainly in green-yellow region. In the present invention we have placed donor-acceptor substituents in such a way that donor-acceptor fluorenones show emission in the blue region (instead of green-yellow region) thus improving the blue color purity and overcoming the problem of green emission defect.
本发明涉及一种新型给体-受体芴化合物,可用于制造电致发光器件,并提供了制备所述新型化合物的方法。更具体地,本发明涉及胺给体和腈/酯受体芴烯、芴酮的π-共轭系统及相关化合物,制备所述化合物的方法包括将芴烯氧化为相应的芴酮,并将其用于制备有机电子器件,例如有机发光二极管(OLED)、光伏/太阳能电池、场效应晶体管和其他有用的电致发光器件。所述化合物通过在有机溶剂中,在存在碱的情况下,将2H-吡喃-2-酮与含有亚甲基羰基的环状酮反应而制备得到。本发明还涉及一种新的概念和方法,以克服基于9-未取代芴的有机发光二极管中的“绿色发射缺陷”问题,该问题是由于将芴烯转化为主要在绿黄色区域发射的芴酮而引起的。在本发明中,我们将给体-受体取代基放置在一定的位置,使得给体-受体芴酮在蓝色区域发射(而不是绿黄色区域),从而提高蓝色纯度并克服绿色发射缺陷问题。
