lr(III)-Based Phosphors with Bipyrazolate Ancillaries; Rational Design, Photophysics, and Applications in Organic Light-Emitting Diodes

A series of three charge-neutral Ir(III) complexes bearing both neutral chelating ligands 4, 4'di-t-butyl-2, 2'bipyridine (dtbbpy) and mono-anionic cyclometalated ligands derived from 2-phenylpyridine (ppyH), together with either two mono-anionic ligands or a single dianionic chelate deriv...

Summary:A series of three charge-neutral Ir(III) complexes bearing both neutral chelating ligands 4, 4'di-t-butyl-2, 2'bipyridine (dtbbpy) and mono-anionic cyclometalated ligands derived from 2-phenylpyridine (ppyH), together with either two mono-anionic ligands or a single dianionic chelate derived from 5, 5'di(trifluoromethyl)3, 3'bipyrazole (bipzH[sub 2]) or 5,5'(1-methylethylidene)-bis-(-3-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazole ) (mepzH[sub 2]), was successfully synthesized. Organic light emitting diodes were successfully fabricated. A double emitting layer design was adopted in the device architecture using Ir(III) metal complexes 3 and 4, attaining peak external quantum efficiencies, luminance efficiencies, and power efficiencies of 18.1% and 16.6%, respectively.
