Deep blue emitting Cu() tripod complexes. Design of high quantum yield materials showing TADF-assisted phosphorescence

In a previous investigation, it was shown that [Cu(tpym)(PPh 3 )]PF 6 1 with tpym = tris(2-pyridyl)methane represents a deep blue emitter ( λ max = 466 nm) though with a low emission quantum yield Φ PL if doped in a polymer (7%) or dissolved in a fluid solvent (

In this study, we present new tripod compounds with sterically demanding ligands: [Cu(tpym)(P( o -tol) 3 )]PF 6 2 and [Cu(tpym)(P( o -butyl-ph) 3 )]PF 6 3 with P( o -tol) 3 = tris( ortho -tolyl)phosphine and P( o -butyl-ph) 3 = tris( ortho-n -butylphenyl)phosphine. These compounds show high emission quantum yields even in a fluid solution (dichloromethane) reaching a benchmark value for 3 of Φ PL = 76%. This becomes possible due to the specific design of rigidifying the complexes. Importantly, the deep blue emission color is maintained or even further blue shifted to λ max = 452 nm (compound 3 powder). Compound 2 is characterized photophysically in detail. In particular, it is shown that the lowest excited triplet state T 1 experiences very efficient spin-orbit coupling (SOC).

Investigations down to T = 1.5 K reveal a large total zero-field splitting (ZFS) of 7 cm −1 (0.9 meV). Although thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) grows in at T ≥ 160 K, the phosphorescence of 2 still dominates (60%) over TADF (40%) at ambient temperature. Thus, the compound represents a singlet harvesting-plus-triplet harvesting material, if applied in an OLED. Triplet and singlet harvesting in combination with enhancing the emitter rigidity leads to a landmark value of the photoluminescence quantum yield for dissolved Cu( i ) complexes.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1477-9226</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1477-9234</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1039/c8dt04093a</identifier><identifier>PMID: 30465052</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>England: Royal Society of Chemistry</publisher><subject>Ambient temperature ; Atomic energy levels ; Copper ; Crystallography ; Decay rate ; Dichloromethane ; Emission ; Emitters ; Fluorescence ; Harvesting ; Organic light emitting diodes ; Phosphorescence ; Spin-orbit interactions</subject><ispartof>Dalton transactions : an international journal of inorganic chemistry, 2018-12, Vol.47 (47), p.1767-1776</ispartof><rights>Copyright Royal Society of Chemistry 2018</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c403t-694d248d56369869f9900b156f7f80b5fcdb847a953068427ce49feaebaf82b33</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c403t-694d248d56369869f9900b156f7f80b5fcdb847a953068427ce49feaebaf82b33</cites><orcidid>0000-0003-1039-7673 ; 0000-0001-8244-8201 ; 0000-0003-3216-1370</orcidid></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><link.rule.ids>314,780,784,27924,27925</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30465052$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Schinabeck, Alexander</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Rau, Nicholas</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Klein, Marius</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Sundermeyer, Jörg</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Yersin, Hartmut</creatorcontrib><title>Deep blue emitting Cu() tripod complexes.
