Aiming at the bottleneck problem existing in the field at present, the invention provides a room temperature phosphorescent molecule based on column [5] arene, which has novel structure, reliable property and convenient synthesis, a preparation method thereof and application thereof in a light-emitting layer of an organic electroluminescent device.
The column [5]]The room temperature phosphorescent molecules of the aromatic hydrocarbon have trans-space charge transfer in molecules, thereby effectively reducing the energy level difference between a singlet state and a triplet state, promoting intersystem crossing of excitons, and realizing that the cyan phosphorescence can be emitted under excitation of exciting light of 350-380 nm at room temperature. While the column [5]]The room temperature phosphorescent molecule of the aromatic hydrocarbon has guest-regulated room temperature phosphorescent emission, and the diameter of the molecule is smaller than that of the molecule through adsorption or desorption
And can be volatilized into gas at room temperature and can be packed in column [5]]The arene complex organic halide realizes the enhancement or weakening of quantum yield and shortens or prolongs the phosphorescence life.
A room temperature phosphorescent molecule based on a pillar [5] arene, which is a pillar [5] arene conjugated with a pair of m-benzaldehyde groups or a pillar [5] arene conjugated with a pair of pyridylphenyl groups, having the following formula (1):
in formula (1), ar is selected from one of the substituents shown in the following formulas (2) and (3):
in the formula (1), R is selected from one of the substituents shown in the following formulas (4) and (5):
at room temperature, the room temperature phosphorescent molecule solid powder based on the column [5] arene can emit cyan phosphorescence under the excitation of exciting light of 350-380 nm, and has obvious phosphorescence emission, convenient detection and stable property.
The column [5] arene conjugated with a pair of m-benzaldehyde groups provided by the invention and the column [5] arene conjugated with a pair of pyridine phenyl groups provided by the invention are almost the same in phosphorescence property, and the phosphorescence mechanism is trans-space charge transfer from a 1, 4-dialkyl benzene donor to a m-benzaldehyde acceptor or a pyridine acceptor. This charge transfer reduces the difference in energy levels between singlet and triplet states, providing the possibility for intersystem crossing of excitons. In addition, the aldehyde group on the m-benzaldehyde or the nitrogen heteroatom on the pyridine promotes spin-orbit coupling, so that intersystem crossing is facilitated, and therefore, the two kinds of pillared [5] arene derivatives show room-temperature phosphorescence.
The invention also provides a preparation method of the room temperature phosphorescent molecule based on the column [5] arene, and the method is simple to operate, reliable in route and low in cost.
A preparation method of room temperature phosphorescent molecules based on column [5] arene comprises the following steps:
(a) Utilizing a strategy that ceric ammonium nitrate can oxidize one repeating unit of the pillared aromatic hydrocarbon into p-benzoquinone, dispersing full alkyl pillared [5] aromatic hydrocarbon and ceric ammonium nitrate into a mixed solution of dichloromethane and water, stirring the full alkyl pillared [5] aromatic hydrocarbon into full methyl pillared [5] aromatic hydrocarbon or full ethyl pillared [5] aromatic hydrocarbon under the protection of inert gas at room temperature for reaction, evaporating a solvent to dryness after the reaction is finished, dissolving the obtained solid into dichloromethane, washing, drying, filtering, separating and concentrating to obtain pillared [4] arene [1] quinone;
(b) Dispersing the column [4] arene [1] quinone and sodium hydrosulfite obtained in the step (a) into a mixed solution of dichloromethane and water, stirring and reacting at room temperature under the protection of inert gas, and reducing the p-benzoquinone unit in the macrocycle into hydroquinone by the sodium hydrosulfite. After the reaction is finished, separating liquid, drying the obtained organic phase, filtering, evaporating the solvent to dryness, and obtaining the column [5] arene containing a pair of phenolic hydroxyl groups;
(c) Dissolving the column [5] arene containing the pair of phenolic hydroxyl groups obtained in the step (b) in dichloromethane, adding pyridine as an acid-binding agent, dropwise adding trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride at 0-5 ℃ under the protection of inert gas, stirring at room temperature for reaction, and changing the phenolic hydroxyl groups into trifluoromethanesulfonic acid esters. After the reaction is finished, washing, separating liquid, drying the obtained organic phase, filtering, separating and concentrating to obtain column [5] arene containing the pair of triflate;
(d) Dissolving the column [5] arene containing a pair of triflates and arylboronic acid obtained in the step (c) in tetrahydrofuran, adding potassium carbonate as an alkali, adding a catalyst of tetrakis (triphenylphosphine) palladium, stirring and reacting at 80-90 ℃ under the protection of inert gas, carrying out Suzuki coupling on the column [5] arene containing a pair of triflates and arylboronic acid under the catalysis of palladium, evaporating the solvent to dryness after the reaction is finished, separating the obtained solid, and concentrating to obtain the column [5] arene containing a pair of conjugated structures;
in the step (d), when the arylboronic acid is 3-formylphenylboronic acid, the column [5] arene containing a pair of conjugated structures is the column [5] arene conjugated with a pair of m-benzaldehyde groups; when the aryl boric acid is 4- (4-pyridyl) phenylboronic acid, the column [5] arene containing a pair of conjugated structures is the column [5] arene conjugated with a pair of pyridine phenyl groups.
Preferably, in the step (a), the molar ratio of the per-alkyl-column [5] arene to the cerium ammonium nitrate is 1 (1.8-2.2). The addition of too much ammonium cerium nitrate leads to excessive oxidation, resulting in a pillared arene derivative containing more p-benzoquinone motifs.
Preferably, in step (a), the separation is specifically performed by using a silica gel column chromatography, and an eluent of the silica gel column chromatography is a mixed solution of petroleum ether and ethyl acetate, and the volume ratio of the petroleum ether to the ethyl acetate is 10.
Preferably, in step (b), the sodium dithionite is in excess so that the p-benzoquinone moiety in the pillared [4] aren [1] quinone is completely reduced. If the amount of sodium dithionite added is insufficient, part of the pillared [4] aren [1] quinone will be unreduced.
Preferably, in step (c), the separation is performed by silica gel column chromatography, and the eluent of the silica gel column chromatography is a mixed solution of petroleum ether and ethyl acetate, and the volume ratio of the petroleum ether to the ethyl acetate is 20.
Preferably, in step (d), the molar ratio of the column [5] arene containing the para-triflate to the arylboronic acid is 1: (2.5-4). If the amount of the arylboronic acid added is small, a pillar aromatic derivative which is not completely reacted is generated;
preferably, in the step (d), the separation is performed by using a silica gel column chromatography, an eluent of the silica gel column chromatography is a mixed solution of petroleum ether and ethyl acetate, and the volume ratio of the petroleum ether to the ethyl acetate is 3.

And can be volatilized into gas at room temperature and can be packed in column [5]]The arene complex organic halide realizes the enhancement or weakening of quantum yield and shortens or prolongs the phosphorescence life.
