摘要
Unveiling innovative mechanisms to design new highly efficient fluorescent materials and, thereby, fabricate high-performance organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) is a concerted endeavor in both academic and industrial circles. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been widely used as fluorescent emitters in blue OLEDs, but device performances are far from satisfactory. In response, we propose the concept of "nitrogen effects" endowed by doping electron-withdrawing nitrogen atoms into PAH fluorescence emitters. The presence of the n orbital on the imine nitrogen is conducive to promoting electron coupling, which leads to increased molar absorptivity and an accelerated radiative decay rate of emitters, thereby facilitating the Förster energy transfer (FET) process in the OLEDs. Additionally, electronically withdrawing nitrogen atoms enhances host-guest interactions, thereby positively affecting the FET process and the horizontal orientation factor of the emitting layer. To validate the "nitrogen effects" concept, cobalt-catalyzed multiple C-H annulation has been utilized to incorporate alkynes into the imine-based frameworks, which enables various imine-embedded PAH (IE-PAH) fluorescence emitters. The cyclization demonstrates notable regioselectivity, thereby offering a practical tool to precisely introduce peripheral groups at desired positions with bulky alkyl units positioned adjacent to the nitrogen atoms, which were previously beyond reach through the Friedel-Crafts reaction. Blue OLEDs fabricated with IE-PAHs exhibit outstanding performance with a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE
