Novel bi-nuclear boron complex with pyrene ligand: Red-light emitting as well as electron transporting material in organic light-emitting diodes

Abstract

"Chemical Equation Presented" A novel boron complex bearing a pyrene ligand (CPB) was synthesized and Introduced as the first example of a binuclear boron complex In organic light-emitting diodes. In the solid state, CPB2 exhibited strong red emission. In the devices, red emission with Commission International de L'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0,57, 0,42) was obtained by tuning the weight concentration of CPB2, CPB2 behaved as both an emitting and electron transporting material. © 2010 American Chemical Society.
