Driving the Emission Towards Blue by Controlling the HOMO-LUMO Energy Gap in BF₂ -Functionalized 2-(Imidazo[1,5-a]pyridin-3-yl)phenols.

ABSTRACT: Several boron compounds with 2-(imidazo[1,5-a]pyridin-3-yl)phenols, differentiated by the nature of the substituent (R) in the para position of the hydroxy group, have been synthesized and thoroughly characterized both in solution (¹ H, ¹³ C, ¹¹ B, ¹⁹ F NMR) and in the solid state (X-ray). All derivatives displayed attractive photophysical properties like very high Stokes shift, high fluorescence quantum yields and a good photostability in solution. Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TD-DFT) calculations allowed to define the main electronic transitions as intra ligand transitions (¹ ILT), which was corroborated by the Natural Transition Orbitals (NTOs) shapes. The HOMO-LUMO energy gap was correlated to the electronic properties of the substituent R on the phenolic ring, as quantified by its σ_p Hammett constant.

2-[2-(1H-Imidazol-3-ium-5-yl)eth-yl]-3-(pyridin-2-yl)-2H-imidazo[1,5-a]pyridin-4-ium bis-(perchlorate).

Project description:In the title mol-ecular salt, C(17)H(17)N(5) (+)·2ClO(4) (-), the dihedral angles between the fused-ring system and the pendant five- and six-membered heterocyclic rings are 6.4?(2) and 41.29?(19)°, respectively. The O atoms of both perchlorate anions are disordered over two sets of sites with occupancy ratios of 0.614?(8):0.386?(8) and 0.591?(7):0.409?(7). An intra-molecular C-H?N contact occurs in the cation. In the crystal, the components are linked by N-H?O and C-H?O hydrogen bonds and ?-? stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid separation = 3.642?(3)?Å].

Clarifying the Adsorption of Triphenylamine on Au(111): Filling the HOMO-LUMO Gap.

Project description:In this article, we analyze the electronic structure modifications of triphenylamine (TPA), a well-known electron donor molecule widely used in photovoltaics and optoelectronics, upon deposition on Au(111) at a monolayer coverage. A detailed study was carried out by synchrotron radiation-based photoelectron spectroscopy, near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy, scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), and ab initio calculations. We detect a new feature in the pre-edge energy region of the N K-edge NEXAFS spectrum that extends over 3 eV, which we assign to transitions involving new electronic states. According to our calculations, upon adsorption, a number of new unoccupied electronic states fill the energy region between the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of the free TPA molecule and give rise to the new feature in the pre-edge region of the NEXAFS spectrum. This finding highlights the occurrence of a considerable modification of the electronic structure of TPA. The appearance of new states in the HOMO-LUMO gap of TPA when adsorbed on Au(111) has crucial implications for the design of molecular nanoelectronic devices based on similar donor systems.

6-Bromo-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-8-amine.

Project description:The title compound, C(7)H(6)BrN(3), crystallizes with three independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The mol-ecules are approximately planar (r.m.s. deviations for all non-H atoms = 0.016, 0.023 and 0.024?Å). The primary amine groups show pyramidal coordination. In the crystal, adjacent mol-ecules are linked by N-H?N hydrogen bonds. For two independent mol-ecules, the amine groups are hydrogen-bond donors via one H atom to one acceptor atom, whereas for the third independent mol-ecule, the amine group is a hydrogen-bond donor to two acceptor atoms.

Ir(III) Metal Emitters with Cyano-Modified Imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ylidene Chelates for Deep-Blue Organic Light-Emitting Diodes.

Project description:Ir(III) carbene complexes have been explored as one of the best blue phosphors for their high performance. Herein, the authors designed and synthesized a series of blue-emitting Ir(III) phosphors (f-ct9a-c), featuring fac-coordinated cyano-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ylidene cyclometalates. These Ir(III) complexes exhibit true-blue emission with a peak maximum spanning 448-467 nm, with high photoluminescence quantum yields of 81-88% recorded in degassed toluene. Moreover, OLED devices bearing phosphors f-ct9a and f-ct9b deliver maximum external quantum efficiencies (EQEmax) of 25.9% and 30.3%, together with Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIEx,y) coordinates of (0.157, 0.225) and (0.142, 0.169), respectively. Remarkably, the f-ct9b-based device displays an incredible EQE of 29.0% at 5000 cd·m-2. The hyper-OLED device based on f-ct9b and ν-DABNA exhibits an EQEmax of 34.7% and CIEx,y coordinates of (0.122, 0.131), affirming high potentials in achieving efficient blue electroluminescence.

In Situ Anodically Oxidized BMIm-BF4: A Safe and Recyclable BF3 Source.

Project description:The anodic oxidation of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (BMIm-BF4) efficiently generates BF3 from BF4-. This Lewis acid, strongly bound to the ionic liquids, can be efficiently used in classical BF3-catalyzed reactions. We demonstrated the BF3/BMIm-BF4 reactivity in four reactions, namely, a domino Friedel-Crafts/lactonization of phenols, the Povarov reaction, the Friedel-Crafts benzylation of anisole, and the multicomponent synthesis of tetrahydro-11H-benzo[a]xanthen-11-ones. In comparison with literature data using BF3-Et2O in organic solvents, in all the presented cases, analogous or improved results were obtained. Moreover, the noteworthy advantages of the developed method are the in situ generation of BF3 (no storing necessity) in the required amount, using only the electron as redox reagent, and the recycling of BMIm-BF4 for multiple subsequent runs.
