Abstract:
A spiro-axis skeleton not only introduces circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) into thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) molecules but also enhances the intramolecular through space charge transfer (TSCT) process. Spiral distributed phenoxazine and 2-(trifluoromethyl)-9H-thioxanthen-9-one-10,10-dioxide act as donor and acceptor units, respectively. The resulting TADF enantiomers, (rac)-OSFSO, display emission maxima at 470 nm, small singlet-triplet energy gap (ΔEST ) of 0.022 eV and high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of 81.2 % in co-doped film. The circularly polarized OLEDs (CP-OLEDs) based on (R)-OSFSO and (S)-OSFSO display obvious circularly polarized electroluminescence (CPEL) signals with dissymmetry factor up to 3.0×10-3 and maximum external quantum efficiency (EQEmax ) of 20.0 %. Moreover, the devices show remarkably low efficiency roll-off with an EQE of 19.3 % at 1000 cd m-2 (roll-off ca. 3.5 %), which are among the top results of CP-OLEDs.

Conjugated systems containing an even number of π-electron pairs undergo a conrotatory ring closure. For example, thermal electrocyclization of (2E,4E)-2,4-hexadiene, a conjugated diene containing two π-electron pairs, gives trans-3,4-dimethylcyclobutene.
