This article describes the synthesis, along with the full photophysical and computational characterization, of a series of push-pull boron complexes comprising a sterically hindered donor connected to a pyrimidine-based O^N^O boron chelate. The dimethylacridan-functionalized fluorophore appears to be the most emissive in the series, both in toluene solution and in the solid state (as a powder), displaying thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emission in degassed media due to a small singlet-triplet energy gap. This result is in line with a previously reported pyridine analogue, which also exhibits delayed emission. Incorporation of this TADF compound into an organic light-emitting diode led to the observation of intense electroluminescence, with EQEmax values reaching 9.7% at a 5 wt% doping concentration.

02:46Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than...
02:36Regioselectivity and Stereochemistry of Hydroboration
Hydroboration proceeds in a concerted fashion with the attack of borane on the π bond, giving a cyclic four-centered transition state. The –BH2 group is bonded to the less substituted carbon and –H to the more substituted carbon. The concerted nature requires the simultaneous addition of –H and –BH2 across the same face of the alkene giving syn...
