Abstract

One-pot synthesis of a new doubly boron-doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon of 6,12-dimesityl-6,12-dihydro-6,12-diboradibenzo[def,mno]chrysene (MDBDBC) was reported. MDBDBC features a rigid planar electron-deficient core structure and demonstrates good chemical and thermal stabilities. A low-lying LUMO of -3.53 eV, a low locally excited triplet energy of 1.92 eV, as well as green electroluminescence with maximum EQE of 4.9% were found for MDBDBC, suggesting its potential as an n-type unit for future organic light emitting diode applications.
