Novel blue organic light emitting materials

The new blue light emitting materials containing anthracene were designed, synthesized and characterized. The materials were prepared in high yields by well-known reactions such as Grignard reaction, synthesis of boronic acid, and Suzuki coupling reaction. The non-coplanar structures of materials were confirmed by using the PM3 parameterization in the Hyper Chem 5.0 program (Hypercube) in order to fully optimize the structure of molecule. The obtained materials showed a thermal stability and a good film forming ability. It is found that the energy transfer from substituents to anthracene took place effectively.
