Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

This blue phosphorescent material includes: a central metal containing iridium; and a phenyl-imidazopyridine ligand which is a bidentate ligand of the central metal and has an iridium-carbon bond with the central metal, wherein the ligand may include a ligand in which a 2,6-dimethylphenyl functional group has been introduced to a phenyl group of the ligand. The present application relates to a blue phosphorescent material, a production method thereof, and photophysical properties thereof, the blue phosphorescent material having an iridium-carbon bond and including a phenyl-imidazopyridine ligand to which a sterically hindered functional group has been introduced.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1 . A blue phosphorescent material comprising a hetero-ligand iridium complex of wherein X-Y represents an auxiliary ligand. 2 . The blue phosphorescent material of claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary ligand comprises acetylacetonate. 3 . The blue phosphorescent material of claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary ligand comprises phenylpyridine. 4 . The blue phosphorescent material of claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary ligand comprises pyridylimidazole. 5 . A method for preparing the blue phosphorescent material of claim 1 , the method comprising preparing a main ligand by: providing a 2,6-dimethylphenyl functional group to phenyl-amine; and preparing the main ligand by introducing imidazopyridine into a phenyl group of the phenyl-amine. 6 . The method of claim 5 , further comprising: providing a mixed solution containing the main ligand and an iridium compound; and preparing an iridium dimer through a metalation reaction between the main ligand and iridium of the iridium compound. 7 . The method of claim 6 , further comprising reacting the iridium dimer with the auxiliary ligand.
