Highly Efficient Blue Phosphorescence from Triarylboron-Functionalized Platinum(II) Complexes of N-Heterocyclic Carbenes

Authors:

Abstract
The first examples of BMes2-functionalized NHC chelate ligands have been achieved. Their Pt(II) acetylacetonate complexes have been synthesized and fully characterized. These NHC-chelate Pt(II) compounds display highly efficient blue or blue-green phosphorescence in solution (Φ = 0.41–0.87) and the solid state (Φ = 0.86–0.90). Highly efficient electroluminescent devices based on these new Pt(II) compounds have also been fabricated.
