Popis: New fluoro derivatives of Ph 2 N-containing (Ph: phenyl) oligo(arylenevinylene) derivatives are prepared by using double Heck-coupling reactions or Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reactions. These oligomers are highly fluorescent (fluorescence quantum yields Φ = 0.93-0.68) with emissions in a broad wavelength region (448-579 nm), depending on the position of the fluoro substituents. The highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO-LUMO) energy levels of these oligomers are characterized by electrochemistry and UV spectroscopy. The effects of the fluoro substituents on the energy levels are rationalized with HOMO-LUMO simulations. In a classical organic light emitting diode (OLED), one representative (5a) shows a remarkable external quantum efficiency value (η ext = 4.87 %) at J=20 mA cm -2 ; the maximum brightness at 10.2 V is 22506 cd m -2 (λ=458 nm; Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates x=0.14, y = 0.14) with a full width at half-maximum of 54 nm, demonstrating the superiority of these fluoro-containing oligomers in OLED devices.
