Exploring design principle for switching thermally activated dealyed fluorescecne (TADF) and room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) is a fundamentally imporant research in developing triplet-mediated photofunctional organic materials. Herein systematic studies on the regioisomeric and substituents effects in a twisted donor–acceptor–donor (D–A–D) scaffold (A = dibenzo[a,j]phenazine; D = dihydrophenazasiline) on the fate of the excited state have been performed. The study revealed that the regiosiomerism clearly affects the emission behavior of the D–A–D compounds. Distinct difference in TADF, dual TADF & RTP, and dual RTP were observed, depending on the host used. Furthermore, OLED organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) fabricated with the developed emitters achieved high external quantum yields for RTP-based OLEDS up to 7.4%.

Heteroleptic [Cu(BIPHEP)(N^N)][PF6] complexes (BIPHEP = 1,1′-biphenyl-2,2′-diylbis(diphenylphosphane)), in which N^N is 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy), 6-methyl-2,2′-bipyridine (6-Mebpy), 6-ethyl-2,2′-bipyridine (6-Etbpy), or 5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine (5,5′-Me2bpy), have been synthesized and characterized using multinuclear NMR spectroscopies and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. The single crystal structures of [Cu(BIPHEP)(bpy)][PF6]∙CH2Cl2, [Cu(BIPHEP)(5,5′-Me2bpy)][PF6]∙CH2Cl2, [Cu(BIPHEP)(6-Mebpy)][PF6]∙Et2O∙0.5H2O and [Cu(BIPHEP)(6-Etbpy)][PF6] confirm distorted tetrahedral {Cu(P^P)(N^N)} coordination environments. Each compound shows a quasi-reversible Cu+/Cu2+ process. In deaerated solution, the compounds are weak emitters. Powdered samples are yellow emitters (λemmax in the range 558–583 nm) and [Cu(BIPHEP)(5,5′-Me2bpy)][PF6] exhibits the highest photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY = 14%). On cooling to 77 K (frozen 2-methyloxolane), the emission maxima are red-shifted and the excited state lifetimes increase from τ1/2 < 8 μs, to τ1/2 values of up to 53 μs, consistent with the compounds with N^N = 6-Mebpy, 6-Etbpy and 5,5′-Me2bpy exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF).
