125 potential TADF candidates are identified through quantum chemistry calculations of 700 molecules derived from a database of 40 000 molecular semiconductors. Most of them are new and some do not belong to the class of donor–acceptor molecules.

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%.

Herein, we report a mild and efficient palladium-catalyzed C–H functionalization method to synthesize a series of benzoquinone (BQ)-based charge-transfer (CT) derivatives in good yields. The optoelectronic properties of these compounds were explored both theoretically and experimentally and correlations to their structures were identified as a function of the nature and position of the donor group (meta and para) attached to the benzoquinone acceptor. Compound 3, where benzoquinone is para-conjugated to the diphenylamine donor group, exhibited thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) with a biexponential lifetime characterized by a prompt ns component and a delayed component of 353 μs.

Abstract 2,3-Dicyanopyrazine based acceptor was combined with a series of well studied donors to obtain donor-acceptor type potential thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitters. Their structural and electronic properties were computed theoretically at the level of density functional theory and time dependent density functional theory with the application of two different hybrid functionals and various basis sets. Almost all of the designed structures were computed to have the potential of being TADF compounds since they possess very narrow singlet-triplet gaps. Indeed, acridine-pyrazine (9) derivative was calculated to be the best candidate for the purpose among them.
