摘要

Chiral europium(III) (Eu(III)) complexes, owing to their characteristic f-f transitions and allowed magnetic dipole transitions, enable narrowband emission and good circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) properties with high luminescence dissymmetry factors (glum), exhibiting application potential in circularly polarized organic light-emitting diode (CP-OLED) and 3D display. Herein, we report a pair of R/S-Eu(TTA)3DFPO enantiomers using β-diketone 1,1,1-trifluoro-3-(2-thenoyl)acetone (TTA) as the main ligand and point-chiral R/S-tert-butyl(6-(diphenylphosphoryl)dibenzo-[b,d]furan-4-yl)(phenyl) phosphine-oxide (R/S-DFPO) as ancillary ligands. In toluene, the enantiomers exhibit characteristic narrowband red emission arising from 5D07F2 transition of Eu(III), featuring a maximum emission wavelength of 617 nm with a full width at half maximum of 11 nm, together with a photoluminescence quantum yield of 43% and a pronounced chiroptical response, as evidenced by |gPL| values of 8.0 × 10−3 around 590 nm (5D07F1 transition). Notably, CP-OLEDs fabricated with R/S-Eu(TTA)3DFPO via vacuum deposition exhibit a maximum external quantum efficiency of 4.0%, obvious circularly polarized electroluminescence with |gEL| values of above 1.0 × 10−2. These results demonstrate that the application of a point-chiral phosphine-oxide ligand provides an effective strategy for achieving coordination-stable chiral Eu(III) complexes for CP-OLEDs.
