Synthesis, characterization and use of benzothioxanthene imide based dimers

Abstract

The synthesis of benzothioxanthene imide based dimers is reported herein. Subtle chemical modifications were carried out and their impact on the optical and electrochemical properties was investigated for a better structure-property relationship analysis. The icing on the cake was that these new structures were used as light emitting materials for the fabrication and demonstration of the firstBTXI-based OLEDs.
