A metal complex [(4m2pq)2Ir(acac)] was synthesized under mild condition of dichloromethane as solvent and potassium carbonate as deacid reagent at 25 ℃,where '4m2pq' is the ortho-C-deprotonated derived from 4-methyl-2-phenylquinoline and 'acac' is derived from pentane-2,4-dione.The molecular structure of(4m2pq)2Ir(acac) was characterized by 1H NMR spectral,13C NMR spectrum and X-ray diffraction.UV-visible absorption spectrum,photoluminescence spectrum,luminescence quantum yields and phosphorescence lifetime were measured for studying photophysical properties of(4m2pq)2Ir(acac).The single crystal structure of(4m2pq)2Ir(acac) is in triclinic and space group P1.The orange phosphorescent emission with high fluorescence quantum efficiencies of 50.4% and lifetime of 0.33 μs can be observed with peaks at 597 nm in degassed CH2Cl2 solution at room temperature.Moreover,(4m2pq)2Ir(acac) was utilized as phosphorescence dopant in OLEDs with the structures of ITO/NPB(30 nm)/ CBP∶(4m2pq)2Ir(acac)(mass fraction of 6% and 8%,20 nm)/BCP(10 nm)/Alq3(20 nm)/LiF(1 nm)/Al.The device showed orange emission at 597 nm,maximum brightness of 39 667 cd/m2,current efficiency of 14.2 cd/A,and power efficiency of 8.1 lm/W.
