Abstract

A series of the novel ‘ethyne-linked’ compounds containing carbazole and 1,8-naphthalimide groups have been synthesized by Pd/Cu-catalyzed Sonogashira reaction. These compounds were fully characterized by means of Fourier-transform IR, 1H, 13C NMR, and high resolution mass spectroscopy. The thermal, optical, and electrochemical properties were also investigated. As we expected, the results indicated that these compounds could improve charge-transport ability and fluorescent quantum yield by introducing the electron-transporting emitting moieties naphthalimide and the alkyne group to carbazole moieties.
