Abstract
Cyclometalated iridium complexes are a specific class of transition metal chromophores (TMCs) widely employed as phosphors in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), as photoredox catalysts, and increasingly as non-linear optical (NLO) materials. This research investigated the effect of derivatization on the parent complex [Ir(pbt)2(acac)], where pbt is 2-phenylbenzothiazole and acac is acetylacetonate. Specifically, hole transport groups, either triphenylamines or carbazoles, were installed at different positions along the pbt ligand framework. The chemical syntheses, electrochemistry, and photophysics of these complexes will be discussed in detail with reference to our previous work and the parent complex.
