Novel bis- and tris-cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes bearing a benzoyl group on each fluorinated 2-phenylpyridinate ligand were developed, aimed at the development of blue phosphorescent materials for organic light-emitting diodes (OLED). When acetylacetonate (acac) was employed as an ancillary ligand, the emission wavelength (λPL) of the 5′-benzoylated bis-cyclometalated complex was blue-shifted up to 479 nm (in dichloromethane at rt, emitting bluish green) in combination with fluorine substituents. Ancillary ligand replacement in the 2-(5-benzoyl-4,6-difluorophenyl)pyridinate-based bis-cyclometalated complex from acac to picolinate gave rise to a further blue shift of λPL to 464 nm, and sky-blue emission was observed. The 2-(5-benzoyl-4,6-difluorophenyl)pyridinate-based homoleptic tris-cyclometalated complex exhibited a more blue-shifted λPL at 463 nm than any other bis- and tris-cyclometalated complexes developed here, emitting sky blue with a photoluminescence quantum yield of 0.90 (in dichloromethane at rt). Using this sky-blue phosphorescent tris-cyclometalated complex as an emitting dopant, a poly(9-vinylcarbazole)-based OLED was fabricated, and excellent blue emission with a Commission Internationale de L'eclairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinate of (0.16, 0.28) was observed, where an external quantum efficiency (ηext) of 1.81% was obtained. The OLED performance was drastically improved by using a solution-processed double-emitting layer device structure, and ηexts of 8.55 and 7.46% were achieved for the present sky-blue phosphorescent bis- and tris-cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes, respectively (CIE chromaticity coordinates: (0.17, 0.33) and (0.17, 0.29), respectively).
