Abstract
Metal-free ultralong organic phosphorescence (UOP) materials have attracted significant attention owing to their anomalous photophysical properties and potential applications in various fields. Here, three pyrimidine-based organic luminogens, 9-(pyrimidin-2-yl)-9H-carbazole, 9-(4,6-dimethylpyrimidin-2-yl)-9H-carbazole, and 9-(5-bromopyrimidin-2-yl)-9H-carbazole are designed and synthesized, which show efficient yellow UOP with the longest lifetimes up to 1.37 s and the highest absolute phosphorescence quantum yields up to 23.6% under ambient conditions. Theoretical calculations, crystal structures, and photophysical properties of these compounds reveal that intramolecular hydrogen bonding, intermolecular π-π interactions, and intermolecular electronic coupling are responsible for forming dimers and generating highly efficient UOP. Their efficacy as solid materials for data encryption is demonstrated.
