Synthesis and characterization of novel orange-emitting iridium(III) complexes with diphenylquinoline ligands containing fluorinated substituent

Three new cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes based on ligands of diphenylquinoline with fluorinated substituents were prepared, and characterized by elemental analysis (EA), H-1 NMR, and mass spectroscopy (MS). The photophysical and electrophosphorescent properties of the complexes were briefly discussed.
