General description

Phenothiazine is a versatile building block that can be easily functionalized as it possesses multiple modification sites. Its unique butterfly configuration and electron-rich character are beneficial for its potential use in optoelectronic applications. As it can undergo fast and reversible electron transfer reactions, it is widely used as photoactive material in organic light-emitting devices and solar cells.

Application

Phenothiazine can be used in the following applications:
  • It can be connected to carbazole by C-N linkage to increase the hole mobility and thermal stability in organic light-emitting devices.
  • Used in the fabrication of CMA-based (Carbene-Metal-Amide) white light-emitting OLED.
  • It is used as a starting material in the synthesis of dialdehyde monomer. A conjugated copolymer is prepared using this dialdehyde monomer, which is applicable as an emitting layer in PLED.
  • Used as a building block in the synthesis of conjugated dendrimers, for the development of light-emitting devices.

A series of thienylphenothiazine decorated carbazoles were synthesized and characterized by optical, electrochemical, thermal, and theoretical investigations. Absorption spectra of the compounds are influenced by the substitution pattern and chromophore number density. Compounds containing 2,7-substitution exhibited red-shifted absorption, while the
