Uses
3,6-Di-
tert-butylcarbazole is mainly used as a monomeric precursor in the syntheses of new carbazole based materials which consist of ethynylphenyl. These materials include 9-(4-bromophenyl)-3,6-di-
tert-butylcarbazol and 2-(4-(2-(4-(3,6-di-
tert-butyl-9H-carbazol-9-yl)phenyl)ethynyl)benzylidene)malononitrile (PBM) which can be further be used in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) and optical switching devices.
General Description
3,6-Di-
tert-butylcarbazole is a carbazole based material with hole transporting characteristics. The 3,6-Di-
tert-butyl component of the carbazole results in an increase in the glass transition temperature (T
g) of the compound. It can be used in combination with another carbazole to form novel electroluminescent materials.
