Abstract: Disclosed is an OLED device comprising a non-gallium host compound and a green light emitting dopant wherein the dopant comprises an N,N′-diarylquinacridone compound optionally containing on the two aryl groups and the quinacridone nucleus only substituent groups having Hammett's &sgr; constant values at least 0.05 more positive than that for a corresponding methyl group, such substituent groups including up to two substituent groups directly on the carbon members of the quinacridone nucleus, provided that said substituent groups do not form a ring fused to the five-ring quinacridone nucleus. Such a device exhibits improved stability, and at the same time, provides high efficiency and good color.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for forming a N,N′-diarylquinacridone compound comprising the step of reacting a 1,4-dialkylcarboxylate-2,5-bis(N -arylamino) benzene with an iodoaryl compound to form the corresponding 2,5 -bis(N-diarylamino) compound. The process is versatile and provides high yields and purity for the synthesis of N,N′-diarylquinacridone compounds.
