Zusammenfassung:In order to improve the performance of organic luminescent materials, lots of studies have been carried out at the molecular level. However, these materials are mostly applied as solids or aggregates in practical applications, in which the relationship between aggregation structure and luminescent property should be paid more attention. Here, we obtained five phenothiazine 5,5‐dioxide (O‐PTZ) derivatives with distinct molecular conformations by rational design of chemical structures, and systematically studied their room‐temperature phosphorescence (RTP) effect in solid state. It was found that O‐PTZ dimers with quasi‐equatorial (eq) conformation tended to show stronger π‐π interaction than quasi‐axial (ax) conformers in crystal state, which was more conducive to the generation of RTP. Based on this result, a multi‐level structural model of organic solids was proposed to draw the relationship between aggregation structure and RTP effect, just like the research for the structure‐property relationship of proteins. Using this structural model as the guide, boosted RTP efficiency from 1% to 20% was successfully achieved in the corresponding host‐guest doping system, showing its wide applicability. Five phenothiazine 5,5‐dioxide (O‐PTZ) derivatives with distinct molecular conformations were obtained, and their room‐temperature phosphorescence (RTP) effects were studied. It was found that O‐PTZ dimers with quasi‐equatorial (eq) conformation were more conducive to generate RTP than quasi‐axial (ax)‐ones in crystal state. Accordingly, a multi‐level structural model of organic solids was proposed to draw the relationship between aggregation structure and RTP effect.
