N-heterocyclic carbene copper(Ⅰ) complexes have received great attention in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). However, a perusal of the literature shows that the three-coordinated species are widely studied, while studies on the luminescent properties of the four-coordinated NHC-Cu(Ⅰ) complexes is very scarce. With the aim of expanding this work, and motivated by the rich photophysical properties of the four-coordinated NHC-Cu(Ⅰ) complexes, we now present the preparation of the two four-coordinated NHC-Cu(Ⅰ) complexes. The N-heterocyclic carbene ligands, (Ph-Im-flumePy)PF₆ and (Ph-BenIm-mePy)PF₆, were synthesized by using imidazole, benzimidazole, benzyl bromide and 2-bromo-5-fluoro-6-methylpyridine as starting materials. Then the ligands were reacted with Cu powder and bis(2-diphenylphosphino)phenyl ether (POP) to synthesize the four-coordinated N-heterocyclic carbene copper(Ⅰ) complexes[Cu(Ph-Im-flumePy)(POP)]PF₆ (P1) and[Cu(Ph-BenIm-flumePy)(POP)]PF₆ (P2). The resulting complexes were characterized by ¹H NMR and HRMS. The optical properties of the complexes were systematically investigated by measuring the UV-visible absorption spectra, luminescence spectra and phosphorescence lifetime of the complexes. The results show that the complex P1 and P2 displayed the lowest-absorption peak around at 325 and 335 nm, respectively. In the powder state, complex P1 exhibited strong green emission at 514 nm with 82.6% photoluminescence quantum yield (QY), as well as a 56 μs excited state lifetime at room temperature, while complex P2 showed the emission peak centered at 516 nm with the QY value of 49.2%, as well as the excited state lifetime of 50.6 μs. In the PMMA films (10%, w/w), complex P1 showed the emission wavelength at 505 nm and had the QY of 38.0% and the excited state lifetime of 40.7 μs, whereas complex P2 exhibited the strong green emission at 508 nm with the QY of 44.2% and the excited state lifetime of 61 μs.
