2. Physical & Chemical Properties
Physical Properties
- Appearance: Bright yellow crystalline powder, emits strong blue fluorescence under UV light

- Density (25℃): 1.18 g/cm3
- Optical performance: Strong blue fluorescence; maximum absorption ~370 nm, emission peak ~445 nm
- Thermal resistance: Stable below 270 ℃, suitable for high-temperature vacuum evaporation of OLED devices
- Hygroscopy: Non-hygroscopic
- Sublimation property: Can be sublimated under high vacuum and high temperature without large decomposition
- Crystal feature: High-purity sample forms uniform needle-like crystals after recrystallization from chlorobenzene
Chemical Properties
- Conjugated molecular structure: Central benzene ring connected with two trans-styryl groups, terminal cyano groups extend large π-conjugated system, typical organic conjugated luminescent material
- Cyano group characteristics: Electron-withdrawing cyano group enhances fluorescence quantum efficiency, improves electron transport performance; stable under neutral and weak acid conditions
- Thermal stability: Long-term heating over 295 ℃ causes carbonization, conjugated chain fracture, fluorescence quenching
- Acid-base stability: Stable in neutral and weak alkaline environments; strong concentrated alkali heating leads to cyano hydrolysis into carboxyl impurities; concentrated strong acid destroys conjugated alkene double bonds
- Photostability: Good anti-photobleaching ability among organic blue light materials; long-term high-power UV irradiation slowly reduces luminous efficiency
- Oxidation resistance: Not easy to oxidize in air at room temperature; incompatible with strong oxidants
- Trans-cis isomerization: UV light or high temperature may induce partial cis double bond isomerization to reduce luminous performance
- Compatibility: Compatible with aromatic solvents, hole/electron transport materials for OLED; incompatible with strong oxidants, concentrated strong acid, strong alkali
