Dyads were prepared to understand the electronic effects of a meta-terphenyl linker according to the accepting ability change. The charge transfer properties in the ground/excited state are determined by accepting ability and/or steric hindrance.

Abstract Intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) plays a critical role in determining the photophysical properties of organic molecules, including their luminescence efficiencies. Twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) is a process in which structural change accompanies ICT. Despite significant research, the relationship between TICT and solvent polarity, and its effects on photophysical properties, have been rarely investigated. Herein, we used time-resolved spectroscopy to study TICT in pyrene derivatives that are promising blue organic light emitting diode (OLED) emitter candidates; these derivatives show strong solvent-dependent charge-transfer (CT) behavior. Slight structural changes that do not affect excited state dynamics were observed in nonpolar solvents, while polar solvents were found to affect excited state dynamics and CT characteristics. The TICT behavior of these pyrene derivatives could be modulated through structural modification. Our study provides valuable guidelines for the control of optical properties, including the luminescence efficiencies of OLED emitters that show TICT characteristics.
