Extended π-conjugated system have received continuous attention in the filed of organic light-emitting materials due to obtaing high efficienct, stable, pure blue light emitting materials. In this study, a series of fluorescent dyes based on carbazole and 1,8-naphthalimide derivatives introducing acetylene linkage have been synthesized by Sonogashira coupling reaction. The structures of synthesized fluorescent dyes were characterized by 1H NMR spectroscopy and MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometer. The optical, electrochemical and thermal properties of synthesized fluorescent dyes were systematically characterized by time dependent density functional theory(TD-DFT) using Gaussian 09 program with the hybrid B3LYP exchange correlation function and the 6-31G basis set. Fluorescent dyes introducing acetylene linkage in carbazole exhibits good hole transporting ability in diphenylamine and benzophenone core. Fluorescent dyes 1-3, 7, 8 with higher energy levels would be more readily to donate electrons due to π-π conjugation effect which leads to a rise in HOMO energy. In the case of Fluorescent dyes introducing acetylene lingkage in 1,8-naphthalimide, good electron transporting ability is exhibited in core group. Energy band gap electrochemically estimated was modulated from 3.02 to 3.97 eV. Synthesized fluorescent dyes has thermostability at 280℃.
