title: π-Extended planarized triphenylboranes with thiophene spacers.
abstract: Planarized triphenylboranes extended with thiophene or bithiophene spacers were synthesized, which showed intense fluorescences in solution and reversible redox waves for reduction in cyclic voltammetry. Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) using these compounds as an electron-transporting material were fabricated.
