Four blue-emitting thienyltriazoles with desired N and O coordination atoms were prepared in high yield via click chemistry for potential incorporation into metal complexes. Three of their crystal structures were determined by X-ray crystallography. The electrochemical properties, electronic structures of these thienyltriazoles, 1-4, and their correlations were studied using cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry techniques along with density function theory (DFT) calculations. All of the compounds underwent irreversible redox reactions, leading to unstable electrogenerated radical cations and anions. Electrochemical gaps determined from the differences between first formal reduction and oxidation reactions were correlated to HOMO-LUMO energy gaps obtained from UV-vis spectroscopy and the DFT calculations as well as energies of excited states measured from photoluminescence spectroscopy. We observed weak electrochemiluminescence (ECL) from annihilation of these thienyltriazole radicals in acetonitrile containing 0.1 M tetra-n-butylammonium perchlorate as electrolyte. An enhancement in ECL efficiency ranging from 0.16 to 0.50% was observed upon addition of benzoyl peroxide as a coreactant in the above electrolyte solutions. The generation of excimers in solutions of 1-4 was observed as seen by the red-shift in ECL maxima relative to their corresponding photoluminescence peak wavelengths. Our work is of importance for the development of efficient blue-emitting fluorophores via click chemistry that could be potential luminophores in metal complexes.
