Abstract:
Compounds and compositions are provided that can be used as electron transport agents in organic electronic devices such as organic electroluminescent devices. The compounds are non-polymeric and have an aromatic core conjugated to end capping groups. The aromatic core contains a phenylene group arylene or naphthalene group arylene having a pendant heteroaryl group that includes a —C═N— unit.
