Research has been conducted on the aqua-chromium(III)-dioxolene complexes. The preparation of these complexes and their synthesis carried out in the effort to smooth conversion to oxo-chromium(III) ones are decribed.

Research has been conducted on the heterodinuclear bis(mu-hydroxo)chromium(III)nickel(II) complexes. The preparation and synthesis of these complexes have been carried out and the structures and magneto-structural relationship of the complexes with the modulated magnetic interactions between chromium(III) and nickel(II) ions are discussed.

The synthesis of a six-coordinate bis(Mu-oxo)dinickel(III) complex is reported.

The development of a one-step borylation of 1,3-diaryloxybenzenes, yielding novel boron-containing polycyclic aromatic compounds, is reported. The resulting boron-containing compounds possess high singlet-triplet excitation energies as a result of localized frontier molecular orbitals induced by boron and oxygen. Using these compounds as a host material, we successfully prepared phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes exhibiting high efficiency and adequate lifetimes. Moreover, using the present one-step borylation, we succeeded in the synthesis of an efficient, thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitter and boron-fused benzo[6]helicene.

The triplet-energy control of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) was achieved by heteroatom incorporation. For instance, 4b-aza-12b-boradibenzo[g,p]chrysene showed a much larger ET value than the corresponding PAH, dibenzo[g,p]chrysene, and enable us to built phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PHOLEDs) of high performance. We have also synthesized a variety of heteroatom-incorporated polycyclic aromatics with a large ET value, which improved not only efficiency of PHOLED but also lifetime. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
