The invention provides a red organic electrophosphorescent material
iridium metal complex with the structure represented by formula (1). In the formula (1), each of R1 and R2 is a
methyl group. The red organic electrophosphorescent material
iridium metal complex is prepared through the following steps: carrying out a Suzuki
coupling reaction on an
iridium metal complex to prepare a cyclomedtalating ligand, carrying out a
polymerization reaction on the cyclomedtalating ligand and
chromium trichloride hexahydrate in a 2-ethoxyethanol and water mixed
solvent to obtain a chlorendic
dimer, and carrying out a complex reaction on the chlorendic
dimer and an auxiliary ligand 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedione to obtain the red organic electrophosphorescent material iridium metal complex represented by formula (1). The above material has good energy transmission efficiency and appropriate
red light emitting
wavelength, and can be widely used to make red or white phosphorescent electroluminescent devices in order to reduce the
power consumption of the devices, improve the performances of the devices and prolong the life of the devices.
