- Ar is the same or different at each instance and is an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system which has 5 to 60 aromatic ring atoms and may be substituted by one or more R1 radicals;
- R1 is the same or different at each instance and is H, D, F, Cl, Br, I, B(OR2)2, CHO, C(═O)R2, CR2═C(R2)2, CN, C(═O)OR2, C(═O)N(R2)2, Si(R2)3, N(R2)2, NO2, P(═O)(R2)2, OSO2R2, OR2, S(═O)R2, S(═O)2R2, a straight-chain alkyl, alkoxy or thioalkoxy group having 1 to 40 carbon atoms or a branched or cyclic alkyl, alkoxy or thioalkoxy group having 3 to 40 carbon atoms, each of which may be substituted by one or more R2 radicals, where one or more nonadjacent CH2 groups may be replaced by —R2C═CR2—, —C≡C—, Si(R2)2, Ge(R2)2, Sn(R2)2, C═O, C═S, C═Se, C═NR2, NR2, P(═O)(R2), —C(═O)O—, —C(═O)NR2—, —O—, —S—, SO or SO2 and where one or more hydrogen atoms may be replaced by D, F, Cl, Br, I, CN or NO2, or an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system which has 5 to 40 aromatic ring atoms and may be substituted in each case by one or more R2 radicals, or an aryloxy or heteroaryloxy group which has 5 to 40 aromatic ring atoms and may be substituted by one or more R2 radicals, or an aralkyl or heteroaralkyl group which has 5 to 40 aromatic ring atoms and may be substituted by one or more R2 radicals, or a diarylamino group, diheteroarylamino group or arylheteroarylamino group which has 10 to 40 aromatic ring atoms and may be substituted by one or more R2 radicals;
- or a combination of these systems;
- at the same time, two or more R1 radicals together may form a ring system;
- R2 is the same or different at each instance and is H, D, F, Cl, Br, I, B(OR3)2, CHO, C(═O)R3, CR3═C(R3)2, CN, C(═O)OR3, C(═O)N(R3)2, Si(R3)3, N(R3)2, NO2, P(═O)(R3)2, OSO2R3, OR3, S(═O)R3, S(═O)2R3, a straight-chain alkyl, alkoxy or thioalkoxy group having 1 to 40 carbon atoms or a branched or cyclic alkyl, alkoxy or thioalkoxy group having 3 to 40 carbon atoms, each of which may be substituted by one or more R3 radicals, where one or more nonadjacent CH2 groups may be replaced by —R3C═CR3—, —C≡C—, Si(R3)2, Si(R3)2, Ge(R3)2, Sn(R3)2, C═O, C═S, C═Se, C═NR3, NR3, P(═O)(R3), —C(═O)O—, —C(═O)NR3—, —O—, —S—, SO or SO2 and where one or more hydrogen atoms may be replaced by D, F, Cl, Br, I, CN or NO2, or an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system which has 5 to 40 aromatic ring atoms and may be substituted in each case by one or more R3 radicals, or an aryloxy or heteroaryloxy group which has 5 to 40 aromatic ring atoms and may be substituted by one or more R3 radicals, or an aralkyl or heteroaralkyl group which has 5 to 40 aromatic ring atoms and may be substituted by one or more R3 radicals, or a diarylamino group, diheteroarylamino group or arylheteroarylamino group which has 10 to 40 aromatic ring atoms and may be substituted by one or more R3 radicals, or a combination of these systems;
- at the same time, two or more R2 substituents together may also form a ring system;
- R3 is the same or different at each instance and is H, D, F or an aliphatic, aromatic and/or heteroaromatic hydrocarbyl radical having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, in which hydrogen atoms may also be replaced by F;
- at the same time, two or more R3 substituents together may also form a ring system.
