Three donor–acceptor (D–A) compounds (PTZ-10-AnP, PTZ-10P-AnP, and PTZ-3-AnP) were designed and synthesized through linking the same D and A units with different architectures. The structural change, mainly referring to the torsion angle and distance between D and A, gives rise to the significantly different CT level positions for these compounds. The CT state of PTZ-10-AnP locates at the lowest excited state, while that of PTZ-10P-AnP stays at the higher excited state. For PTZ-3-AnP, the CT energy is close to that of the locally π–π* excited state, and a hybridized local and charge-transfer (HLCT) state dominates the S1state. Photophysical experiment data of these compounds demonstrate that the energy level of the charge-transfer (CT) state plays a decisive role in the emissive state properties of donor–acceptor (D–A) compounds. In addition, the exciton utilization efficiency of the PTZ-3-AnP device exceeds the limit of the spin statistics, which enlightens the molecular design toward harvesting triplet excitons in fluorescent organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs).
