Developing solution‐processable red organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) with high color purity and efficiency based on multiple resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR‐TADF) is a formidable challenge. Herein, by introducing auxiliary electron donor and acceptor moieties into the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) distributed positions of multiple resonance skeleton simultaneously, an effective strategy to obtain red MR‐TADF emitters was represented. The proof‐of‐the‐concept molecule BN‐R exhibits a narrowband pure‐red emission at 624 nm, with a high luminous efficiency of 94 % and a narrow bandwidth of 46 nm. Notably, the fabricated solution‐processable pure‐red OLED based on BN‐R exhibits a state‐of‐the‐art external quantum efficiency over 20 % with the Commission Internationale de I’Éclairage coordinates of (0.663, 0.337) and a long operational lifetime (LT 50 ) of 1088 hours at an initial luminance of 1000 cd m −2 .
