BISCARBAZOLE DERIVATIVES AND ORGANIC ELECTROLUMINESCENCE DEVICE EMPLOYING THE SAME

摘要

Provided are an organic electroluminescence device having high current efficiency and a long lifetime, and a biscarbazole derivative for realizing the device. The biscarbazole derivative has a specific substituent. The organic EL device has a plurality of organic thin-film layers including a light emitting layer between a cathode and an anode, and at least one layer of the organic thin-film layers contains the biscarbazole derivative.

主权项

1. A biscarbazole derivative, which is represented by the following formula (1): in the formula (1):
A1 and A2 each independently represent a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic hydrocarbon group having 6 to 30 ring carbon atoms, or a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic heterocyclic group having 2 to 30 ring carbon atoms;Y1 to Y16 each independently represent C(R) or a nitrogen atom, and R's each independently represent a hydrogen atom, a substituent, or a bond to a carbazole skeleton; andL1 and L2 each independently represent a single bond, a substituted or unsubstituted, divalent aromatic hydrocarbon group having 6 to 30 ring carbon atoms, or a substituted or unsubstituted, divalent aromatic heterocyclic group having 2 to 30 ring carbon atoms,provided that:at least one of A1 and A2 represents a substituted or unsubstituted benzofuranyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted dibenzofuranyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted benzothiophenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted dibenzothiophenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted benzonaphthofuranyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted benzonaphthothiophenyl group;when one of A1 and A2 represents a dibenzofuranyl group or a dibenzothiophenyl group, the other represents a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic hydrocarbon group having 6 to 30 ring carbon atoms, or a substituted or unsubstituted benzofuranyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted benzothiophenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted benzonaphthofuranyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted benzonaphthothiophenyl group; andwhen Y6 and Y11 are bonded to each other, the following conditions (i) and (ii) are satisfied:(i) when A1 represents a dibenzofuranyl group or a dibenzothiophenyl group, L1 represents a substituted or unsubstituted, divalent aromatic hydrocarbon group having 6 to 30 ring carbon atoms, or a substituted or unsubstituted, divalent aromatic heterocyclic group having 2 to 30 ring carbon atoms; and(ii) when A2 represents a dibenzofuranyl group or a dibenzothiophenyl group, L2 represents a substituted or unsubstituted, divalent aromatic hydrocarbon group having 6 to 30 ring carbon atoms, or a substituted or unsubstituted, divalent aromatic heterocyclic group having 2 to 30 ring carbon atoms.
