<p>Provided is a polymeric fluorescent substance which emits fluorescence in the solid state, has a polystyrene-reduced number-average molecular weight of 1 x 10<3> to 1 x 10<7>, and has at least one repeating unit of formula (1): - Ar1-(CR1=CR2)k- wherein Ar1 is a divalent group forming carbon-carbon bonds with each of the adjacent two groups, the divalent group is an arylene group having 6 to 60 carbon atoms which participates in conjugation or a heterocyclic group having 4 to 60 carbon atoms which participates in conjugation, and the arylene group and heterocyclic group may further have one or more substituents; each of R1 and R2 independently represent a group selected from hydrogen atom, linear, branched or cyclic alkyl groups having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, aryl groups having 6 to 60 carbon atoms, heterocyclic groups having 4 to 60 carbon atoms and cyano group, and the aryl group and heterocyclic group may further have one or more substituents; and the symbol k is 0 or 1; the water content measured by the Karl-Fischer method being not more than 1000 ppm by weight, and/or the content of poor solvent measured by the gas chromatography method being not more than 10000 ppm by weight. Also provided is an organic electroluminescence device comprising at least one light-emitting layer comprising a polymeric fluorescent substance, placed between an anode and a cathode at least one of which is transparent or semitransparent, wherein the light-emitting layer comprises substantially no particle-like foreign material having a diameter of more than 1 mu m.</p> |
