COMPOUND HAVING CARBAZOLYL GROUP AND USE THEREOF

摘要

Disclosed is a compound having high Tg, which is useful as a material for organic EL devices. A film can be made from the compound by deposition or coating. Also disclosed is a compound which can be suitably used for an organic EL device emitting blue light. Further disclosed is an organic EL device which has achieved excellent characteristics such as low voltage drive, long life and heat resistance by using the compound. Specifically disclosed is a compound represented by general formula [1], which has a carbazolyl group. (In the formula [1], A represents a carbazolyl group represented by general formula [2]; and R1-R9 respectively represent a hydrogen atom or a substituent.) (In the formula [2], Ar1 represents a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent aromatic hydrocarbon group or a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent aromatic heterocyclic group; and R10-R16 independently represent a hydrogen atom or a substituent.)
