ORGANIC ELECTROLUMINESCENT DEVICE COMPRISING A COMPOUND HAVING TRIAZINE RING STRUCTURE SUBSTITUTED WITH PYRIDYL GROUP

摘要

The present invention is to provide an organic compound having excellent characteristics as a material for an organic EL device having a high efficiency and a high durability, and to provide an organic EL device having a high efficiency and a high durability using the compound. The invention relates to a compound having a triazine ring structure having pyridyl groups attached thereto, which is represented by the general formula (1); and to an organic electroluminescent device comprising a pair of electrodes and at least one organic layer interposed between the electrodes, wherein the compound is used as a constituent material of at least one of the organic layer(s):
wherein Ar represents a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic hydrocarbon group, a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic heterocyclic group, or a substituted or unsubstituted condensed polycyclic aromatic group; R1 to R8 may be the same or different from one another and each independently represents a hydrogen atom, a fluorine atom, a trifluoromethyl group, a cyano group, an alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic hydrocarbon group, a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic heterocyclic group, or a substituted or unsubstituted condensed polycyclic aromatic group.
