METAL COMPLEX, LUMINESCENT SOLID, ORGANIC EL ELEMENT, AND ORGANIC EL DISPLAY

摘要

This invention provides a metal complex, which emits phosphorescence and is suitable as a luminescent material, a color conversion material and the like, for example, in organic EL elements and lighting equipment, and the like. The metal complex is characterized by comprising a metal atom, a tridentate ligand, which is attached to the metal atom in a tridentate form through three nitrogen atoms, first, second, and third nitrogen atoms, and a monodentate ligand attached to the metal atom. An embodiment represented by general formula (1) is preferred.
