View Patent ↗This invention relates to highly reliable organic electroluminescent (EL) materials and devices exhibiting high luminance, high light emitting efficiency, minimal deterioration in light emission, usability at high temperature and good storage stability. The organic electroluminescent device of this invention has intermediate layers such as light emitting layer, hole transport layer, hole injection layer and the like arranged between the anode and the cathode and at least one of the intermediate layers comprises a triarylamine derivative represented by general formula (1) (wherein Ar 1 -Ar 3 are substituted or unsubstituted aryl groups and at least one of Ar 1 -Ar 3 is 9-phenanthryl group represented by general formula (2)); (wherein R 1 -R 9 are H, halogen, alkyl group, aralkyl group, alkenyl group, cyano group, acyl group, alkoxycarbonyl group, alkoxy group or the like).
1. A triarylamine derivative represented by general formula (1)
wherein Ar 1, Ar 2 and Ar 3 are independently phenyl group, phenyl group containing a lower alkyl substituent, phenyl group containing a lower alkoxy substituent, cyanophenyl group, phenoxyphenyl group, halophenyl group, naphthyl group, naphthyl group containing a lower alkyl substituent, naphthyl group containing a lower alkoxy substituent, cyanonaphthyl group, halonaphthyl group, fluorenyl group, carbazolyl group, carbazolyl group containing a lower alkyl substituent, biphenylyl group, biphenylyl group containing a lower alkyl substituent, biphenylyl group containing a lower alkoxy substituent, thiophenyl group, indolyl group, pyridyl group or 9-phenanthryl group represented by general formula (2) and at least two of Ar 1, Ar 2 and Ar 3 are 9-phenanthryl groups represented by general formula (2);
wherein R 1 -R 9 are independently hydrogen, halogen, alkyl group, cyano group, acyl group, alkoxycarbonyl group, alkoxy group, alkylsulfonyl group, or haloalkyl group.
