Abstract

A heterocyclic compound represented by Formula 1 below and an organic light-emitting device including the heterocyclic compound: wherein R 1 through R 9 are defined as in the specification.

Claims (24)

1. A heterocyclic compound represented by Formula 1 below:

wherein R 1 is an unsubstituted monocyclic to tetracyclic aryl group selected from the group consisting of a naphthyl group, a biphenyl group, a terphenyl group, an anthracenyl group, a fluorenyl group, and a pyrenyl group; an unsubstituted C 3 -C 60 heteroaryl group; a substituted monocyclic to tetracyclic aryl group selected from the group consisting of a naphthyl group, a biphenyl group, a terphenyl group, an anthracenyl group, a fluorenyl group, and a pyrenyl group which is substituted with a C 1 -C 5 alkyl group, a C 1 -C 5 alkoxy group, a cyano group, an amine group, a phenoxy group, a phenyl group or a halogen group; and a substituted C 3 -C 60 heteroaryl group which is substituted with a C 1 -C 5 alkyl group, a C 1 -C 5 alkoxy group, a cyano group, an amine group, a phenoxy group, a phenyl group, a halogen group, or a C 3 -C 10 heteroaryl group;

R 2 and R 3 are each independently a methyl group or a phenyl group;

R 6 is an unsubstituted monocyclic to tetracyclic aryl group selected from the group consisting of a phenyl group, a naphthyl group, a biphenyl group, a terphenyl group, an anthracenyl group, a fluorenyl group, and a pyrenyl group; an unsubstituted C 3 -C 60 heteroaryl group; an unsubstituted C 5 -C 50 aryl amine group; a substituted monocyclic to tetracyclic aryl group selected from the group consisting of a phenyl group, a naphthyl group, a biphenyl group, a terphenyl group, an anthracenyl group, a fluorenyl group, and a pyrenyl group which is substituted with a C 1 -C 5 alkyl group, a C 1 -C 5 alkoxy group, a cyano group, an amine group, a phenoxy group, a phenyl group or a halogen group; a substituted C 3 -C 60 heteroaryl group which is substituted with a C 1 -C 5 alkyl group, a C 1 -C 5 alkoxy group, a cyano group, an amine group, a phenoxy group, a phenyl group, a halogen group or a C 3 -C 10 heteroaryl group; or a substituted C 5 -C 50 arylamine group which is substituted with a C 1 -C 5 alkyl group, a C 1 -C 5 alkoxy group, a cyano group, an amine group, a phenoxy group, a phenyl group or a halogen group; and

R 4 , R 5 , R 7 , R 8 and R 9 is each independently a hydrogen or a deuterium.

2. A compound of one of the compounds below:
