1. A composition comprising a compound group α for organic electroluminescent element and a solvent, wherein:
the compound group α is constituted of at least two kinds of compounds which each have a molecular weight of 3,000 or less and have a structure comprising a plurality of aromatic ring groups linked to each other;
the compound group α comprises a first compound α1, which is the smallest in the number of aromatic ring groups, a second compound α2, optionally a third compound α3, and optionally a fourth compound α4;
when a structure which is the largest in the number of the aromatic ring groups, of partial structures that are common between the compound α1 and the compounds α2, α3, and α4, is taken as a basic framework, 60% or more of the structure of the compound α1 is identical with the basic framework;
the compounds which constitute the compound group α each is mixed in an amount of 1% by weight or larger; and
each of the compounds included in the compound group α is any of the compounds represented by formulae (A-5) and (A-6):
wherein R 20 to R 53 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, a nitrogen atom, an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom, an aromatic hydrocarbon ring group which has 6-30 carbon atoms and may have a substituent, or a heteroaromatic ring group which has 3-30 carbon atoms and may have a substituent, with the proviso that when R 20 to R 53 each are a nitrogen atom, an oxygen atom, or a sulfur atom, this atom combines with part of an adjoining substituent to form a ring.
2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the proportion of the compound group α to all solid components of the composition is 0.1-100% by weight.
3. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the proportion of the solvent in the composition is 10% by weight or higher.

5. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the compounds included in the compound group α are represented by only one formula selected from the group consisting of formulae (A-5) and (A-6).
6. An organic electroluminescent element, comprising:
an anode;
a cathode; and
at least one organic layer interposed between the anode and the cathode,
wherein at least one of the organic layer(s) is a layer formed using the composition for organic electroluminescent element of claim 1 .
7. The organic electroluminescent element of claim 6 , wherein the layer formed using the composition for organic electroluminescent element is an emissive layer.
8. A display, comprising the organic electroluminescent element of claim 6 .
9. A lighting, comprising:
the organic electroluminescent element of claim 6 .
10. A composition comprising a compound group α for organic electroluminescent element and a solvent, wherein;
the compound group α is constituted of at least two kinds of compounds which each have a molecular weight of 3,000 or less and have a structure comprising a plurality of aromatic ring groups linked to each other;
the compound group α comprises a first compound α1, which is the smallest in the number of aromatic ring groups, a second compound α2, and optionally a third compound α3;
when a structure which is the largest in the number of the aromatic ring groups, of partial structures that are common between the compound α1 and the compounds α2 and α3, is taken as a basic framework, 60% or more of the structure of the compound α1 is identical with the basic framework;
the compounds which constitute the compound group α each is mixed in an amount of 1% by weight or larger; and
each of the compounds included in the compound group α is any of the compounds represented by formulae (A-5) and (A-6):
wherein R 20 to R 53 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, a nitrogen atom, an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom, an aromatic hydrocarbon ring group which has 6-30 carbon atoms and may have a substituent, or a heteroaromatic ring group which has 3-30 carbon atoms and may have a substituent, with the proviso that when R 20 to R 53 each are a nitrogen atom, an oxygen atom, or a sulfur atom, this atom combines with part of an adjoining substituent to form a ring.
