Abstract

The present application provides a hetero-cyclic compound capable of greatly enhancing a lifetime, efficiency, electrochemical stability and thermal stability of an organic light emitting device, and an organic light emitting device containing the hetero-cyclic compound in an organic compound layer.

Claims (37)

1. An organic light emitting device comprising:

an anode;

a cathode; and

one or more organic material layers provided between the anode and the cathode,

wherein one or more layers of the organic material layers comprise a hetero-cyclic compound represented by the following Chemical Formula 1:

in Chemical Formula 1,

at least one of R1 and R2, R3 and R4, R5 and R6, R6 and R7, and R7 and R8 bond to each other to form a hydrocarbon fused ring or a hetero fused ring;

the rest are the same as or different from each other, and each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen; deuterium; a halogen group; —CN; a substituted or unsubstituted C 1 to C 60 alkyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 to C 60 alkenyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 to C 60 alkynyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 1 to C 60 alkoxy group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 3 to C 60 cycloalkyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 to C 60 heterocycloalkyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 6 to C 60 aryl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 to C 60 heteroaryl group; —SiRR′R″; —P(═O)RR′; and an amine group unsubstituted or substituted with a C 1 to C 20 alkyl group, a C 6 to C 60 aryl group, or a C 2 to C 60 heteroaryl group;

L is a direct bond, a substituted or unsubstituted C 6 to C 60 arylene group, or a C 2 to C 60 heteroarylene group;

Z of Chemical Formula 1 is selected from among the following structural formulae:

in the structural formulae, R9 is a C6 to C60 aryl group,

m is an integer of 0 to 4;

n is an integer of 1 to 4; and

R, R′ and R″ are the same as or different from each other, and each independently hydrogen; deuterium; —CN; a substituted or unsubstituted C 1 to C 60 alkyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 3 to C 60 cycloalkyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 6 to C 60 aryl group; or a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 to C 60 heteroaryl group.

2. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the groups that do not form a hydrocarbon fused ring or a hetero fused ring among R1 to R8 of Chemical Formula 1 are each independently hydrogen or deuterium.

3. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein Chemical Formula 1 is represented by any one of the following Chemical Formulae 2 to 6:

in Chemical Formulae 2 to 6,

R1 to R8 are the same as or different from each other, and each independently hydrogen; deuterium; a halogen group; —CN; a substituted or unsubstituted C 1 to C 60 alkyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 to C 60 alkenyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 to C 60 alkynyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 1 to C 60 alkoxy group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 3 to C 60 cycloalkyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 to C 60 heterocycloalkyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 6 to C 60 aryl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 to C 60 heteroaryl group; -SiRR′R″; —P(═O)RR′; and an amine group unsubstituted or substituted with a C 1 to C 20 alkyl group, a C 6 to C 60 aryl group, or a C 2 to C 60 heteroaryl group;

L is a direct bond, a substituted or unsubstituted C 6 to C 60 arylene group, or a C 2 to C 60 heteroarylene group;

Z of Chemical Formula 1 is selected from among the following structural formulae:

in the structural formulae, R9 is a C6 to C60 aryl group,

X is S; O; NR; or CR′R″;

m is an integer of 0 to 4;

n is an integer of 1 to 4; and

R, R′ and R″ are the same as or different from each other, and each independently hydrogen; deuterium; —CN; a substituted or unsubstituted C 1 to C 60 alkyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 3 to C 60 cycloalkyl group; a substituted or unsubstituted C 6 to C 60 aryl group; or a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 to C 60 heteroaryl group.

4. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein L of Chemical Formula 1 is selected from among the following structural formulae:

5. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein Chemical Formula 1 is represented by any one of the following compounds:

6. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the organic material layer comprises at least one of a hole blocking layer, an electron injection layer and an electron transfer layer, and at least one of the hole blocking layer, the electron injection layer and the electron transfer layer comprises the hetero-cyclic compound.

7. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the organic material layer comprises a light emitting layer, and the light emitting layer comprises the hetero-cyclic compound.

8. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the organic material layer comprises one or more of a hole injection layer, a hole transfer layer, and a layer carrying out hole injection and hole transfer at the same time, and one of the layers comprises the hetero-cyclic compound.

9. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 , wherein the organic material layer comprises a charge generation layer, and the charge generation layer comprises the hetero-cyclic compound.

10. The organic light emitting device of claim 1 comprising:

an anode;
