Abstract

A light-emitting device comprising a pair of electrodes and one or more organic layers disposed between the electrodes, the one or more organic layers comprising a light-emitting layer. At least one of the organic layers comprises a transition metal complex containing a moiety represented by the following formula (1): wherein M 11 represents a transition metal ion; and R 11 , R 12 , R 13 , R 14 , R 15 , R 16 and R 17 represent a substituent or a single bond, respectively, or a tautomer thereof.

Claims (4)

1. A light-emitting device comprising a pair of electrodes and one or more organic layers disposed between said electrodes, said one or more organic layers comprising a light-emitting layer, wherein at least one of said one or more organic layers comprises a transition metal complex containing a moiety represented by the following formula (11):

wherein M 111 represents a transition metal ion; Q 111 represents an atomic group forming a ring; Q 112 represents an atomic group forming a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic ring; EWG 111 represents an electron-withdrawing group; n111 represents an integer of 1 or more; and R 111 , R 112 , R 113 , R 114 , R 115 , R 116 and R 117 represent a substituent.

2. The light-emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein said transition metal complex contains a moiety represented by the following formula (12):

wherein R 201 , R 202 , R 203 , R 204 , R 205 , R 206 , R 207 and R 208 represent a hydrogen atom or a substituent, at least one of R 201 , R 202 , R 203 and R 204 being a fluorine atom; R 211 , R 212 , R 213 , R 214 , R 215 , R 216 and R 217 represent a substituent; and n131 and n132 are 1 or 2.
