Aromatic amine derivative and organic electroluminescent element

An aromatic amine derivative, comprising a substituent represented by the following general formula (1):

• wherein
• (i) L1 represents a substituted or unsubstituted arylene group having 6 to 50 ring carbon atoms,
• (ii) L2 represents a single bond, or a substituted or unsubstituted arylene group having 6 to 50 ring carbon atoms,
• provided that an arbitrary substituent for each of L1 and L2 comprises a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl group having 3 to 10 ring carbon atoms, a trialkylsilyl group having 3 to 30 carbon atoms, a triarylsilyl group whose aryl groups each have 6 to 10 ring carbon atoms, an alkylarylsilyl group having 8 to 24 carbon atoms whose aryl portion has 6 to 14 ring carbon atoms, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group having 6 to 30 ring carbon atoms, a halogen atom, or a cyano group, and a plurality of substituents are identical to or different from each other,
• (iii) A represents a linking group represented by any one of formulae (2) to (5):
• wherein
• R1 to R7 each independently represent the same substituent as the arbitrary substituent for each of the L1 and the L2, or a formula -L2-B, wherein B has the same meaning as meaning of B to be described below, and
• a plurality of R1's, R2's, R3's, leis, R5's, R6's or R7's adjacent to each other are optionally bonded to each other to form a saturated or unsaturated ring,
• d represents an integer of 0 to 4,
• a, b, c, e, and f each independently represent an integer of 0 to 3,
• g represents an integer of 0 to 2, and
• Ar1 represents a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group having 6 to 14 ring carbon atoms,
• provided that substituents for Ar1 each independently comprise the same substituent as the arbitrary substituent for each of the L1 and the L2, and
• (iv) B represents a substituent represented by any one of the following general formulae (6) to (9):
• wherein
• R8 to R14 each independently represent the same substituent as the arbitrary substituent for each of the L1 and the L2, or a formula -L2-B, and
• a plurality of R8's, R9's, R10's, R11's, R12's, R13's or R14's adjacent to each other are optionally bonded to each other to form a saturated or unsaturated ring,
• j, k, and m each independently represent an integer of 0 to 4,
• h, l, and n each independently represent an integer of 0 to 3, and
• Ar2 represents a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group having 6 to 14 ring carbon atoms,
• provided that substituents for Ar2 each independently comprise any one of the same substituent as the arbitrary substituent for each of the L1 and the L2 except an aryl group, and a phenyl group, a biphenyl group, a naphthyl group, and a phenanthryl group, and when the A represents a linking group of formula (5), B represents a substituent of formula (6).
