Abstract
A material for electroluminescent devices which comprises a compound in which a heterocyclic group having nitrogen is bonded to carbazolyl group and an organic electroluminescent device having at least one organic thin film layer which is sandwiched between the cathode and the anode and contains the above material in at least one layer, are provided. The material can provide organic electroluminescent devices emitting bluish light with a high purity of color. The organic electroluminescence device uses the material.
Claims7
A material for organic electroluminescence devices which comprises a compound represented by formula (1):
- (Cz-)nMm (1)
- wherein Cz represents a substituted or unsubstituted carbazolyl group;
- M represents a substituted or unsubstituted nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic cyclic group having 2 to 40 carbon atoms;
- n and m each represent an integer of 1 to 3, a plurality of Cz may represent different groups when n represents 2 or 3, and a plurality of M may represent different groups when m represents 2 or 3;
- and
- the substituent for M is at least one group selected from the group consisting of a halogen atom, a carbazole group, a hydroxyl group, a substituted amino group, an unsubstituted amino group, a nitro group, a cyano group, a silyl group, a trifluoromethyl group, a carbonyl group, a carboxyl group, a substituted alkyl group, an unsubstituted alkyl group, a substituted alkenyl group, an unsubstituted alkenyl group, a substituted aromatic group, an unsubstituted aromatic group, a substituted aromatic heterocyclic group, an unsubstituted aromatic heterocyclic group, a substituted aralkyl group, an unsubstituted aralkyl group, a substituted aryloxy group, an unsubstituted aryloxy group, a substituted alkyloxyl group, and an unsubstituted alkyloxyl group;
- provided that M does not represent a triazine group when n represents 3 and m represents 1.
