Organic electroluminescence device

An organic electroluminescence device having one or more organic thin layers including a luminescent layer between an anode and a cathode, wherein at least one of the organic thin layers contains at least one of compounds selected from the group consisting of the compounds represented by general formulas I, II, III, and IV, alone or in combination;

• wherein R11 to R118 independently represent hydrogen, halogen, hydroxy, a substituted or unsubstituted amino, nitro, cyano, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, a substituted or unsubstituted alkenyl, a substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, a substituted or unsubstituted alkoxy, a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic hydrocarbon, a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic heterocycle, a substituted or unsubstituted aralkyl, a substituted or unsubstituted aryloxy, a substituted or unsubstituted alkoxycarbonyl, or carboxyl groups;
• or two of R11 to R19 or two of R110 to R118 may be combined together to form a ring, although at least one of R11 to R118 is a diarylamino group represented by —NAr11Ar12 wherein Ar11 and Ar12 independently represent a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group having 6 to 20 carbon atoms;
