Fused ring compound and method for producing same, polymer, organic thin film containing those, and organic thin film device and organic thin film transistor comprising such organic thin film

Abstract

It is an object of the present invention to provide a fused ring compound which can exhibit sufficient charge transport properties and which has excellent solubility in a solvent. The fused ring compound according to the present invention is represented by the following general formula (1), wherein R11 and R12 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group, an alkylthio group, an alkylamino group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, an optionally substituted aryl group having 6 to 60 carbon atoms, an optionally substituted heterocyclic group having 4 to 60 carbon atoms, or a cyano group, provided that at least one of R11 and R12 is not a hydrogen atom; R13 and R14 each independently represent a monovalent group, and n and m each independently denote an integer of 0 to 2; and Y11 and Y12 are each independently a divalent group comprising a sulfur atom, an oxygen atom, a nitrogen atom, a selenium atom or a tellurium atom.
