本発明の化合物および本発明の有機電界発光素子用材料は、前記一般式(1)で表されることを特徴とする。
本発明の有機電界発光素子は、基板と、該基板上に配置され、陽極及び陰極からなる一対の電極と、該電極間に配置され、発光層を含む少なくとも一層の有機層とを有し、前記有機層の少なくとも一層に前記一般式(1)で表される化合物を含むことを特徴とする。
有機電界発光素子の素子構成、基板、陰極及び陽極については、例えば、特開2008-270736号公報に詳述されており、該公報に記載の事項を本発明に適用することができる。
以下、本発明の有機電界発光素子の好ましい態様について、基板、電極、有機層、保護層、封止容器、駆動方法、発光波長、用途の順で詳細に説明する。
本発明の有機電界発光素子は、基板を有する。
本発明で使用する基板としては、有機層から発せられる光を散乱又は減衰させない基板であることが好ましい。有機材料の場合には、耐熱性、寸法安定性、耐溶剤性、電気絶縁性、及び加工性に優れていることが好ましい。

発光素子の性質上、一対の電極である陽極及び陰極のうち少なくとも一方の電極は、透明若しくは半透明であることが好ましい。
陽極は、通常、有機層に正孔を供給する電極としての機能を有していればよく、その形状、構造、大きさ等については特に制限はなく、発光素子の用途、目的に応じて、公知の電極材料の中から適宜選択することができる。前述のごとく、陽極は、通常透明陽極として設けられる。

以下、本発明の有機電界発光素子における、有機層の構成、有機層の形成方法、有機層を構成する各層の好ましい態様および各層に使用される材料について順に説明する。
本発明の有機電界発光素子では、前記有機層が、電荷輸送層を含むことが好ましい。前記電荷輸送層とは、有機電界発光素子に電圧を印加した際に電荷移動が起こる層をいう。具体的には正孔注入層、正孔輸送層、電子ブロック層、発光層、正孔ブロック層、電子輸送層又は電子注入層が挙げられる。
本発明の有機電界発光素子では、前記燐光発光材料を含む発光層とその他の有機層を有し、前記有機層が前記一般式(1)で表される化合物を含む。このとき、前記一般式(1)で表される化合物が含まれる場所に特に制限はないが、前記発光層が前記一般式(1)で表される化合物を含有することが好ましい。このとき、前記一般式(1)で表される化合物が、発光層のホスト化合物として用いられることが好ましい。さらに、本発明の有機電界発光素子では、前記有機層が、前記燐光発光材料を含む発光層とその他の有機層を有すことがより好ましい。但し、本発明の有機電界発光素子は、前記有機層が発光層とその他の有機層を有する場合であっても、必ずしも明確に層間が区別されなくてもよい。
これらの有機層は、それぞれ複数層設けてもよく、複数層設ける場合には同一の材料で形成してもよいし、層毎に異なる材料で形成してもよい。
本発明の有機電界発光素子において、各有機層は、蒸着法やスパッタ法等の乾式製膜法、転写法、印刷法、スピンコート法、バーコート法等の湿式製膜法(溶液塗布法)のいずれによっても好適に形成することができる。

前記発光層は、電界印加時に、陽極、正孔注入層又は正孔輸送層から正孔を受け取り、陰極、電子注入層又は電子輸送層から電子を受け取り、正孔と電子の再結合の場を提供して発光させる機能を有する層である。但し、本発明における前記発光層は、このようなメカニズムによる発光に必ずしも限定されるものではない。本発明の有機電界発光素子における発光層は、少なくとも一種の燐光発光材料を含有することが好ましい。
以下、前記発光層の材料として、前記一般式(1)で表される化合物、前記燐光発光材料、前記一般式(1)で表される化合物以外のその他のホスト材料について順に説明する。なお、前記一般式(1)で表される化合物は、本発明の有機電界発光素子において前記発光層以外に用いられてもよい。
WO2010/131855号公報などに記載のフェニルカルバゾールは、カルバゾールのNとフェニル基のCの間の結合が切れることが劣化素子後の分解物解析の結果、報告されている(J.Appl.Phys. 2007, 101, 024512)。これに対し、下記一般式(1)で表されるインドロカルバゾール骨格またはインドロカルバゾール骨格の炭素原子の特定の位置を窒素原子に置換した骨格を有する化合物は、得られる有機電界発光素子の耐久性を高めることができる。いかなる理由に拘泥するものでもないが、本発明者らは、上記の論文から示唆されるように、耐久性を悪化させる原因は上記の結合開裂にあると考えており、結合開裂の抑制または結合開裂後の再結合の促進により、下記一般式(1)で表されるインドロカルバゾール骨格またはインドロカルバゾール骨格の炭素原子の特定の位置を窒素原子に置換した骨格を有する化合物は耐久性が高いと考えられる。
ここで、従来よく知られていたインドロカルバゾール系化合物は、インドロカルバゾールにさらなる縮合環を有していなかった。このようなインドロカルバゾール系化合物はイオン化ポテンシャルが大きく(=HOMOの値が大きく)、ホール輸送層からのホール注入障壁が高く、実用レベルの素子駆動電圧までには至っていない。本発明では、インドロカルバゾール骨格を有する化合物または、インドロカルバゾール骨格の炭素原子の特定の位置を窒素原子に置換した骨格を有する化合物について、π平面を縮環させることで、素子駆動電圧が縮合環を有していないインドロカルバゾールに比べ低下させることができる。いかなる理由に拘泥するものでもないが、イオン化ポテンシャルを小さく(=HOMOの値が小さく)することができ、その結果、ホール輸送層からのホール注入障壁が緩和されたためと考えられる。
また、WO2011/042107号公報や特開2010-087496号公報に記載のインドロカルバゾール骨格を有する化合物は、インドロカルバゾール骨格がさらに縮環されることに言及しているが、具体的化合物の例示は一切なく、また、骨格を構成する環員数や、縮環の位置に問題があるため、耐久性と駆動電圧の低減の両立が困難であることがわかった。
以下、下記一般式(1)で表される化合物について説明する。
なお、本発明において、前記一般式(1)の説明における水素原子は同位体(重水素原子等)も含み、また更に置換基を構成する原子は、その同位体も含んでいることを表す。
本発明において、「置換基」というとき、その置換基は置換されていてもよい。例えば、本発明で「アルキル基」と言う時、フッ素原子で置換されたアルキル基(例えばトリフルオロメチル基)やアリール基で置換されたアルキル基(例えばトリフェニルメチル基)なども含むが、「炭素数1~6のアルキル基」と言うとき、置換されたものも含めた全ての基として炭素数が1~6であることを示す。
