The present invention relates to a novel compound and an organic electroluminescence device.
When voltage is applied to an organic electroluminescence device (hereinafter, frequently referred to as an organic EL device), holes and electrons are injected into an emitting layer from an anode and a cathode, respectively. Then, thus injected holes and electrons are recombined in the emitting layer, and excitons are formed therein.
Conventional organic EL devices have not yet had sufficient device performance. Although materials used for the organic EL device are gradually improved to enhance the device performance, further performance enhancement is required. In particular, since the improvement of the lifetime of the organic EL device is an important problem leading to the lifetime of the commercialized product, a material capable of achieving an organic EL device having a long lifetime is required.
Patent Documents 1 and 2 disclose that a compound having the specific structure is used for a emitting layer of an organic EL device.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a compound capable of fabricating an organic EL device with high efficiency and long lifetime.
As a result of intensive studies to achieve the above object, the present inventors have found that an organic EL device having high efficiency and long lifetime can be obtained by using a compound having the specific structure, and have completed the present invention.

In this specification, a hydrogen atom includes its isotopes different in the number of neutrons, namely, a protium, a deuterium and a tritium.
In this specification, at a bondable position in a chemical formula where a symbol such as “R”, or “D” representing a deuterium atom is not indicated, a hydrogen atom, that is, a protium atom, a deuterium atom or a tritium atom is bonded.
In this specification, the number of ring carbon atoms represents the number of carbon atoms forming a subject ring itself among the carbon atoms of a compound having a structure in which atoms are bonded in a ring form (for example, a monocyclic compound, a fused ring compound, a cross-linked compound, a carbocyclic compound, or a heterocyclic compound). When the subject ring is substituted by a substituent, the carbon contained in the substituent is not included in the number of ring carbon atoms. The same shall apply to “the number of ring carbon atoms” described below, unless otherwise specified. For example, a benzene ring has 6 ring carbon atoms, a naphthalene ring includes 10 ring carbon atoms, a pyridine ring includes 5 ring carbon atoms, and a furan ring includes 4 ring carbon atoms. Further, for example, a 9,9-diphenylfluorenyl group includes 13 ring carbon atoms, and a 9,9′-spirobifluorenyl group includes 25 ring carbon atoms.
When a benzene ring is substituted by, for example, an alkyl group as a substituent, the number of carbon atoms of the alkyl group is not included in the number of ring carbon atoms of the benzene ring. Therefore, the number of ring carbon atoms of the benzene ring substituted by the alkyl group is 6. When a naphthalene ring is substituted by, for example, an alkyl group as a substituent, the number of carbon atoms of the alkyl group is not included in the number of ring carbon atoms of the naphthalene ring. Therefore, the number of ring carbon atoms of the naphthalene ring substituted by the alkyl group is 10.
In this specification, the number of ring atoms represents the number of atoms forming a subject ring itself among the atoms of a compound having a structure in which atoms are bonded in a ring form (for example, the structure includes a monocyclic ring, a fused ring and a ring assembly) (for example, a monocyclic compound, a fused ring compound, a cross-linked compound, a carbocyclic compound and a heterocyclic compound). The number of ring atoms does not include atoms which do not form the ring (for example, a hydrogen atom which terminates a bond of the atoms forming the ring), or atoms contained in a substituent when the ring is substituted by the substituent. The same shall apply to “the number of ring atoms” described below, unless otherwise specified. For example, the number of atoms of a pyridine ring is 6, the number of atoms of a quinazoline ring is 10, and the number of a furan ring is 5. For example, hydrogen atoms bonded to a pyridine ring and atoms constituting a substituent substituted on the pyridine ring are not included in the number of ring atoms of the pyridine ring. Therefore, the number of ring atoms of a pyridine ring with which a hydrogen atom or a substituent is bonded is 6. For example, hydrogen atoms and atoms constituting a substituent which are bonded with a quinazoline ring is not included in the number of ring atoms of the quinazoline ring. Therefore, the number of ring atoms of a quinazoline ring with which a hydrogen atom or a substituent is bonded is 10.

Here, “YY” is larger than “XX”, and “XX” means an integer of 1 or more and “YY” means an integer of 2 or more.
In this specification, “XX to YY atoms” in the expression “a substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group including XX to YY atoms” represents the number of atoms in the case where the ZZ group is unsubstituted by a substituent, and does not include the number of atoms of a substituent in the case where the ZZ group is substituted by the substituent. Here, “YY” is larger than “XX”, and “XX” means an integer of 1 or more and “YY” means an integer of 2 or more.
In this specification, the unsubstituted ZZ group represents the case where the “substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group” is a “ZZ group unsubstituted by a substituent”, and the substituted ZZ group represents the case where the “substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group” is a “ZZ group substituted by a substituent”.
In this specification, a term “unsubstituted” in the case of “a substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group” means that hydrogen atoms in the ZZ group are not substituted by a substituent. Hydrogen atoms in a term “unsubstituted ZZ group” are a protium atom, a deuterium atom, or a tritium atom.

“The Case where Bonded with Each Other to Form a Ring”
In this specification, the case where “one or more sets of adjacent two or more form a substituted or unsubstituted monocycle by bonding with each other, form a substituted or unsubstituted fused ring by bonding with each other, or do not bond with each other” means the case where “one or more sets of adjacent two or more form a substituted or unsubstituted monocycle by bonding with each other”; the case where “one or more sets of adjacent two or more form a substituted or unsubstituted fused ring by bonding with each other”; and the case where “one or more sets of adjacent two or more do not bond with each other.”
The case where “one or more sets of adjacent two or more form a substituted or unsubstituted monocycle by bonding with each other” and the case where “one or more sets of adjacent two or more form a substituted or unsubstituted fused ring by bonding with each other” in this specification (these cases may be collectively referred to as “the case where forming a ring by bonding with each other”) will be described below. The case of an anthracene compound represented by the following general formula (TEMP-103) in which the mother skeleton is an anthracene ring will be described as an example.
For example, in the case where “one or more sets of adjacent two or more among R921 to R930 form a ring by bonding with each other”, the one set of adjacent two includes a pair of R921 and R922, a pair of R922 and R923, a pair of R923 and R924, a pair of R924 and R930, a pair of R930 and R925, a pair of R925 and R926, a pair of R926 and R927, a pair of R927 and R928, a pair of R928 and R929, and a pair of R929 and R921.
The “one or more sets” means that two or more sets of the adjacent two or more sets may form a ring at the same time. For example, R921 and R922 form a ring QA by bonding with each other, and at the same, time R925 and R926 form a ring QB by bonding with each other, the anthracene compound represented by the general formula (TEMP-103) is represented by the following general formula (TEMP-104).
The case where the “set of adjacent two or more” form a ring includes not only the case where the set (pair) of adjacent “two” is bonded with as in the above-mentioned examples, but also the case where the set of adjacent “three or more” are bonded with each other. For example, it means the case where R921 and R922 form a ring QA by bonding with each other, and R922 and R923 form a ring Qc by bonding with each other, and adjacent three (R921, R922 and R923) form rings by bonding with each other and together fused to the anthracene mother skeleton. In this case, the anthracene compound represented by the general formula (TEMP—103) is represented by the following general formula (TEMP—105). In the following general formula (TEMP—105), the ring QA and the ring Qc share R922.
The “monocycle” or “fused ring” formed may be a saturated ring or an unsaturated ring, as a structure of the formed ring alone. Even when the “one pair of adjacent two” forms a “monocycle” or a “fused ring”, the “monocycle” or the “fused ring” may form a saturated ring or an unsaturated ring. For example, the ring QA and the ring QB formed in the general formula (TEMP—104) are independently a “monocycle” or a “fused ring.” The ring QA and the ring Qc formed in the general formula (TEMP-105) are “fused ring.” The ring QA and ring Qc of the general formula (TEMP—105) are fused ring by fusing the ring QA and the ring Qc together. When the ring QA of the general formula (TMEP—104) is a benzene ring, the ring QA is a monocycle. When the ring QA of the general formula (TMEP—104) is a naphthalene ring, the ring QA is a fused ring.
The “unsaturated ring” means an aromatic hydrocarbon ring or an aromatic heterocyclic ring. The “saturated ring” means an aliphatic hydrocarbon ring, or a non-aromatic heterocyclic ring.
Specific examples of the aromatic hydrocarbon ring include a structure in which the group listed as a specific example in the specific example group G1 is terminated by a hydrogen atom.
Specific examples of the aromatic heterocyclic ring include a structure in which the aromatic heterocyclic group listed as a specific example in the example group G2 is terminated by a hydrogen atom.
Specific examples of the aliphatic hydrocarbon ring include a structure in which the group listed as a specific example in the specific example group G6 is terminated by a hydrogen atom.
The term “to form a ring” means forming a ring only with plural atoms of the mother skeleton, or with plural atoms of the mother skeleton and one or more arbitrary elements in addition. For example, the ring QA shown in the general formula (TEMP—104), which is formed by bonding R921 and R922 with each other, is a ring formed from the carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton with which R921 is bonded, the carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton with which R922 is bonded, and one or more arbitrary elements. For example, in the case where the ring QA is formed with R921 and R922, when a monocyclic unsaturated ring is formed with the carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton with which R921 is bonded, the carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton with which R922 is bonded, and four carbon atoms, the ring formed with R921 and R922 is a benzene ring.
Here, the “arbitrary element” is preferably at least one element selected from the group consisting of a carbon element, a nitrogen element, an oxygen element, and a sulfur element, unless otherwise specified in this specification. In the arbitrary element (for example, a carbon element or a nitrogen element), a bond which does not form a ring may be terminated with a hydrogen atom or the like, or may be substituted with “arbitrary substituent” described below. When an arbitrary element other than a carbon element is contained, the ring formed is a heterocyclic ring.
The number of “one or more arbitrary element(s)” constituting a monocycle or a fused ring is preferably 2 or more and 15 or less, more preferably 3 or more and 12 or less, and still more preferably 3 or more and 5 or less, unless otherwise specified in this specification.
The “monocycle” is preferable among the “monocycle” and the “fused ring”, unless otherwise specified in this specification.
The “unsaturated ring” is preferable among the “saturated ring” and the “unsaturated ring”, unless otherwise specified in this specification.
Unless otherwise specified in this specification, the “monocycle” is preferably a benzene ring.
Unless otherwise specified in this specification, the “unsaturated ring” is preferably a benzene ring.
Unless otherwise specified in this specification, when “one or more sets of adjacent two or more” are “bonded with each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted monocycle” or “bonded with each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted fused ring”, this specification, one or more sets of adjacent two or more are preferably bonded with each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted “unsaturated ring” from plural atoms of the mother skeleton and one or more and 15 or less elements which is at least one kind selected from a carbon elements, a nitrogen element, an oxygen element, and a sulfur element.
The substituent in the case where the above-mentioned “monocycle” or “fused ring” has a substituent is, for example, an “arbitrary substituent” described below. Specific examples of the substituent which the above-mentioned “monocycle” or “fused ring” has include the substituent described above in the “Substituent described in this specification” section.
The substituent in the case where the above-mentioned “saturated ring” or “unsaturated ring” has a substituent is, for example, an “arbitrary substituent” described below. Specific examples of the substituent which the above-mentioned “monocycle” or “fused ring” has include the substituent described above in the “Substituent described in this specification” section.
The foregoing describes the case where “one or more sets of adjacent two or more form a substituted or unsubstituted monocycle by bonding with each other” and the case where “one or more sets of adjacent two or more form a substituted or unsubstituted fused ring by bonding with each other” (the case where “forming a ring by bonding with each other”).
