Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention belongs to the technical field of organic electroluminescent materials and particularly relates to an organic compound, an organic electroluminescent material, and an organic electroluminescent element.


BACKGROUND ART

In general, an organic luminescent phenomenon refers to a phenomenon that a light is emitted when an electric energy is applied to an organic substance. That is, when an organic layer is disposed between an anode and a cathode, if a voltage is applied between the two electrodes, holes are injected from the anode into the organic layer, and electrons are injected from the cathode into the organic layer. When meeting the injected hole and electron form an exciton. When the exciton transits to a ground state, light and heat are emitted.


As a method for efficiently manufacturing an organic electroluminescent element, studies have been made to manufacture an organic layer in an element by replacing a single layer with a multilayer structure. Tang in 1987 proposed an organic electroluminescent element having a stacked structure of a hole layer and a functional layer of an emission layer. Most organic electroluminescent elements currently used comprise: a substrate, an anode, a hole injection layer for receiving holes from the anode, a hole transport layer for transporting holes, an emission layer for emitting a light by recombination of holes and electrons, an electron transport layer for transporting electrons, an electron injection layer for receiving electrons from a cathode, and a cathode. The reason why the organic electroluminescent element is formed in a multilayer manner is that the moving speeds of the holes and the electrons are different, if the hole injection layer and the hole transport layer, and the electron transport layer and the electron injection layer are appropriately manufactured, the holes and the electrons may be efficiently transported, a balance between the holes and the electrons in the element may be achieved, and the utilization rate of the excitons may be improved.


In addition, many organic monomolecular substances having a imidazolyl, a -zolyl, a thiazolyl, or a spiroflurenyl have been reported as substances that may be conventionally used in the electron injection layer and the electron transport layer. For example, TPBI disclosed in the Chinese Patents CN 103833507 B, CN 107573328 B, and CN 107556310 B and the U.S. Pat. No. 5,645,948 to the Kodak Company in 1996 is a imidazolyl-containing substance for an electron transport layer, with three N-phenylbenzimidazolyls contained in 1-, 3-, and 5-substitution positions of benzene in the structure. Functionally, the TPBI has an electron transport ability and also has a function of blocking holes crossing over from an emission layer, but has a problem of a low thermal stability when actually used in an element.


In view of the above concerns, the present invention is proposed.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In order to solve the above problems in the prior art, the present invention provides an organic compound, an organic electroluminescent material, and an organic electroluminescent element. The organic compound of the present invention as a luminescent material may improve the stability, luminous efficiency, service life, etc., of a luminescent element.

A second object of the present invention provides an organic electroluminescent material comprising the organic compound.


A third object of the present invention provides an organic electroluminescent element, comprising a first electrode, a second electrode, and one or more organic layers arranged between the first electrode and the second electrode. The organic layer comprises the organic compound.


The organic electroluminescent element comprises a cathode, an anode, and at least one emission layer. In addition to these layers, the element may further comprise other layers, for example, in each case, it may comprise one or more hole injection layers, hole transport layers, hole blocking layers, electron transport layers, electron injection layers, exciton blocking layers, electron blocking layers and/or charge generation layers. The organic layer containing the compound shown in the formula I is preferably an emission layer, an electron transport layer, and an electron transport auxiliary layer further stacked on the electron transport layer. In such a case, the compound shown in the formula I may be used as a host substance of the emission layer or a substance of an electron transport layer and an electron transport auxiliary layer. However, it should be noted that the presence of all these layers is not necessary. The organic electroluminescent element here may comprise one emission layer, or may comprise a plurality of emission layers. That is a plurality of luminescent compounds capable of emitting light are used in the emission layer. A system having three emission layers is particularly preferred, wherein the three layers respectively emit a blue light, a green light, and a red light. If more than one emission layer is present, at least one of these layers comprises the compounds of the present invention according to the present invention.


The present invention provides an organic electroluminescent element comprising the compound shown in the formula (I). Specifically, the organic electroluminescent element according to the present invention comprises a first electrode, a second electrode, and one or more organic layer arranged between the first electrode and the second electrode. In the one or more organic layer, at least one layer comprises the compound shown in the formula I. In such a case, the compound may be used alone or in combination of two or more. The one or more organic layers may be any one or more of a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an emission layer, an electron transport layer, and an electron injection layer.

In such a case, the host material may comprise the compound of the formula (I). When such emission layer contains the compound shown in the formula (I), the hole transport ability increases, and the chance of combining a hole and an electron in the emission layer increases, such that an organic electroluminescent element having an excellent efficiency, service life, luminance, and driving voltage may be provided. In addition, the emission layer of the organic electroluminescent element of the present invention may comprise a compound other than the compound shown in the formula (I) as a host.


The electron transport layer of the organic electroluminescent element of the present invention may comprise an electron transport material. In such a case, the electron transport layer may comprise the compound shown in the formula (I).

The electron transport auxiliary layer may be further stacked on the electron transport layer. In the case where the compound shown in the formula I is comprised in the transport auxiliary layer, the efficiency, service life, driving voltage, etc., of a blue organic electroluminescent element may be improved particularly due to an effect of preventing transition of an exciton from the emission layer and the electron transport layer by a high triplet energy level.

The terms “upper”, “lower”, etc., indicate the orientation or position relationships based on the orientations or position relationships shown in the drawings and are intended to facilitate the description of the present invention and simplify the description only, rather than indicate or imply that a device or element referred to must have a particular orientation or be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and hence cannot be construed as limiting the present invention.


Further, the organic layer is an emission layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, an electron transport auxiliary layer or an electron blocking layer.


Further, the organic compound is a host substance of the emission layer.


The organic electroluminescent element of the present invention does not comprise an individual hole injection layer and/or a hole transport layer and/or a hole blocking layer and/or an electron transport layer and/or an electron injection layer, i.e., the case where the emission layer is directly adjacent to the hole injection layer or the anode, and/or the emission layer is directly adjacent to the electron transport layer or the electron injection layer or the cathode.
