Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application with application number 202080015059.1 filed on April 14, 2020, and the invention name is compounds, materials for organic elements, ink compositions, organic electroluminescent elements, display devices, and lighting devices. Technical Field

[0002] The present invention relates to a cycloalkane condensation polycyclic aromatic compound and a polymer thereof (hereinafter collectively referred to as a "polycyclic aromatic compound"), an organic element material, an ink composition, and an organic electroluminescent element, an organic field effect transistor, and an organic thin film solar cell using the same, as well as a display device and a lighting device. In this specification, an "organic electroluminescent element" may be referred to as an "organic EL (electroluminescence) element" or simply as an "element". Background Art

[0003] In the past, display devices using light-emitting elements that perform electroluminescence have been studied in various ways because they can achieve power saving or thinning, and organic electroluminescent elements containing organic materials have been actively studied because they can be easily lightweight or large-scaled. In particular, the development of organic materials having luminous properties such as blue, which is one of the three primary colors of light, and the development of organic materials having charge transport capabilities such as holes and electrons (having the possibility of becoming semiconductors or superconductors) have been actively studied to date, regardless of whether they are polymer compounds or low molecular weight compounds.

[0004] An organic EL element has a structure including a pair of electrodes including an anode and a cathode, and one or more layers disposed between the pair of electrodes and including an organic compound. The layers including the organic compound include a light-emitting layer, a charge transport / injection layer for transporting or injecting charges such as holes and electrons, and various organic materials suitable for these layers have been developed.

[0005] As materials for light-emitting layers, for example, benzofluorene compounds have been developed (International Publication No. 2004 / 061047). In addition, as hole transport materials, for example, triphenylamine compounds have been developed (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-172232). In addition, as electron transport materials, for example, anthracene compounds have been developed (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2005-170911).

[0006] In addition, in recent years, materials obtained by improving triphenylamine derivatives have also been reported as materials for organic EL elements or organic thin-film solar cells (International Publication No. 2012 / 118164). The material is a material in which the aromatic rings constituting triphenylamine are linked to each other with reference to the practical N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD), thereby improving its planarity. In the literature, for example, the charge transport properties of NO-linked compounds (Compound 1 on page 63) are evaluated, but the method for producing materials other than NO-linked compounds is not described. In addition, if the linked elements are different, the overall electronic state of the compound is different, so the properties obtained from materials other than NO-linked compounds are still unknown. Examples of such compounds can also be found elsewhere (International Publication No. 2011 / 107186). For example, a compound with a conjugated structure having a large triplet exciton energy (T1) can emit phosphorescence with a shorter wavelength, and is therefore useful as a blue light-emitting layer material. In addition, a compound with a novel conjugated structure having a large T1 is also required as an electron transport material or hole transport material sandwiching the light-emitting layer.

[0007] The host material of an organic EL element is usually a molecule formed by linking multiple existing aromatic rings such as benzene or carbazole using single bonds or phosphorus atoms or silicon atoms. The reason is that by linking multiple relatively small conjugated aromatic rings, the large highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO)-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) gap (band gap Eg of the film) required by the host material is guaranteed. Furthermore, in the host material of an organic EL element using a phosphorescent material or a thermally activated delayed fluorescent material, a high triplet excitation energy (Eg) is also required. T ), but by linking the donor or acceptor aromatic ring or substituent to the molecule, the single occupied molecular orbital (SOMO) 1 and SOMO2 of the triplet excited state (T1) are localized and the exchange interaction between the two orbitals is reduced, thereby increasing the triplet excitation energy (E T ). However, the redox stability of aromatic rings with small conjugated systems is not sufficient, and the life of devices using molecules with existing aromatic rings as main materials is not sufficient. On the other hand, polycyclic aromatic compounds with extended π conjugated systems generally have excellent redox stability, but the HOMO-LUMO gap (band gap Eg of the film) or triplet excitation energy (E T) is low and therefore considered unsuitable as a host material.

[0016] Problems to be solved by the invention

[0017] As described above, various materials have been developed as materials for organic EL elements. In order to increase the selection of materials for organic EL elements, it is desired to develop materials containing compounds different from the existing ones. In particular, organic EL properties obtained from materials other than the NO-linked compounds reported in Patent Documents 1 to 4 or their production methods are still unknown.

[0018] Patent Document 6 reports a polycyclic aromatic compound containing boron and an organic EL element using the same. However, in order to further improve the device characteristics, a light-emitting layer material, particularly a dopant material, that can improve the light-emitting efficiency or the device life is desired.

[0019] Technical means of solving problems

[0020] The inventors have conducted intensive research to solve the above-mentioned problems, and as a result, have found that an excellent organic EL element can be obtained by arranging a layer containing a polycyclic aromatic compound condensed with a cycloalkane between a pair of electrodes to form, for example, an organic EL element, thereby completing the present invention. That is, the present invention provides the following cycloalkane condensed polycyclic aromatic compound or its multimer, and an organic element material including the following cycloalkane condensed polycyclic aromatic compound or its multimer, and the like.

[0021] Furthermore, in this specification, the carbon number is sometimes used to represent the chemical structure or substituent, but when the chemical structure is substituted with a substituent, or when the substituent is further substituted with a substituent, the carbon number refers to the carbon number of the chemical structure or the substituent, and does not refer to the total carbon number of the chemical structure and the substituent, or the total carbon number of the substituent and the substituent. For example, the so-called "substituent B with carbon number Y substituted by substituent A with carbon number X" means that "substituent A with carbon number X" is substituted on "substituent B with carbon number Y", and the carbon number Y is not the total carbon number of substituent A and substituent B. In addition, for example, the so-called "substituent B with carbon number Y substituted by substituent A" means that "substituent A (without limiting the carbon number)" is substituted on "substituent B with carbon number Y", and the carbon number Y is not the total carbon number of substituent A and substituent B.

[0140] Effects of the Invention

[0141] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a novel cycloalkane condensed polycyclic aromatic compound that can be used as a material for an organic element such as an organic EL element can be provided. By using the cycloalkane condensed polycyclic aromatic compound, an excellent organic element such as an organic EL element can be provided.

[0142] Specifically, the inventors have found that polycyclic aromatic compounds (basic skeleton parts) formed by linking aromatic rings with heterogeneous elements such as boron, phosphorus, oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur have a large HOMO-LUMO gap (band gap Eg of the film) and a high triplet excitation energy (E T). The reason is believed to be that the aromaticity of the 6-membered ring containing the heteroelement is low, so the reduction of the HOMO-LUMO gap accompanying the expansion of the conjugated system is suppressed, and the electronic disturbance of the heteroelement causes the SOMO1 and SOMO2 of the triplet excited state (T1) to be localized. In addition, the polycyclic aromatic compound (basic skeleton part) containing the heteroelement of the present invention localizes SOMO1 and SOMO2 in the triplet excited state (T1), and the exchange interaction between the two orbitals becomes small, so the energy difference between the triplet excited state (T1) and the singlet excited state (S1) is small, and thermally activated delayed fluorescence is exhibited, so it is also useful as a fluorescent material for organic EL elements (including elements utilizing thermally activated delayed fluorescence). In addition, it has a high triplet excitation energy (E T ) are also useful as electron transport layers or hole transport layers of phosphorescent organic EL elements or organic EL elements utilizing thermally activated delayed fluorescence. Furthermore, these polycyclic aromatic compounds (basic skeleton parts) can arbitrarily change the energies of HOMO and LUMO by introducing substituents, so that the ionization potential or electron affinity can be optimized according to the surrounding materials.

[0143] In addition to the characteristics of this basic skeleton part, the compound of the present invention can also suppress concentration quenching by condensing cycloalkanes, and can also expect improvements in device life or luminous efficiency. Device life or luminous efficiency is an important characteristic value of an organic element. By using the compound of the present application, it can be expected to improve the characteristics of the element. In addition, a reduction in melting point or sublimation temperature can be expected. The situation refers to the fact that in the sublimation refining that is almost indispensable as a refining method for materials for organic elements such as organic EL elements requiring high purity, the refining can be performed at a relatively low temperature, so that the thermal decomposition of the material can be avoided. In addition, the situation is also the same for the vacuum evaporation process, and the process can be implemented at a relatively low temperature, so the thermal decomposition of the material can be avoided, and a high-performance organic element can be obtained as a result. The vacuum evaporation process is a powerful means for making organic elements such as organic EL elements. In addition, with respect to the polymers of polycyclic aromatic compounds, there are many compounds with high sublimation temperatures due to high molecular weight or planarity, so the reduction of the sublimation temperature caused by condensing cycloalkanes becomes more effective. In addition, since the solubility in an organic solvent is improved by the condensation of cycloalkanes, it can also be applied to the production of a device using a coating process. However, the present invention is not particularly limited to these principles. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0155] 1. Polycyclic aromatic compounds and their polymers through cycloalkane condensation

[0156] The invention of the present application is a polycyclic aromatic compound represented by the following general formula (1), or a multimer of a polycyclic aromatic compound having a plurality of structures represented by the following general formula (1), preferably a polycyclic aromatic compound represented by the following general formula (2), or a multimer of a polycyclic aromatic compound having a plurality of structures represented by the following general formula (2), wherein at least one of the A ring, B ring, C ring, aromatic group and heteroaromatic group in these compounds or structures is condensed by at least one cycloalkane.

[0157] [Chemistry 13]

[0158]

[0159] The A ring, the B ring and the C ring in the general formula (1) are each independently an aryl ring or a heteroaryl ring, and at least one hydrogen in these rings may be substituted by a substituent. The substituent is preferably a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted diarylamino group, a substituted or unsubstituted diheteroarylamino group, a substituted or unsubstituted arylheteroarylamino group (an amino group having an aryl group and a heteroaryl group), a substituted or unsubstituted diarylboryl group (two aryl groups may be bonded via a single bond or a linking group), a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted alkoxy group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryloxy group, or a substituted silane group. When these groups have a substituent, the substituent includes an aryl group, a heteroaryl group, an alkyl group or a cycloalkyl group. In addition, the aryl ring or the heteroaryl ring preferably has a substituted alkyl group containing Y. 1 , X 1 and X 2The central condensed bicyclic structure of the general formula (1) has a bonded 5-membered ring or a 6-membered ring.

[0160] Here, the "condensed bicyclic structure" refers to the structure containing Y 1 , X 1 and X 2 The structure formed by condensation of two saturated hydrocarbon rings. In addition, the so-called "six-membered ring that shares a bond with the condensed bicyclic structure" refers to the a ring (benzene ring (six-membered ring)) condensed in the condensed bicyclic structure, as shown in the general formula (2). In addition, the so-called "(A ring) aryl ring or heteroaryl ring having the six-membered ring" means that the A ring is formed only by the six-membered ring, or that other rings are further condensed in the six-membered ring in a manner that includes the six-membered ring to form the A ring. In other words, the so-called "(A ring) aryl ring or heteroaryl ring having a six-membered ring" mentioned here means that all or part of the six-membered rings constituting the A ring are condensed in the condensed bicyclic structure. The same description also applies to the "B ring (b ring)", "C ring (c ring)" and "5-membered ring".

[0161] The A ring (or B ring, C ring) in the general formula (1) corresponds to the a ring in the general formula (2) and its substituent R 1 ~R 3 (or b ring and its substituent R 8 ~R 11 , c ring and its substituent R 4 ~R 7 ). That is, the general formula (2) corresponds to a structure in which "Ring A to Ring C having a 6-membered ring" are selected as Ring A to Ring C of the general formula (1). In the above meaning, each ring of the general formula (2) is represented by lower case letters a to c.

[0162] In the general formula (2), the substituents R of the a ring, b ring and c ring are 1 ~R 11 The adjacent groups in the formula (2) may be bonded to each other and form an aryl ring or a heteroaryl ring together with the a ring, the b ring or the c ring. At least one hydrogen in the formed ring may be substituted by an aryl group, a heteroaryl group, a diarylamino group, a diheteroarylamino group, an arylheteroarylamino group, a diarylboryl group (two aryl groups may be bonded via a single bond or a linking group), an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an alkoxy group, an aryloxy group, a triarylsilyl group, a trialkylsilyl group, a tricycloalkylsilyl group, a dialkylcycloalkylsilyl group or an alkyldicycloalkylsilyl group. At least one hydrogen in these groups may be substituted by an aryl group, a heteroaryl group, an alkyl group or a cycloalkyl group. Therefore, the polycyclic aromatic compound represented by the general formula (2) changes the ring structure of the compound according to the mutual bonding form of the substituents in the a ring, the b ring and the c ring, as shown in the following formula (2-1) and formula (2-2). The A' ring, the B' ring and the C' ring in each formula correspond to the A ring, the B ring and the C ring in the general formula (1), respectively.

[0163] [Chemistry 14]

[0164]

[0165] When the general formula (2) is used for explanation, the A' ring, B' ring and C' ring in the formula (2-1) and the formula (2-2) represent the substituent R 1 ~R 11 The adjacent groups in the a ring are bonded to each other and form an aryl ring or a heteroaryl ring (which can also be called a condensed ring formed by condensing other ring structures in the a ring, b ring or c ring). Furthermore, although not shown in the formula, there are compounds in which the a ring, b ring and c ring are all changed to the A' ring, B' ring and C' ring. In addition, as can be seen from the above formula (2-1) and formula (2-2), for example, R of the b ring 8 R with c ring 7 , R of b ring 11 R with a ring 1 , c-ring R 4 R with a ring 3 The term "adjacent groups" does not apply to "adjacent groups", and these groups are not bonded. That is, the term "adjacent groups" refers to groups that are adjacent to each other on the same ring.

[0166] The compound represented by the formula (2-1) or (2-2) is, for example, a compound having a benzene ring, an indole ring, a pyrrole ring, a benzofuran ring or a benzothiophene ring, which is condensed with a benzene ring as the a ring (or the b ring or the c ring) to form an A' ring (or the B' ring or the C' ring), and the formed condensed ring A' (or the condensed ring B' or the condensed ring C') is respectively a naphthalene ring, a carbazole ring, an indole ring, a dibenzofuran ring or a dibenzothiophene ring.

[0167] Y in the general formula (1) 1 is B, P, P=O, P=S, Al, Ga, As, Si-R or Ge-R, wherein R of Si-R and Ge-R is an aryl group, an alkyl group or a cycloalkyl group. In the case of P=O, P=S, Si-R or Ge-R, the atom bonded to the A ring, the B ring or the C ring is P, Si or Ge. 1 It is preferably B, P, P=O, P=S or Si-R, and particularly preferably B. The above description also applies to Y in the general formula (2). 1 .

[0168] X in the general formula (1) 1 and X 2 are independently >O, >NR, >C(-R) 2 , >S or >Se, the R of the >NR is an aryl group which may be substituted, a heteroaryl group which may be substituted, an alkyl group which may be substituted or a cycloalkyl group which may be substituted, the >C(-R)2 R is hydrogen, aryl which may be substituted, alkyl which may be substituted or cycloalkyl which may be substituted, the R of the >NR and the >C(-R) 2 At least one of the R's may be bonded to at least one of the A ring, the B ring, and the C ring via a linking group or a single bond, and the linking group is preferably -O-, -S-, or -C(-R) 2 -. Furthermore, the "-C(-R) 2 -" is hydrogen, alkyl or cycloalkyl. The above description also applies to X in the general formula (2) 1 and X 2 .

[0169] Here, in the general formula (1), "the R of the >NR and the >C(-R) 2 The provision that "at least one of the R of >NR and the >C(-R)" is bonded to at least one of the A ring, B ring and C ring via a linking group or a single bond corresponds to the provision that "the R of >NR and the >C(-R) 2 At least one of the R's is -O-, -S-, -C(-R) 2 - or a single bond to at least one of the a ring, b ring and c ring".

[0170] The above-mentioned regulation can be expressed by the following compound, which is represented by the following formula (2-3-1) and has X 1 or X 2 The ring structure introduced into the condensed ring B' and the condensed ring C'. That is, for example, it is a ring structure having other rings to introduce X 1 (or X 2 ) is a compound of a B' ring (or a C' ring) formed by condensing a benzene ring as the b ring (or the c ring) in the general formula (2). The formed condensed ring B' (or condensed ring C') is, for example, a phenoxazine ring, a phenothiazine ring or an acridine ring.

[0171] In addition, the above provisions can also be expressed by the following compound, which is represented by the following formula (2-3-2) or formula (2-3-3) and has X 1 and X 2 At least one of which is introduced into the condensed ring A'. That is, for example, a ring structure having other rings to introduce X 1 (or X 2 or X 1 and X 2 ) is a compound in which the benzene ring as the a ring in the general formula (2) is condensed to form the A' ring. The condensed ring A' formed is, for example, a phenoxazine ring, a phenothiazine ring or an acridine ring.

[0172] [Chemistry 15]

[0173]

[0174] In formula (2), any "-C(-R)=" (where R is R in formula (2)) in ring a, ring b and ring c 1 ~R 11 ) can be replaced by "-N=".

[0175] [Chemistry 16]

[0176]

[0177] As shown above, for example, the "-C(-R 5 )=” can be substituted with “-N=”, and thus, the C ring represented by a benzene ring in formula (2) can be changed to a pyridine ring, a pyrimidine ring, a pyridazine ring, a pyrazine ring, or other nitrogen-containing heteroaryl ring. In addition, as described above, when there is an adjacent group on the C ring (R in the formula 6 and R 7 ), which are bonded together with the c ring to form a heteroaryl ring (a quinoline ring in the formula), and the formed ring may also be substituted (represented by n Rs).

[0178] In addition, there are also the following modified examples.

[0179] [Chemistry 17]

[0180]

[0181] The same applies to the case where other sites are substituted with "-N=" or the case where the a-ring or the b-ring is changed.

[0182] In formula (2), any of "-C(-R)=C(-R)-" (where R is R in formula (2)) in ring a, ring b and ring c 1 ~R 11 ) may be substituted with "-N(-R)-", "-O-" or "-S-", wherein R of "-N(-R)-" is an aryl group, an alkyl group or a cycloalkyl group. The details of the substituents listed here will be summarized later.

[0183] [Chemistry 18]

[0184]

[0185] As shown above, for example, the "-C(-R 7 )=C(-R 6)-" can be substituted with "-N(-R)-", "-O-" or "-S-", so that the c ring represented by the benzene ring in formula (2) can be changed to a pyrrole ring, furan ring, thiophene ring, or other nitrogen / oxygen / sulfur-containing heteroaryl ring substituted with R. In addition, as described above, when there is an adjacent group on the c ring (R in the formula 4 and R 5 ), which are bonded together with the c ring to form a heteroaryl ring (an indole ring, a benzofuran ring or a benzothiophene ring substituted with R in the formula), and the formed ring may also be further substituted (represented by n Rs).

[0186] In addition, there are also the following modified examples.

[0187] [Chemistry 19]

[0188]

[0189] The same applies to cases where other sites are substituted with "-N(-R)-", "-O-" or "-S-", or where the a-ring or b-ring is changed.

[0190] Furthermore, in the description of the above formulas (2-1), (2-2), (2-3-1), (2-3-2) and (2-3-3), the a ring, b ring and c ring are described as benzene rings, and the same applies to the case where the a ring to the c ring are changed to a nitrogen-containing heteroaryl ring (6-membered ring or 5-membered ring) or an oxygen / sulfur heteroaryl ring (5-membered ring).

The "aryl ring" corresponds to "R" in the general formula (2). 1 ~R 11 Adjacent groups in the a ring are bonded to each other and form an aryl ring together with the a ring, the b ring or the c ring. In addition, the a ring (or the b ring, the c ring) already contains a benzene ring with 6 carbon atoms, so the total carbon number of 9 in the condensed ring formed by condensing the 5-membered ring therein becomes the lower limit of the carbon number.

[0192] Specific examples of the "aryl ring" include: a benzene ring as a monocyclic ring system, a biphenyl ring as a bicyclic ring system, a naphthalene ring as a condensed bicyclic ring system, a terphenyl ring (meta-terphenyl, o-terphenyl, p-terphenyl) as a tricyclic ring system, an acenaphthene ring, a fluorene ring, a phenanthren ring, a phenanthrene ring, an anthracene ring as a condensed tricyclic ring system, a triphenylene ring, a pyrene ring, a naphthacene ring as a condensed tetracyclic ring system, a perylene ring, a pentacene ring, and the like.

The "heteroaryl ring" corresponds to "R" in the general formula (2). 1 ~R 11 Adjacent groups in the a ring are bonded to each other and form a heteroaryl ring together with the a ring, the b ring or the c ring. In addition, the a ring (or the b ring, the c ring) already contains a benzene ring with 6 carbon atoms, and therefore, the total carbon number of 6 in the condensed ring formed by condensing the 5-membered ring therein becomes the lower limit of the carbon number.

In the first reaction, for example, if it is an etherification reaction, common reactions such as nucleophilic substitution reaction and Ullmann reaction can be used, and if it is an amination reaction, common reactions such as Buchwald-Hartwig reaction can be used. In addition, in the second reaction, a tandem hetero-Friedel-Crafts reaction (continuous aromatic electrophilic substitution reaction, the same below) can be used.

Subsequently, boron tribromide or the like is added to carry out lithium-boron metal exchange, and then a Brünster base such as N,N-diisopropylethylamine is added to carry out a tandem boro-friedel-quafft reaction, thereby obtaining the target product. Here, in order to promote the reaction, a Lewis acid such as aluminum trichloride may also be added. In addition, at some point in these reaction steps, a raw material condensed with cycloalkane is used, or a step of condensing cycloalkane is added, thereby, the compound of the present invention in which the desired position is condensed with cycloalkane can be manufactured.

[0758] In the synthesis methods of the above-mentioned processes (1) to (17) and (20) to (25), it is indicated that before adding boron trichloride or boron tribromide, butyl lithium or the like is used to react X 1 With X 2 This is an example of a tandem heterofriedel-quafft reaction whereby ortho-metallation of hydrogen atoms (or halogen atoms) between the two atoms is performed. However, the reaction may be performed by adding boron trichloride or boron tribromide instead of ortho-metallation using butyl lithium or the like.

[0759] In addition, in Y 1 In the case of a phosphorus system, as shown in the following process (26) or process (27), n-butyl lithium, sec-butyl lithium or tert-butyl lithium is used to treat X 1 With X 2 (O in the following formula) is ortho-metallated, then bis(diethylamino)chlorophosphine is added, after the metal exchange of lithium-phosphorus, Lewis acids such as aluminum chloride are added, thus tandem phosphafrid-Quaft reaction is carried out, thus target can be obtained. The reaction method is also recorded in International Publication No. 2010 / 104047 (for example, 27 pages). In addition, somewhere in these reactions steps, the raw material of cycloalkane condensation or the step of appending condensed cycloalkane is used, thus, the compound of the present invention of the desired position through cycloalkane condensation can be manufactured.

[0762] [Chemistry 265]

[0763]

[0764] Furthermore, in the above process (26) or process (27), a multimeric compound can be synthesized by using an ortho-metallating agent such as butyl lithium in an amount of 2 or 3 times the molar amount of the intermediate 1. In addition, a halogen such as a bromine atom or a chlorine atom is introduced in advance at the position where a metal such as lithium is to be introduced, and a halogen-metal exchange is performed, thereby introducing a metal to the desired position.

[0765] In addition, regarding the polycyclic aromatic compound represented by the general formula (2-A), a polycyclic aromatic compound condensed with cycloalkane at a desired position can be synthesized by synthesizing an intermediate condensed with cycloalkane as shown in the following process (28). In the process (28), X represents a halogen or hydrogen, and the definitions of other symbols are the same as those of the symbols in the general formula (20).

[0766] [Chemistry 266]

[0767]

[0768] The intermediate before cyclization in the process (28) can also be synthesized by the method shown in the process (1) or the like. That is, the intermediate having the desired substituent can be synthesized by appropriately combining the Buchwald-Hartwig reaction or the Suzuki coupling reaction, or the etherification reaction using the nucleophilic substitution reaction or the Ullmann reaction or the like. In these reactions, the raw materials that become the precursors of the cycloalkane condensation can also be commercially available products.

[0769] The compound of the general formula (2-A) having a cycloalkane-condensed diphenylamino group can also be synthesized, for example, by the following method. That is, cycloalkane-condensed bromobenzene and trihalogenated aniline are subjected to an amination reaction such as the Buchwald-Hartwig reaction to introduce a cycloalkane-condensed diphenylamino group, and then 1 , X 2 In the case of NR, an amination reaction such as the Buchwald-Hartwig reaction is used to derive the intermediate (M-3), and in the case of X 1 , X 2 When it is O, it can be derived into an intermediate (M-3) by etherification using phenol, and then, for example, a metalation reagent such as butyl lithium is allowed to act to perform transmetalation, then a boron halide such as boron tribromide is allowed to act, and then a Brünster base such as diethylisopropylamine is allowed to act to synthesize a compound of the general formula (2-A). These reactions can also be applied to other compounds that have undergone cycloalkane condensation.

[0770] Furthermore, examples of ortho-metallating agents used in the processes (1) to (28) include alkyl lithiums such as methyl lithium, n-butyl lithium, sec-butyl lithium, and tert-butyl lithium, organic basic compounds such as lithium diisopropylamide, lithium tetramethylpiperidinide, lithium hexamethyldisilazide, and potassium hexamethyldisilazide, and dispersed alkali metals such as organic solvent-dispersed Na.

[0771] Furthermore, as the metal-Y used in the above-mentioned processes (1) to (28), 1 The metal exchange reagents include: Y 1 trifluoride, Y 1 trichloride, Y 1 tribromide, Y 1 Triiodide, etc. 1 Halides, CIPN(NEt 2 ) 2 Wait for Y 1 Amine halide, Y 1 Alkoxylate, Y 1 Aryloxy compounds, etc.

[0772] Furthermore, examples of the Brünster base used in the above-mentioned processes (1) to (28) include: N,N-diisopropylethylamine, triethylamine, 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine, 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidine, N,N-dimethylaniline, N,N-dimethyltoluidine, 2,6-dimethylpyridine, sodium tetraphenylborate, potassium tetraphenylborate, triphenylborane, tetraphenylsilane, Ar 4 BNa、Ar 4 BK、Ar 3 B.

[0774] In the above-mentioned processes (1) to (28), in order to promote the tandem heterofriedel-quafft reaction, a Brünster base or a Lewis acid may be used. 1 trifluoride, Y 1 trichloride, Y 1 tribromide, Y 1 Triiodide, etc. 1 In the case of halides, as the aromatic electrophilic substitution reaction proceeds, acids such as hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen chloride, hydrogen bromide, and hydrogen iodide are generated, so it is effective to use a Brünster base to capture the acid. 1 Amine halide, Y 1 In the case of alkoxylates, amines and alcohols are generated as the aromatic electrophilic substitution reaction proceeds. Therefore, in many cases, it is not necessary to use a Brünster base. However, since the amino group or alkoxy group has low ability to leave, it is effective to use a Lewis acid that promotes its leaving.

[0775] In addition, the polycyclic aromatic compounds or polymers thereof of the present invention also include compounds in which at least a portion of the hydrogen atoms are substituted by deuterium or cyano, or compounds in which at least a portion of the hydrogen atoms are substituted by halogens such as fluorine or chlorine. Such compounds can be synthesized in the same manner as described above by using raw materials that are deuterated, cyanated, fluorinated or chlorinated at the desired positions.

[0776] 3. Organic components

[0778] 3-1. Organic electroluminescent element

[0779] Hereinafter, the organic EL element of this embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Figure 1 It is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the organic EL element according to this embodiment.

[0780] <Structure of organic electroluminescent element>

[0781] Figure 1 The organic EL element 100 shown includes: a substrate 101, an anode 102 arranged on the substrate 101, a hole injection layer 103 arranged on the anode 102, a hole transport layer 104 arranged on the hole injection layer 103, a light-emitting layer 105 arranged on the hole transport layer 104, an electron transport layer 106 arranged on the light-emitting layer 105, an electron injection layer 107 arranged on the electron transport layer 106, and a cathode 108 arranged on the electron injection layer 107.

[0782] Furthermore, the organic EL element 100 can also reverse the production order to form a structure such as the following, which includes: a substrate 101, a cathode 108 disposed on the substrate 101, an electron injection layer 107 disposed on the cathode 108, an electron transport layer 106 disposed on the electron injection layer 107, a light-emitting layer 105 disposed on the electron transport layer 106, a hole transport layer 104 disposed on the light-emitting layer 105, a hole injection layer 103 disposed on the hole transport layer 104, and an anode 102 disposed on the hole injection layer 103.

[0783] Not all of the above layers are required, and the minimum structural unit is set to a structure including an anode 102, a light-emitting layer 105, and a cathode 108. The hole injection layer 103, the hole transport layer 104, the electron transport layer 106, and the electron injection layer 107 are layers provided arbitrarily. In addition, each of the above layers may include a single layer or a plurality of layers.

[0784] The morphology of the layers constituting the organic EL element may be, in addition to the structural morphology of “substrate / anode / hole injection layer / hole transport layer / luminescent layer / electron transport layer / electron injection layer / cathode”, “substrate / anode / hole injection layer / luminescent layer / electron transport layer / electron injection layer / cathode”, “substrate / anode / hole injection layer / luminescent layer / electron transport layer / electron injection layer / cathode”, “substrate / anode / hole injection layer / hole transport layer / luminescent layer / electron injection layer / cathode”, “substrate / anode / hole injection layer / hole transport layer / luminescent layer / electron injection layer / cathode”, “substrate / anode / hole injection layer / hole transport layer / luminescent layer / electron injection layer / cathode”, The structural morphology of the substrate is as follows: substrate / anode / light-emitting layer / electron transport layer / electron injection layer / cathode", "substrate / anode / light-emitting layer / electron transport layer / electron injection layer / cathode", "substrate / anode / hole transport layer / light-emitting layer / electron injection layer / cathode", "substrate / anode / hole injection layer / light-emitting layer / electron transport layer / cathode", "substrate / anode / hole injection layer / light-emitting layer / electron injection layer / cathode", "substrate / anode / hole injection layer / light-emitting layer / electron transport layer / cathode", "substrate / anode / light-emitting layer / electron transport layer / cathode", and "substrate / anode / light-emitting layer / electron injection layer / cathode".

[0785] <Substrates in organic electroluminescent devices>

[0786] The substrate 101 is a support of the organic EL element 100, and quartz, glass, metal, plastic, etc. are generally used. The substrate 101 is formed into a plate, film, or sheet according to the purpose, for example, a glass plate, a metal plate, a metal foil, a plastic film, a plastic sheet, etc. can be used. Among them, glass plates and transparent synthetic resin plates such as polyester, polymethacrylate, polycarbonate, and polysulfone are preferred. If it is a glass substrate, soda-lime glass or alkali-free glass can be used. In addition, the thickness only needs to be thick enough to maintain mechanical strength, so for example, it only needs to be 0.2 mm or more. The upper limit of the thickness is, for example, less than 2 mm, preferably less than 1 mm. Regarding the material of the glass, since the less ions dissolved from the glass, the better, alkali-free glass is preferably used. Since SiO 2 Soda lime glass with an isolation coating such as is also commercially available, so the soda lime glass can be used. In addition, in order to improve the gas barrier property, a gas barrier film such as a fine silicon oxide film can also be provided on at least one side of the substrate 101. In particular, when a plate, film or sheet made of a synthetic resin with low gas barrier property is used as the substrate 101, it is preferred to provide a gas barrier film.

[0787] <Anode in organic electroluminescent device>

[0788] The anode 102 plays a role of injecting holes into the light-emitting layer 105. When at least one of the hole injection layer 103 and the hole transport layer 104 is provided between the anode 102 and the light-emitting layer 105, holes are injected into the light-emitting layer 105 through these layers.

[0789] As materials for forming the anode 102, inorganic compounds and organic compounds can be cited. As inorganic compounds, for example, metals (aluminum, gold, silver, nickel, palladium, chromium, etc.), metal oxides (indium oxide, tin oxide, indium-tin oxide (Indium Tin Oxide, ITO), indium-zinc oxide (Indium Zinc Oxide, IZO), etc.), metal halides (copper iodide, etc.), copper sulfide, carbon black, ITO glass or Nesser (NESA) glass, etc. As organic compounds, for example, polythiophenes such as poly (3-methylthiophene), polypyrrole, conductive polymers such as polyaniline, etc. can be cited. In addition, it can be appropriately selected from the substances used as the anode of the organic EL element for use.

[0790] The resistance of the transparent electrode is not limited as long as it can supply sufficient current for the light emission of the light emitting element, but from the perspective of the power consumption of the light emitting element, low resistance is ideal. For example, if it is an ITO substrate below 300Ω / Y, it functions as an element electrode, but now it is also possible to supply a substrate of about 10Ω / Y, so it is particularly ideal to use, for example, 100Ω / Y~5Ω / Y, preferably a low resistance product of 50Ω / Y~5Ω / Y. The thickness of ITO can be arbitrarily selected in accordance with the resistance value, but it is usually used between 50nm and 300nm.

[0791] <Hole injection layer and hole transport layer in organic electroluminescent element>

[0792] The hole injection layer 103 plays a role in efficiently injecting holes migrated from the anode 102 into the light-emitting layer 105 or the hole transport layer 104. The hole transport layer 104 plays a role in efficiently transporting holes injected from the anode 102 or holes injected from the anode 102 via the hole injection layer 103 to the light-emitting layer 105. The hole injection layer 103 and the hole transport layer 104 are formed by stacking or mixing one or more hole injection / transport materials, or by a mixture of a hole injection / transport material and a polymer binder. In addition, an inorganic salt such as iron (III) chloride can be added to the hole injection / transport material to form a layer.

[0793] As a hole injection and transport material, it is necessary to efficiently inject and transport holes from the positive electrode between electrodes to which an electric field is applied, and it is ideal to have high hole injection efficiency and efficiently transport the injected holes. Therefore, it is preferred to have a small ionization potential, a large hole mobility, and excellent stability, and it is not easy to generate impurities that become traps during manufacturing and use.

[0794] As materials for forming the hole injection layer 103 and the hole transport layer 104, any compound can be selected from compounds conventionally used as charge transport materials for holes in photoconductive materials and known compounds used for hole injection layers and hole transport layers of p-type semiconductors and organic EL elements. Specific examples of these materials include carbazole derivatives (N-phenylcarbazole, polyvinylcarbazole, etc.), biscarbazole derivatives such as bis(N-arylcarbazole) or bis(N-alkylcarbazole), triarylamine derivatives (polymers having aromatic tertiary amino groups in the main chain or side chain), 1,1-bis(4-di-p-tolylaminophenyl)cyclohexane, N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-di(3-methylphenyl)-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl, N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-dinaphthyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl, N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-di(3-methylphenyl)-4,4'-diphenyl-1,1'-diamine, N,N'-dinaphthyl-N,N'-diphenyl-4,4'-diphenyl-1,1'-diamine, N 4 ,N 4 '-Diphenyl-N 4 ,N 4 '-Bis(9-phenyl-9H-carbazole-3-yl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4,4'-diamine, N 4 ,N 4 ,N 4 ',N 4 '-tetrakis[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4,4'-diamine, 4,4',4"-tris(3-methylphenyl(phenyl)amino)triphenylamine and other triphenylamine derivatives, starburst amine derivatives, etc.), stilbene derivatives, phthalocyanine derivatives (metal-free, copper phthalocyanine, etc.), pyrazoline derivatives, hydrazone compounds, benzofuran derivatives or thiophene derivatives, oxadiazole derivatives, quinoxaline derivatives (for example, 1,4,5,8,9,12-hexaazatriphenylene-2,3,6,7,10,11-hexacarbonitrile, etc.), heterocyclic compounds such as porphyrin derivatives, polysilane, etc. Among polymer systems, polycarbonate or styrene derivatives, polyvinylcarbazole and polysilane having the above-mentioned monomers on the side chain are preferred, but there is no particular limitation as long as it is a compound that can form a thin film required for the production of a light-emitting element, can inject holes from the anode, and can further transport holes.

[0795] In addition, it is also known that the conductivity of organic semiconductors is strongly affected by their doping. Such organic semiconductor matrix materials contain compounds with good electron donating properties or compounds with good electron accepting properties. In order to dope electron donating materials, strong electron acceptors such as tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) or 2,3,5,6-tetrafluorotetracyano-1,4-benzoquinodimethane (F4TCNQ) are known (for example, see the literature "M. Pfeiffer, A. Bayer, T. Fritz, K. Leo (M. Pfeiffer , A. Beyer, T. Fritz, K. Leo, Appl. Phys. Lett., 73(22), 3202-3204 (1998) and J. Blochwitz, M. Pheiffer, T. Fritz, K. Leo, Appl. Phys. Lett., 73(6), 729-731 (1998)). These generate so-called holes through the electron transfer process of the electron-donating base material (hole transport material). The conductivity of the base material varies greatly depending on the number and mobility of the holes. As host materials having hole transport properties, known materials include, for example, benzidine derivatives (TPD, etc.) or starburst amine derivatives (4,4',4"-tris(N,N-diphenylamino)triphenylamine (4,4',4"-tris(N,N-diphenylamino)triphenylamine, TDATA), etc.), or specific metal phthalocyanines (especially zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc), etc.) (Japanese Patent Gazette No. 2005-167175).

[0796] The hole injection layer material and the hole transport layer material can also be used as the following polymer compound or its polymer crosslinked body, or the following pendant polymer compound or its pendant polymer crosslinked body for the hole layer material, wherein the polymer compound is obtained by polymerizing the reactive compound substituted with a reactive substituent in the hole injection layer material and the hole transport layer material as a monomer, and the pendant polymer compound is obtained by reacting a main chain polymer with the reactive compound. As the reactive substituent in the above case, the description in the polycyclic aromatic compound represented by formula (1) can be cited.

[0797] The details of the uses of such polymer compounds and polymer crosslinked products will be described later.

[0798] <Light-emitting layer in organic electroluminescent element>

[0799] The light-emitting layer 105 is a layer that emits light by allowing holes injected from the anode 102 to recombine with electrons injected from the cathode 108 between electrodes to which an electric field is applied. The material forming the light-emitting layer 105 can be any compound (luminescent compound) that is excited to emit light by the recombination of holes and electrons, and is preferably a compound that can form a stable thin film shape and exhibits strong luminescence (fluorescence) efficiency in a solid state. In the present invention, as the material for the light-emitting layer, a host material and, for example, a polycyclic aromatic compound represented by the general formula (1) as a dopant material can be used.

[0800] The light-emitting layer may be a single layer or may include multiple layers, either of which is acceptable, and is formed of materials for the light-emitting layer (host material, dopant material). The host material and the dopant material may be one type or a combination of multiple types, either of which is acceptable. The dopant material may be contained in the entire host material or in part of the host material, either of which is acceptable. As a doping method, it can be formed by co-evaporation with the host material, or it can be mixed with the host material in advance and then evaporated simultaneously.

[0801] The amount of the host material used varies depending on the type of the host material and can be determined based on the characteristics of the host material. The base amount of the host material used is preferably 50% to 99.999% by weight of the total material for the light-emitting layer, more preferably 80% to 99.95% by weight, and even more preferably 90% to 99.9% by weight.

[0802] The amount of the dopant material used varies depending on the type of the dopant material and can be determined by matching the characteristics of the dopant material. The base amount of the dopant used is preferably 0.001 wt% to 50 wt% of the total luminescent layer material, more preferably 0.05 wt% to 20 wt%, and further preferably 0.1 wt% to 10 wt%. If it is within the above range, it is preferred, for example, in terms of preventing concentration quenching.

[0803] The host material can be exemplified by anthracene, pyrene, dibenzo[deg.] or condensed ring derivatives such as fluorene, bis-styryl anthracene derivatives or distyryl benzene derivatives, tetraphenyl butadiene derivatives, cyclopentadiene derivatives, etc. Anthracene compounds, fluorene compounds or dibenzophenone compounds are particularly preferred.

[1216] [Chemical formula 339]

[1217] φ-(benzothiazole-based substituent)n (ETM-14-2)

At least one hydrogen in the thiazole derivative and benzothiazole derivative can be replaced by deuterium. * in the following structural formula indicates the bonding position.

[1220]

[1221] φ is further preferably an anthracene ring or a fluorene ring. In this case, the structure can refer to the description in the formula (ETM-2-1) or formula (ETM-2-2). R in each formula 11 ~R 18The description in the above formula (ETM-2-1) or formula (ETM-2-2) can be cited. In addition, the above formula (ETM-2-1) or formula (ETM-2-2) is described in the form of two pyridine substituents bonded together, but when these are replaced by thiazole substituents (or benzothiazole substituents), the two pyridine substituents can be replaced by thiazole substituents (or benzothiazole substituents) (i.e., n=2), and any one of the pyridine substituents can be replaced by a thiazole substituent (or benzothiazole substituent) and R 11 ~R 18 Substitute another pyridine substituent (ie, n = 1). Furthermore, for example, R in the formula (ETM-2-1) may be substituted by a thiazole substituent (or a benzothiazole substituent). 11 ~R 18 At least one of R 11 ~R 18 Substituted "pyridine substituent".

[1222] These thiazole derivatives or benzothiazole derivatives can be produced using known starting materials and known synthesis methods.

[1223] The electron transport layer or the electron injection layer may further contain a substance capable of reducing the material forming the electron transport layer or the electron injection layer. The reducing substance may be a variety of substances as long as it has a certain reducing property, for example, at least one selected from the group consisting of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, rare earth metals, alkali metal oxides, alkali metal halides, alkaline earth metal oxides, alkaline earth metal halides, rare earth metal oxides, rare earth metal halides, alkali metal organic complexes, alkaline earth metal organic complexes, and rare earth metal organic complexes may be appropriately used.

[1224] As preferred reducing substances, alkali metals such as Na (work function is 2.36eV), K (work function is 2.28eV), Rb (work function is 2.16eV) or Cs (work function is 1.95eV), or alkaline earth metals such as Ca (work function is 2.9eV), Sr (work function is 2.0eV~2.5eV), or Ba (work function is 2.52eV), and substances with a work function of 2.9eV or less are particularly preferred. Among these reducing substances, more preferred reducing substances are alkali metals of K, Rb or Cs, and more preferably Rb or Cs, and most preferably Cs. The reducing ability of these alkali metals is particularly high. By adding a relatively small amount of these alkali metals to the material forming the electron transport layer or the electron injection layer, the luminous brightness in the organic EL element can be improved or the life can be prolonged. In addition, as the reducing substance having a work function of 2.9 eV or less, a combination of two or more of the alkali metals is also preferred, and a combination containing Cs is particularly preferred, such as a combination of Cs and Na, Cs and K, Cs and Rb, or Cs and Na and K. By including Cs, the reducing ability can be efficiently exerted, and by adding it to the material forming the electron transport layer or the electron injection layer, the luminance of the light emission in the organic EL element can be improved or the life can be prolonged.

[1225] The electron injection layer material and the electron transport layer material can also be used as the following polymer compound or its polymer crosslinked body, or the following pendant polymer compound or its pendant polymer crosslinked body for the electron layer material, wherein the polymer compound is obtained by polymerizing the reactive compound substituted with a reactive substituent in the electron injection layer material and the electron transport layer material as a monomer, and the pendant polymer compound is obtained by reacting a main chain polymer with the reactive compound. As the reactive substituent in the above case, the description in the polycyclic aromatic compound represented by formula (1) can be cited.

[1226] The details of the uses of such polymer compounds and polymer crosslinked products will be described later.

[1227] <Cathode in organic electroluminescent device>

[1228] The cathode 108 plays a role of injecting electrons into the light-emitting layer 105 via the electron injection layer 107 and the electron transport layer 106 .

[1229] As the material forming the cathode 108, if it is a substance that can efficiently inject electrons into the organic layer, it is not particularly limited, and the same material as the material forming the anode 102 can be used. Among them, preferably metals such as tin, indium, calcium, aluminum, silver, copper, nickel, chromium, gold, platinum, iron, zinc, lithium, sodium, potassium, cesium and magnesium or their alloys (magnesium-silver alloy, magnesium-indium alloy, aluminum-lithium alloy of lithium fluoride / aluminum, etc.) and the like. In order to improve the efficiency of electron injection to improve the characteristics of the element, lithium, sodium, potassium, cesium, calcium, magnesium or alloys containing these low work function metals are effective. However, these low work function metals are usually unstable in the atmosphere. In order to improve this point, it is known that there is a method of doping a trace amount of lithium, cesium or magnesium into the organic layer and using an electrode with high stability. As other dopants, inorganic salts such as lithium fluoride, cesium fluoride, lithium oxide and cesium oxide can also be used. Among them, it is not limited to these.

[1230] Furthermore, the following preferred examples can be cited: for the purpose of protecting the electrode, metals such as platinum, gold, silver, copper, iron, tin, aluminum and indium, or alloys of these metals, inorganic substances such as silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide and silicon nitride, polyvinyl alcohol, vinyl chloride, hydrocarbon-based polymer compounds, etc. are laminated. The method for producing these electrodes is not particularly limited as long as it is a method that can achieve conductivity such as resistance heating, electron beam evaporation, sputtering, ion plating and coating.

[1231] <Adhesives that can be used for each layer>

[1232] The materials used for the above hole injection layer, hole transport layer, light-emitting layer, electron transport layer and electron injection layer may form each layer independently, or may be dispersed in solvent-soluble resins such as polyvinyl chloride, polycarbonate, polystyrene, poly(N-vinylcarbazole), polymethyl methacrylate, polybutyl methacrylate, polyester, polysulfone, polyphenylene oxide, polybutadiene, hydrocarbon resin, ketone resin, phenoxy resin, polyamide, ethyl cellulose, vinyl acetate resin, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) resin, polyurethane resin, or curable resins such as phenol resin, xylene resin, petroleum resin, urea resin, melamine resin, unsaturated polyester resin, alkyd resin, epoxy resin, silicone resin, etc., as polymer binders.

[1233] <Method for producing organic electroluminescent element>

[1234] Each layer constituting the organic EL element can be formed by making the material to constitute each layer into a thin film using a method such as vapor deposition, resistance heating vapor deposition, electron beam vapor deposition, sputtering, molecular stacking, printing, spin coating, casting, coating, etc. The film thickness of each layer formed in the above manner is not particularly limited and can be appropriately set according to the properties of the material, but is generally in the range of 2nm to 5000nm. The film thickness can generally be measured using a crystal oscillation film thickness measuring device or the like. When using the vapor deposition method for thin film formation, the vapor deposition conditions vary depending on the type of material, the target crystal structure and association structure of the film, etc. The vapor deposition conditions are generally preferably a boat heating temperature of +50°C to +400°C, a vacuum degree of 10 -6 Pa~10 -3 Pa, vapor deposition rate 0.01 nm / sec to 50 nm / sec, substrate temperature -150°C to +300°C, and film thickness 2 nm to 5 μm are appropriately set.

[1235] When a direct current voltage is applied to the organic EL element obtained in the above manner, it can be applied with the anode as + polarity and the cathode as - polarity. If a voltage of about 2V to 40V is applied, light emission can be observed from the transparent or translucent electrode side (anode or cathode, or both). In addition, the organic EL element also emits light when a pulse current or an alternating current is applied. Furthermore, the waveform of the applied alternating current can be arbitrary.

[1236] Next, as an example of a method for producing an organic EL element, a method for producing an organic EL element including anode / hole injection layer / hole transport layer / light-emitting layer including a host material and a dopant material / electron transport layer / electron injection layer / cathode is described.

[1237] <Evaporation method>

[1238] On a suitable substrate, a thin film of an anode material is formed by a vapor deposition method to make an anode, and then a thin film of a hole injection layer and a hole transport layer is formed on the anode. A main material and a dopant material are co-evaporated thereon to form a thin film as a light-emitting layer, an electron transport layer and an electron injection layer are formed on the light-emitting layer, and then a thin film containing a cathode material is formed by a vapor deposition method as a cathode, thereby obtaining a target organic EL element. Furthermore, in the production of the organic EL element, the production order can also be reversed, and the cathode, electron injection layer, electron transport layer, light-emitting layer, hole transport layer, hole injection layer, anode are produced in the order of cathode, electron injection layer, electron transport layer, light-emitting layer, hole transport layer, hole injection layer, anode.

[1239] <Wet film forming method>

[1240] A low molecular weight compound that can form each organic layer of an organic EL element is prepared as a liquid organic layer-forming composition, and the composition is used to perform a wet film-forming method. In the absence of an appropriate organic solvent that dissolves the low molecular weight compound, the organic layer-forming composition can also be prepared from a high molecular weight compound that is polymerized together with other monomers or main chain polymers that have a solubility function as a reactive compound that replaces a reactive substituent in the low molecular weight compound.

[1241] The wet film forming method is usually formed by the following steps, the steps are the coating step of coating the organic layer forming composition on the substrate and the drying step of removing the solvent from the coated organic layer forming composition. In the case where the polymer compound has a cross-linking substituent (also referred to as a cross-linking polymer compound), the drying step is further cross-linked to form a polymer cross-linked body. According to the difference in the coating step, the method using a spin coater is called a spin coating method, the method using a slit coater is called a slit coating method, the method using a plate is called a gravure, a lithography, a reverse lithography, a flexographic printing method, the method using an inkjet printer is called an inkjet method, and the method of blowing attached to a mist is called a spray method. There are methods such as air drying, heating, and reduced pressure drying in the drying step. The drying step can be performed only once, or it can be performed multiple times using different methods or conditions. In addition, for example, different methods can be used as calcination under reduced pressure.

[1242] The so-called wet film forming method is a film forming method using a solution, such as a partial printing method (inkjet method), spin coating method or casting method, coating method, etc. The wet film forming method is different from the vacuum evaporation method, and does not require the use of expensive vacuum evaporation equipment, and can be formed under atmospheric pressure. In addition, the wet film forming method can be large-scale or continuously produced, thereby reducing manufacturing costs.

[1243] On the other hand, when compared with the vacuum evaporation method, there are cases where the wet film forming method is difficult to laminate. When using the wet film forming method to make a laminated film, it is necessary to prevent the dissolution of the bottom layer caused by the composition of the upper layer, and use a composition that controls the solubility, cross-linking of the bottom layer, and an orthogonal solvent (solvents that do not dissolve each other). However, even if these technologies are used, there are cases where it is difficult to use the wet film forming method for coating all films.

[1244] Therefore, a method is generally adopted in which only some layers are formed by a wet film-forming method and the remaining layers are formed by a vacuum evaporation method to produce an organic EL element.

[1245] For example, the following shows a part of the procedure for manufacturing an organic EL element by applying the wet film formation method.

[1246] (Procedure 1) Anode film formation by vacuum deposition method

[1247] (Procedure 2) Film formation of a hole injection layer-forming composition containing a hole injection layer material by a wet film formation method

[1248] (Procedure 3) Film formation of a hole transport layer-forming composition containing a hole transport layer material by a wet film formation method

[1249] (Procedure 4) Film formation of a composition for forming a light-emitting layer containing a host material and a dopant material by a wet film formation method

[1250] (Procedure 5) Film formation of electron transport layer by vacuum deposition method

[1251] (Procedure 6) Film formation of electron injection layer by vacuum deposition method

[1252] (Procedure 7) Cathode film formation by vacuum deposition method

[1253] By going through the above process, an organic EL element including anode / hole injection layer / hole transport layer / light-emitting layer including a host material and a dopant material / electron transport layer / electron injection layer / cathode can be obtained.

[1254] Of course, by providing a means for preventing the dissolution of the underlying light-emitting layer and using a means for film formation from the cathode side in the reverse order to the above-described procedure, a layer-forming composition containing an electron transport layer material or an electron injection layer material can be prepared and these can be formed into films by a wet film-forming method.

[1255] <Other film forming methods>

[1256] Laser heating drawing method (Laser Induced Thermal Imaging (LITI)) can be used for film formation of the composition for forming an organic layer. LITI is a method of heating and evaporating a compound attached to a substrate using a laser, and the composition for forming an organic layer can be used in the material coated on the substrate.

[1257] <Optional Step>

[1258] Before and after each film forming step, appropriate treatment steps, cleaning steps and drying steps may be added as appropriate. Examples of the treatment steps include exposure treatment, plasma surface treatment, ultrasonic treatment, ozone treatment, cleaning treatment using an appropriate solvent, and heating treatment. Furthermore, a series of steps for making a bank may be mentioned.

[1259] Photolithography can be used in the production of the bank. As the bank material that can be photolithographically processed, positive resist materials and negative resist materials can be used. In addition, printing methods that can be patterned, such as inkjet printing, gravure lithography, reverse lithography, and screen printing, can also be used. At this time, a permanent resist material can also be used.

[1260] Examples of materials for the bank include polysaccharides and their derivatives, homopolymers and copolymers of vinyl monomers having hydroxyl groups, biopolymers, polyacryl compounds, polyesters, polystyrene, polyimides, polyamide-imides, polyetherimides, polysulfides, polysulfones, polyphenylenes, polyphenyl ethers, polyurethanes, (meth)acrylate epoxy esters, (meth)acrylate melamine esters, polyolefins, cyclic polyolefins, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymers (ABS), silicone resins, polyvinyl chloride, chlorinated polyethylene, chlorinated polypropylene, polyacetates, polynorbornene, synthetic rubbers, fluorinated polymers such as polyvinylidene fluoride, polytetrafluoroethylene, and polyhexafluoropropylene, copolymers of fluoroolefins and hydrocarbon olefins, and fluorocarbon polymers, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[1261] <Organic layer forming composition used in wet film forming method>

[1262] The composition for forming an organic layer is obtained by dissolving a low molecular compound that can form each organic layer of an organic EL element, or a high molecular compound obtained by polymerizing the low molecular compound, in an organic solvent. For example, the composition for forming a luminescent layer contains at least one polycyclic aromatic compound (or its high molecular compound) as a dopant material as a first component, at least one main material as a second component, and at least one organic solvent as a third component. The first component functions as a dopant component of the luminescent layer obtained from the composition, and the second component functions as a main component of the luminescent layer. The third component functions as a solvent that dissolves the first component and the second component in the composition, and obtains a smooth and uniform surface shape by the controlled evaporation rate of the third component itself during coating.

[1263] <Organic solvent>

[1264] The composition for forming an organic layer contains at least one organic solvent. By controlling the evaporation rate of the organic solvent during film formation, the film-forming property and the presence or absence of defects, surface roughness, and smoothness of the coating film can be controlled and improved. In addition, when the film is formed by an inkjet method, the stability of the meniscus at the pinhole of the inkjet head can be controlled, and the ejection property can be controlled and improved. In addition, by controlling the drying rate of the film and the orientation of the derivative molecules, the electrical properties, luminescent properties, efficiency, and life of the organic EL element having the organic layer obtained from the composition for forming an organic layer can be improved.

[1265] (1) Physical properties of organic solvents

[1266] The boiling point of at least one organic solvent is 130°C to 300°C, more preferably 140°C to 270°C, and further preferably 150°C to 250°C. From the perspective of inkjet ejection, the boiling point is preferably higher than 130°C. In addition, from the perspective of defects, surface roughness, residual solvent and smoothness of the coating film, the boiling point is preferably lower than 300°C. From the perspective of good inkjet ejection, film forming properties, smoothness and low residual solvent, the organic solvent is more preferably a structure containing two or more organic solvents. On the other hand, depending on the situation, taking into account transportability, etc., it can also be a composition made into a solid state by removing the solvent from the organic layer forming composition.

[1267] Furthermore, the organic solvent includes a good solvent (GS) and a poor solvent (PS) for at least one of the solutes, and the boiling point (BP) of the good solvent (GS) is particularly preferably GS ) is lower than the boiling point (BP) of the bad solvent (PS) PS ) structure.

[1268] By adding a high-boiling-point poor solvent, the low-boiling-point good solvent evaporates first during film formation, increasing the concentration of the components and the poor solvent in the composition and promoting rapid film formation. As a result, a coating film with fewer defects, less surface roughness, and high smoothness can be obtained.

[1269] The difference in solubility (S GS -S PS ) is preferably 1% or more, more preferably 3% or more, and still more preferably 5% or more. The difference in boiling point (BP PS -BP GS ) is preferably 10°C or higher, more preferably 30°C or higher, and even more preferably 50°C or higher.

[1270] The organic solvent is removed from the coating by drying steps such as vacuum, decompression, heating, etc. after film formation. When heating, from the perspective of improving the coating film-forming property, it is preferably carried out at a glass transition temperature (Tg) of at least one of the solutes + 30°C or less. In addition, from the perspective of reducing the residual solvent, it is preferably heated at a glass transition temperature (Tg) of at least one of the solutes -30°C or more. Even if the heating temperature is lower than the boiling point of the organic solvent, the organic solvent is fully removed because the film is thin. In addition, multiple dryings can be performed at different temperatures, and multiple drying methods can also be used in combination.

[1276] The composition for forming an organic layer may also contain a binder. The binder is used to bond the obtained film to the substrate while forming the film. In addition, it plays a role in dissolving, dispersing and bonding other components in the composition for forming an organic layer.

[1277] Examples of the binder used in the composition for forming the organic layer include acrylic resins, polyethylene terephthalate, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymers, acrylonitrile-ethylene-styrene (AES) resins, ionomers, chlorinated polyethers, diallyl phthalate resins, unsaturated polyester resins, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, polystyrene, polyvinyl acetate, Teflon, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) resins, acrylonitrile-styrene (AS) resins, phenol resins, epoxy resins, melamine resins, urea resins, alkyd resins, polyurethanes, and copolymers of the above resins and polymers, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[1278] The binder used in the composition for forming an organic layer may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[1279] (2) Surfactants

[1280] For example, in order to control the uniformity of the film surface, the affinity of the solvent and the liquid repellency of the film surface of the organic layer forming composition, the organic layer forming composition may also contain a surfactant. Surfactants are classified into ionic and nonionic according to the structure of the hydrophilic group, and are further classified into alkyl, silicon and fluorine according to the structure of the hydrophobic group. In addition, according to the structure of the molecule, it is classified into a monomolecular system with a simple structure having a relatively small molecular weight and a polymer system with a side chain or branch having a large molecular weight. In addition, according to the composition, it is classified into a single system, a mixed system mixed with two or more surfactants and a substrate. As a surfactant that can be used for the organic layer forming composition, all types of surfactants can be used.

[1281] Examples of the surfactant include Polyflow No. 45, Polyflow KL-245, Polyflow No. 75, Polyflow No. 90, and Polyflow No. 95 (trade names, manufactured by Kyoeisha Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.), Disperbyk 161, Disperbyk 162, Disperbyk 163, and Disperbyk 164. 4.

[1282] Furthermore, the surfactant may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[1283] <Composition and physical properties of the organic layer-forming composition>

[1284] The content of each component in the organic layer-forming composition is determined from the viewpoints of good solubility, storage stability and film-forming property of each component in the organic layer-forming composition, high-quality film quality of the coating obtained from the organic layer-forming composition, good ejection property when using the inkjet method, and good electrical properties, luminescent properties, efficiency and life of an organic EL element having an organic layer made using the composition. For example, in the case of a light-emitting layer-forming composition, it is preferred that the first component is 0.0001% by weight to 2.0% by weight relative to the total weight of the light-emitting layer-forming composition, the second component is 0.0999% by weight to 8.0% by weight relative to the total weight of the light-emitting layer-forming composition, and the third component is 90.0% by weight to 99.9% by weight relative to the total weight of the light-emitting layer-forming composition.

[1285] More preferably, the first component accounts for 0.005 to 1.0% by weight of the total weight of the composition for forming a light-emitting layer, the second component accounts for 0.095 to 4.0% by weight of the total weight of the composition for forming a light-emitting layer, and the third component accounts for 95.0 to 99.9% by weight of the total weight of the composition for forming a light-emitting layer. Even more preferably, the first component accounts for 0.05 to 0.5% by weight of the total weight of the composition for forming a light-emitting layer, the second component accounts for 0.25 to 2.5% by weight of the total weight of the composition for forming a light-emitting layer, and the third component accounts for 97.0 to 99.7% by weight of the total weight of the composition for forming a light-emitting layer.

[1286] The composition for forming an organic layer can be produced by appropriately selecting the above-mentioned components by stirring, mixing, heating, cooling, dissolving, dispersing, etc. using a known method. In addition, filtering, degassing (also called degassing), ion exchange treatment, and inert gas replacement and sealing treatment can also be appropriately selected after preparation.

[1287] Regarding the viscosity of the composition for forming an organic layer, a high viscosity can obtain good film-forming properties and good ejection properties when using an inkjet method. On the other hand, a low viscosity is easy to make a thin film. Therefore, the viscosity of the composition for forming an organic layer is preferably 0.3mPa·s to 3mPa·s at 25°C, and more preferably 1mPa·s to 3mPa·s. In the present invention, the viscosity is a value measured using a cone-plate type rotational viscometer.

[1288] Regarding the surface tension of the composition for forming an organic layer, a low surface tension can obtain good film forming properties and a defect-free coating film. On the other hand, a high surface tension can obtain good inkjet ejection properties. Therefore, the viscosity of the composition for forming an organic layer is preferably such that the surface tension at 25° C. is 20 mN / m to 40 mN / m, more preferably 20 mN / m to 30 mN / m. In the present invention, the surface tension is a value measured using a hanging drop method.

[1289] <Crosslinkable polymer compound: compound represented by general formula (XLP-1)>

[1290] Next, the case where the polymer compound has a crosslinkable substituent will be described. Such a crosslinkable polymer compound is, for example, a compound represented by the following general formula (XLP-1).

[1291] [Chemistry 341]

[1292]

[1293] In formula (XLP-1),

[1294] MUx, ECx and k have the same definitions as MU, EC and k in the formula (SPH-1), wherein the compound represented by the formula (XLP-1) has at least one cross-linking substituent (XLS), and preferably the content of the monovalent or divalent aromatic compound having a cross-linking substituent in the molecule is 0.1 wt% to 80 wt%.

[1295] The content of the monovalent or divalent aromatic compound having a crosslinkable substituent is preferably 0.5% by weight to 50% by weight, more preferably 1% by weight to 20% by weight.

[1296] As the crosslinkable substituent (XLS), if it is a group capable of further crosslinking the polymer compound, there is no particular limitation, and a substituent having the following structure is preferred. In each structural formula, * indicates the bonding position.

[1297] [Chemical formula 342]

[1298]

[1299] L is each independently a single bond, -O-, -S-, >C=O, -O-C(=O)-, an alkylene group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, an oxyalkylene group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, and a polyoxyalkylene group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms. Among the substituents, a group represented by formula (XLS-1), formula (XLS-2), formula (XLS-3), formula (XLS-9), formula (XLS-10), or formula (XLS-17) is preferred, and a group represented by formula (XLS-1), formula (XLS-3), or formula (XLS-17) is more preferred.

[1300] As the divalent aromatic compound having a crosslinkable substituent, for example, a compound having the following partial structure can be cited. In the following structural formula, * indicates the bonding position.

[1301] [Chemical formula 343]

[1302]

[1303] [Chemical formula 344]

[1304]

[1305] [Chemical formula 345]

[1306]

[1307] [Chemical formula 346]

[1308]

[1309] <Manufacturing methods of polymer compounds and crosslinkable polymer compounds>

[1310] Regarding the manufacturing methods of polymer compounds and crosslinkable polymer compounds, the compounds represented by the formula (SPH-1) and the compound represented by the formula (XLP-1) will be described as examples. These compounds can be synthesized by appropriately combining known manufacturing methods.

[1311] As the solvent used in the reaction, aromatic solvents, saturated / unsaturated hydrocarbon solvents, alcohol solvents, ether solvents, etc. can be cited. For example, dimethoxyethane, 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethane, 2-(2-ethoxyethoxy)ethane, etc. can be cited.

[1312] Alternatively, the reaction may be carried out in a two-phase system. In the case of carrying out the reaction in a two-phase system, a phase transfer catalyst such as a quaternary ammonium salt may be added as necessary.

[1313] When the compound of formula (SPH-1) and the compound of formula (XLP-1) are manufactured, they can be manufactured in one stage or in multiple stages. In addition, it can be carried out by a general polymerization method in which all the raw materials are placed in a reaction vessel and then the reaction is started, it can also be carried out by a drop polymerization method in which the raw materials are added dropwise to the reaction vessel, it can also be carried out by a precipitation polymerization method in which the product is precipitated as the reaction proceeds, and these can be appropriately combined to synthesize. For example, when the compound represented by formula (SPH-1) is synthesized in one stage, the target is obtained by reacting the monomer unit (MU) and the end-capping unit (EC) in a state where the monomer unit (MU) and the end-capping unit (EC) are added to the reaction vessel. In addition, when the compound represented by general formula (SPH-1) is synthesized in multiple stages, the target is obtained by adding the end-capping unit (EC) and reacting after the monomer unit (MU) is polymerized to the target molecular weight. If different types of monomer units (MU) are added in multiple stages to react, a polymer having a concentration gradient for the structure of the monomer unit can be produced. In addition, after the precursor polymer is prepared, a polymer as the target can be obtained by subsequent reactions.

[1314] In addition, if the polymerizable group of the monomer unit (MU) is selected, the primary structure of the polymer can be controlled. For example, as shown in synthesis schemes 1 to 3, a polymer having a random primary structure (synthesis scheme 1), a polymer having a regular primary structure (synthesis schemes 2 and 3), etc. can be synthesized, and can be used in appropriate combinations according to the target. Furthermore, if a monomer unit having three or more polymerizable groups is used, a hyperbranched polymer or a dendrimer can be synthesized.

[1315] [Chemistry 347]

[1316]

[1317] The monomer units that can be used in the present invention are those described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-189630, International Publication No. 2012 / 086671, International Publication No. 2013 / 191088, International Publication No. 2002 / 045184, International Publication No. 2011 / 049241, International Publication No. 2013 / 146806, International Publication No. 2005 / 049546, and International Publication No. 2015 / 145871. , Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2010-215886, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2008-106241, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2010-215886, International Publication No. 2016 / 031639, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2011-174062, International Publication No. 2016 / 031639, International Publication No. 2016 / 031639, and International Publication No. 2002 / 045184.

[1318] In addition, regarding the specific polymer synthesis procedure, it can be based on Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2012-036388, International Publication No. 2015 / 008851, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2012-36381, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2012-144722, International Publication No. 2015 / 194448, International Publication No. 2013 / 146806, International Publication No. 2015 / 145871, International Publication No. The present invention can be synthesized by the method described in International Publication No. 2016 / 031639, International Publication No. 2016 / 125560, International Publication No. 2016 / 031639, International Publication No. 2016 / 031639, International Publication No. 2016 / 125560, International Publication No. 2015 / 145871, International Publication No. 2011 / 049241, and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-144722.

[1319] <Application examples of organic electroluminescent elements>

[1320] Furthermore, the present invention can also be applied to a display device including an organic EL element, a lighting device including an organic EL element, or the like.

[1321] A display device or lighting device having an organic EL element can be manufactured by a known method such as connecting the organic EL element of this embodiment to a known driving device, and can be driven using a known driving method such as DC driving, pulse driving, AC driving, etc. as appropriate.

[1322] As display devices, for example, panel displays such as color flat panel displays, flexible displays such as flexible color organic electroluminescent (EL) displays, etc. (for example, refer to Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-335066, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-321546, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-281086, etc.). In addition, as display modes of displays, for example, matrix and segment modes can be listed. Furthermore, matrix display and segment display can coexist in the same panel.

[1323] The matrix is ​​a two-dimensional arrangement of pixels for display in a grid or mosaic shape, etc., which displays text or images through a collection of pixels. The shape or size of the pixel is determined according to the purpose. For example, in the image and text display of personal computers, monitors, and televisions, quadrilateral pixels with a side of less than 300μm are usually used. In addition, in the case of large displays such as display panels, pixels with a side of mm are used. In the case of monochrome display, it is sufficient to arrange pixels of the same color. In the case of color display, red, green, and blue pixels are displayed in parallel. In this case, typical ones are triangular and stripe types. Moreover, as a driving method of the matrix, it can be either a line-sequential driving method or an active matrix. Line-sequential driving has the advantage of a simple structure, but in the case of considering the operating characteristics, an active matrix is ​​sometimes more excellent, so the driving method also needs to be used according to the purpose.

[1324] In the segmented method (type), a pattern is formed in a manner to display predetermined information, and the determined area is illuminated. Examples include: time or temperature display in a digital clock or thermometer, operating status display of an audio device or induction cooker, and panel display of a car.

[1325] As lighting devices, for example, lighting devices for indoor lighting, backlight sources for liquid crystal display devices, etc. (for example, refer to Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-257621, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-277741, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-119211, etc.). Backlight sources are mainly used to improve the visibility of display devices that do not emit light by themselves, and are used for liquid crystal display devices, clocks, audio devices, automobile panels, display boards, and logos. In particular, as a backlight source for personal computers where thinning is becoming a problem in liquid crystal display devices, if it is considered that the existing methods are difficult to be thinned due to the inclusion of fluorescent lamps or light guide plates, the backlight source using the light-emitting element of this embodiment has the characteristics of being thin and lightweight.

[1326] 3-2. Other organic components

[1327] In addition to the organic electroluminescent element, the polycyclic aromatic compound of the present invention can be used to prepare organic field effect transistors or organic thin film solar cells.

[1328] An organic field effect transistor is a transistor that controls current by using an electric field generated by voltage input. In addition to the source electrode and the drain electrode, a gate electrode is provided. If a voltage is applied to the gate electrode, an electric field is generated, and the flow of electrons (or holes) flowing between the source electrode and the drain electrode can be arbitrarily blocked to control the current. Compared with a single transistor (bipolar transistor), a field effect transistor is easy to miniaturize and is often used as a component constituting an integrated circuit.

[1329] The structure of an organic field effect transistor is usually provided by making the source electrode and the drain electrode contact the organic semiconductor active layer formed using the polycyclic aromatic compound of the present invention, and further providing the gate electrode via an insulating layer (dielectric layer) contacting the organic semiconductor active layer. As its element structure, for example, the following structure can be cited.

[1330] (1) Substrate / gate electrode / insulator layer / source electrode / drain electrode / organic semiconductor active layer

[1331] (2) Substrate / gate electrode / insulator layer / organic semiconductor active layer / source electrode / drain electrode

[1332] (3) Substrate / organic semiconductor active layer / source electrode / drain electrode / insulator layer / gate electrode

[1333] (4) Substrate / source electrode / drain electrode / organic semiconductor active layer / insulator layer / gate electrode

[1334] The organic field effect transistor having such a structure can be used as a pixel driving switch element of an active matrix driven liquid crystal display or an organic electroluminescent display.

[1335] Organic thin film solar cells have a structure in which an anode, a hole transport layer, a photoelectric conversion layer, an electron transport layer, and a cathode of ITO or the like are stacked on a transparent substrate such as glass. The photoelectric conversion layer has a p-type semiconductor layer on the anode side and an n-type semiconductor layer on the cathode side. The polycyclic aromatic compounds of the present invention can be used as materials for hole transport layers, p-type semiconductor layers, n-type semiconductor layers, and electron transport layers according to their physical properties. In organic thin film solar cells, the polycyclic aromatic compounds of the present invention can function as hole transport materials or electron transport materials. In addition to the above, organic thin film solar cells may also be appropriately equipped with hole blocking layers, electron blocking layers, electron injection layers, hole injection layers, smoothing layers, etc. In organic thin film solar cells, known materials used for organic thin film solar cells can be appropriately selected for use in combination.
