Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] This application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2024-0062870, filed on May 14, 2024, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein.
[0002] The present specification relates to an organic compound and an organic light emitting device including the same. BACKGROUND
[0003] Generally, an organic light emitting phenomenon refers to a phenomenon that converts electrical energy into light energy by using an organic substance. An organic light emitting device utilizing the organic light emitting phenomenon typically has a structure including an anode and a cathode and an organic layer between them. Here, in order to improve efficiency and stability of the organic light emitting device, the organic layer is mostly formed of a multi-layer structure using different substances respectively, for example, can be formed of a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light emitting layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, etc. For such a structure of the organic light emitting device, if a voltage is applied between two electrodes, holes are injected from the anode into the organic layer, and electrons are injected from the cathode into the organic layer, and when the injected holes and electrons meet, excitons are formed, and when the excitons re-trip to a ground state, light is emitted.
[0004] There is a continuous demand for development of new materials for an organic light emitting device as described above.

[0043] In this specification, "*" indicates the position associated with a chemical formula or compound.
[0044] In this specification, the intramolecular deuterium substitution distribution is determined using the two methods described below. TLC-MS, one of these methods, is used to adjust the deuterium substitution ratio during the synthesis of the compound.
[0045] 1. Using TLC-MS (Thin-Layer Chromatography / Mass Spectrometry) (synthetic process verification method)
[0046] The substitution rate can be calculated based on the maximum value (max. value) of the molecular weight distribution at the end of the reaction.
[0047] 2. Quantitative analysis using NMR
[0048] DMF (dimethylformamide) can be added as an internal standard. 1The integration ratio on H-NMR is used to calculate the D-substitution rate from the integration amount of the total peak.
