Description

Compounds and organic electroluminescent elements using the same 【0001】 This invention relates to a novel compound and an organic electroluminescent device using the same. 【0002】 When a voltage is applied to an organic electroluminescent element (hereinafter also called an organic EL element), holes are injected from the anode and electrons from the cathode into the light-emitting layer. Then, in the light-emitting layer, the injected holes and electrons recombine to form excitons. 【0003】 Conventional organic EL devices have not yet achieved sufficient performance. While improvements to the materials used in organic EL devices are gradually being made to enhance performance (for example, Patent Document 1), further performance improvements are required. 【0004】 International Publication No. 2022 / 264827 【0005】 The object of the present invention is to provide a high-performance organic EL element and a compound capable of realizing said organic EL element. 【0006】 The present invention provides the following compounds, etc. 1. A compound represented by the following formula (1). (In formula (1), R １ ~R １１ Each of these is independently a hydrogen atom, or a substituted or unsubstituted ring-forming aryl group having 6 to 14 carbon atoms. ２１ ~R ３４ Each of these is independently a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C6 alkyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted ring-forming C5-C10 cycloalkyl group. 2. An organic electroluminescent element comprising: a cathode; an anode; and one or more organic layers disposed between the cathode and the anode, wherein at least one of the organic layers contains the compound described in 1 above. 【0007】 According to the present invention, a high-performance organic EL element and a compound capable of realizing the organic EL element can be provided. 【0008】 This figure shows a schematic configuration of an organic EL element according to one aspect of the present invention. 【0009】 [Definition] In this specification, the term "hydrogen atom" includes isotopes with different numbers of neutrons, namely protium atom, deuterium atom, and tritium atom. 【0010】 In this specification, in chemical structural formulas, any bondable positions where symbols such as "R" or "D" representing a deuterium atom are not explicitly indicated shall be assumed to be bonded to hydrogen atoms, i.e., light hydrogen atoms, deuterium atoms, or tritium atoms. 【0011】 In this specification, the ring-forming carbon number refers to the number of carbon atoms among the atoms constituting the ring itself in a compound with a structure in which atoms are bonded in a ring (e.g., monocyclic compounds, fused ring compounds, crosslinked compounds, carbocyclic compounds, and heterocyclic compounds). If the ring is substituted by a substituent, the carbon atoms in the substituent are not included in the ring-forming carbon number. The same applies to "ring-forming carbon number" as described below unless otherwise specified. For example, a benzene ring has 6 ring-forming carbon atoms, a naphthalene ring has 10 ring-forming carbon atoms, a pyridine ring has 5 ring-forming carbon atoms, and a furan ring has 4 ring-forming carbon atoms. Also, for example, a 9,9-diphenylfluorenyl group has 13 ring-forming carbon atoms, and a 9,9'-spirobifluorenyl group has 25 ring-forming carbon atoms. Furthermore, if a benzene ring is substituted with an alkyl group as a substituent, the number of carbon atoms in the alkyl group is not included in the ring-forming carbon number of the benzene ring. Therefore, the ring-forming carbon number of a benzene ring substituted with an alkyl group is 6. Furthermore, if an alkyl group is substituted as a substituent on the naphthalene ring, the number of carbon atoms in that alkyl group is not included in the number of ring-forming carbon atoms of the naphthalene ring. Therefore, the number of ring-forming carbon atoms in a naphthalene ring substituted with an alkyl group is 10. 【0012】In this specification, the number of ring-forming atoms refers to the number of atoms that constitute the ring itself in compounds with a ring-bonded structure (e.g., monocyclic compounds, fused rings, and ring assemblies) (e.g., monocyclic compounds, fused ring compounds, bridged compounds, carbocyclic compounds, and heterocyclic compounds). Atoms that do not constitute a ring (e.g., hydrogen atoms that terminate the bonds of ring-forming atoms) and atoms included in substituents when the ring is substituted by substituents are not included in the number of ring-forming atoms. The same applies to "number of ring-forming atoms" as described below unless otherwise specified. For example, the number of ring-forming atoms in a pyridine ring is 6, the number of ring-forming atoms in a quinazoline ring is 10, and the number of ring-forming atoms in a furan ring is 5. For example, the number of hydrogen atoms bonded to a pyridine ring, or the number of atoms constituting a substituent, are not included in the number of pyridine ring-forming atoms. Therefore, the number of ring-forming atoms in a pyridine ring to which hydrogen atoms or substituents are bonded is 6. Furthermore, for example, hydrogen atoms bonded to the carbon atom of the quinazoline ring, or atoms constituting substituents, are not included in the number of ring-forming atoms of the quinazoline ring. Therefore, the number of ring-forming atoms of a quinazoline ring to which hydrogen atoms or substituents are bonded is 10. 【0013】 In this specification, the expression "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group having XX to YY carbon atoms" means that "XX to YY carbon atoms" refers to the number of carbon atoms when the ZZ group is unsubstituted, and does not include the number of carbon atoms of substituents when it is substituted. Here, "YY" is greater than "XX", "XX" means an integer of 1 or more, and "YY" means an integer of 2 or more. 【0014】 In this specification, the expression "ZZ group with substituted or unsubstituted atoms number XX to YY" means that "number of atoms XX to YY" refers to the number of atoms when the ZZ group is unsubstituted, and does not include the number of substituent atoms when it is substituted. Here, "YY" is greater than "XX", "XX" means an integer of 1 or more, and "YY" means an integer of 2 or more. 【0015】In this specification, an unsubstituted ZZ group refers to a case where "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" is an "unsubstituted ZZ group," and a substituted ZZ group refers to a case where "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" is a "substituted ZZ group." In this specification, "unsubstituted" in the case of "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" means that the hydrogen atoms in the ZZ group are not replaced by substituents. The hydrogen atoms in an "unsubstituted ZZ group" are light hydrogen atoms, deuterium atoms, or tritium atoms. Also, in this specification, "substituted" in the case of "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" means that one or more hydrogen atoms in the ZZ group are replaced by substituents. Similarly, "substituted" in the case of "BB group substituted with AA group" means that one or more hydrogen atoms in the BB group are replaced by AA group. 【0016】 "Substituents described herein" Hereinafter, substituents described herein will be explained. 【0017】The number of ring-forming carbon atoms in the "unsubstituted aryl group" described herein is 6 to 50, preferably 6 to 30, more preferably 6 to 18, unless otherwise specified herein.

The cases in this specification where "one or more pairs of adjacent elements combine to form a substituted or unsubstituted monoring" and the case where "one or more pairs of adjacent elements combine to form a substituted or unsubstituted fused ring" (hereinafter, these cases may be collectively referred to as "when they combine to form a ring") will be explained below. We will explain using the example of an anthracene compound represented by the following general formula (TEMP-103), whose parent skeleton is an anthracene ring. 【0096】 【0097】 For example, R ９２１~R ９３０ In the case where "one or more pairs of adjacent groups are joined together to form a ring," the pairs of adjacent groups that make up one set are R ９２１ and R ９２２ The group, R ９２２ and R ９２３ The group, R ９２３ and R ９２４ The group, R ９２４ and R ９３０ The group, R ９３０ and R ９２５ The group, R ９２５ and R ９２６ The group, R ９２６ and R ９２７ The group, R ９２７ and R ９２８ The group, R ９２８ and R ９２９ The pair with, and R ９２９ and R ９２１ They are a pair. 【0098】 The phrase "one or more sets" above means that two or more sets of the above-mentioned sets of two or more adjacent elements may simultaneously form a ring. For example, R ９２１ and R ９２２ and are joined to each other to form a ring Q Ａ Forms R ９２５ and R ９２６ and are joined to each other to form a ring Q Ｂ If the above general formula (TEMP-103) is formed, the anthracene compound represented by the above general formula (TEMP-104) is represented by the following general formula (TEMP-104). 【0099】 【0100】 The case where "two or more adjacent elements form a ring" includes not only cases where two adjacent elements are joined, as in the example above, but also cases where three or more adjacent elements are joined. For example, R ９２１ and R ９２２ and are joined to each other to form a ring Q Ａ Forms R ９２２ and R ９２３ and are joined to each other to form a ring Q Ｃ It forms three adjacent (R ９２１ , R ９２２ and R９２３ A combination consisting of ) combines with each other to form a ring and condenses with the anthracene backbone. In this case, the anthracene compound represented by the general formula (TEMP-103) is represented by the following general formula (TEMP-105). In the following general formula (TEMP-105), ring Q Ａ and ring Q Ｃ share R ９２２ . 【0101】 【0102】 The "monocyclic" or "condensed ring" formed is a saturated or unsaturated ring as the structure of only the formed ring. Even when "one set consisting of two adjacent ones" forms a "monocyclic" or "condensed ring", the "monocyclic" or "condensed ring" can form a saturated or unsaturated ring. For example, ring Q formed in the general formula (TEMP-104) Ａ and ring Q Ｂ are each a "monocyclic" or "condensed ring". Also, ring Q formed in the general formula (TEMP-105) Ａ , and ring Q Ｃ are "condensed rings". Ring Q Ａ and ring Q Ｃ in the general formula (TEMP-105) are a condensed ring formed by the condensation of ring Q Ａ and ring Q Ｃ . If ring Q Ａ in the general formula (TEMP-104) is a benzene ring, ring Q Ａ is a monocyclic ring. If ring Q Ａ in the general formula (TEMP-104) is a naphthalene ring, ring Q Ａ is a condensed ring. 【0103】"Unsaturated ring" includes aromatic hydrocarbon rings, aromatic heterocyclic rings, aliphatic hydrocarbon rings having unsaturated bonds, i.e., double bonds and / or triple bonds in the ring structure (e.g., cyclohexene, cyclohexadiene, etc.), and non-aromatic heterocyclic rings having unsaturated bonds (e.g., dihydropyran, imidazoline, pyrazoline, quinolidine, indoline, isoindoline, etc.). "Saturated ring" includes aliphatic hydrocarbon rings having no unsaturated bonds or non-aromatic heterocyclic rings having no unsaturated bonds. Specific examples of aromatic hydrocarbon rings include structures in which the groups listed as specific examples in specific example group G1 are terminated by hydrogen atoms. Specific examples of aromatic heterocyclic rings include structures in which the aromatic heterocyclic groups listed as specific examples in specific example group G2 are terminated by hydrogen atoms. Specific examples of aliphatic hydrocarbon rings include structures in which the groups listed as specific examples in specific example group G6 are terminated by hydrogen atoms. "Forming a ring" means forming a ring with only a plurality of atoms of the mother skeleton or with a plurality of atoms of the mother skeleton and one or more arbitrary atoms. For example, in the general formula (TEMP-104), the ring Q formed by bonding R ９２１ and R ９２２ to each other means a ring formed by a carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton to which R Ａ is bonded, a carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton to which R ９２１ is bonded, and one or more arbitrary atoms. As a specific example, when forming the ring Q ９２２ with R ９２１ and R ９２２ , a monocyclic unsaturated ring is formed by a carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton to which R Ａ is bonded, a carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton to which R ９２１ is bonded, and four carbon atoms. When R ９２２ and R ９２１ form a ring, the ring formed is a benzene ring. 【0104】 ​​Here, "any atom" is preferably at least one atom selected from the group consisting of carbon atoms, nitrogen atoms, oxygen atoms, and sulfur atoms, unless otherwise specified herein. In any atom (for example, carbon atoms or nitrogen atoms), bonds that do not form a ring may be terminated with hydrogen atoms or the like, or substituted with "any substituents" described later. If any atom other than carbon atoms is included, the formed ring is a heterocycle. The "one or more any atoms" constituting a monocycle or fused ring are preferably 2 to 15, more preferably 3 to 12, and even more preferably 3 to 5, unless otherwise specified herein. Of "monocycles" and "fused rings," "monocycles" are preferred, unless otherwise specified herein. Of "saturated rings" and "unsaturated rings," "unsaturated rings" are preferred, unless otherwise specified herein. When "one or more sets of two or more adjacent atoms" "bond to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted monoring" or "bond to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted fused ring", unless otherwise specified herein, preferably, one or more sets of two or more adjacent atoms bond to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted "unsaturated ring" consisting of multiple atoms of the parent skeleton and at least one atom selected from the group consisting of 1 to 15 carbon atoms, nitrogen atoms, oxygen atoms, and sulfur atoms. 【0105】The substituents in the case where the above-mentioned "mono-ring" or "fused ring" has substituents are, for example, "any substituents" as described later. Specific examples of substituents in the case where the above-mentioned "mono-ring" or "fused ring" has substituents are the substituents described in the section "Substituents as described in this specification" above. The substituents in the case where the above-mentioned "saturated ring" or "unsaturated ring" has substituents are, for example, "any substituents" as described later. Specific examples of substituents in the case where the above-mentioned "mono-ring" or "fused ring" has substituents are the substituents described in the section "Substituents as described in this specification" above. The above explains the cases where "one or more sets of two or more adjacent elements are bonded to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted mono-ring" and where "one or more sets of two or more adjacent elements are bonded to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted fused ring" ("when they are bonded to form a ring"). 【0106】 - Substituents in the case of "substituted or unsubstituted" In one embodiment of this specification, the substituents in the case of "substituted or unsubstituted" (which may be referred to as "any substituents" in this specification) are, for example, unsubstituted C1-C50 alkyl groups, unsubstituted C2-C50 alkenyl groups, unsubstituted C2-C50 alkynyl groups, unsubstituted ring-forming C3-C50 cycloalkyl groups, -Si(R ９０１ ) (Caution ９０２ ) (Caution ９０３ ), -O-(R ９０４ ), -S-(R ９０５ ), -N(R ９０６ ) (Caution ９０７ ), a group selected from the group consisting of halogen atoms, cyano groups, nitro groups, unsubstituted aryl groups with 6 to 50 ring-forming atoms, and unsubstituted heterocyclic groups with 5 to 50 ring-forming atoms, where R ９０１ ~R ９０７ Each of these is independently a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C50 alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted ring-forming C3-C50 cycloalkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted ring-forming C6-C50 aryl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted ring-forming C5-C50 heterocyclic group. ９０１ If there are two or more of them, then there are two or more R９０１ They are either identical or different from each other, R ９０２ If there are two or more of them, then there are two or more R ９０２ They are either identical or different from each other, R ９０３ If there are two or more of them, then there are two or more R ９０３ They are either identical or different from each other, R ９０４ If there are two or more of them, then there are two or more R ９０４ They are either identical or different from each other, R ９０５ If there are two or more of them, then there are two or more R ９０５ They are either identical or different from each other, R ９０６ If there are two or more of them, then there are two or more R ９０６ They are either identical or different from each other, R ９０７ If there are two or more of them, then there are two or more R ９０７ They are either identical or different from one another. 【0107】 In one embodiment, the substituent in the case of "substituted or unsubstituted" is a group selected from the group consisting of alkyl groups having 1 to 50 carbon atoms, aryl groups having 6 to 50 ring-forming carbon atoms, and heterocyclic groups having 5 to 50 ring-forming atoms. 【0108】 In one embodiment, the substituent in the case of "substituted or unsubstituted" is a group selected from the group consisting of alkyl groups having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, aryl groups having 6 to 18 ring-forming carbon atoms, and heterocyclic groups having 5 to 18 ring-forming atoms. 【0109】 Specific examples of each of the above-mentioned substituents are the specific examples of substituents described in the section "Substituents as described herein" above. 【0110】Unless otherwise specified herein, any adjacent substituents may form a "saturated ring" or an "unsaturated ring," preferably a substituted or unsubstituted saturated five-membered ring, a substituted or unsubstituted saturated six-membered ring, a substituted or unsubstituted unsaturated five-membered ring, or a substituted or unsubstituted unsaturated six-membered ring, and more preferably a benzene ring. Unless otherwise specified herein, any substituent may have further substituents, the same as those described above for any substituent. 【0111】 In this specification, the numerical range expressed using "AA to BB" means a range that includes the numerical value AA, which is written before "AA to BB", as the lower limit, and the numerical value BB, which is written after "AA to BB", as the upper limit.
