Description

  The present invention relates to a fluorene compound and an organic electroluminescence device (organic EL device) using the fluorene compound.

  Recent progress in organic light-emitting devices is remarkable, and features such as high brightness, variety of emission wavelengths, high-speed response, thinness, and light-weight light-emitting devices with low applied voltage, potential for wide-ranging applications It suggests.

  However, under the present circumstances, light output with higher brightness or higher conversion efficiency is required. In addition, there are still many problems in terms of durability, such as changes over time due to long-term use and deterioration due to atmospheric gas or moisture containing oxygen. Furthermore, blue, green and red light emission with good color purity is required when considering application to a full color display or the like, but these problems are still not sufficient.

  In addition, many aromatic organic compounds and condensed polycyclic aromatic compounds have been studied as fluorescent organic compounds for use in the electron transport layer, the light emitting layer, and the like. It's hard to say.

  Patent Documents 1 to 3 disclose applications of fluorene compounds to organic EL. Non-patent document 1 reports a fluorene compound as an application to a laser dye.

  The light emitting device of the present invention using the fluorene compound of the present invention, particularly the light emitting device of the present invention used as a host of the light emitting layer, maintains not only high efficiency light emission but also high brightness for a longer period of time than a conventionally used compound. It is an excellent device. In addition, the current value at the same voltage value is large, and low voltage driving can be expected.

It is a figure which shows an example of the light emitting element of this invention.

  First, the fluorene compound of the present invention will be described.

When the light emitting layer is composed of a carrier material having a carrier transport property and a guest, the main process leading to light emission includes the following several processes.
1. 1. Transport of electrons and holes in the light emitting layer 2. Host exciton generation 3. Excitation energy transfer between host molecules Excitation energy transfer from host to guest

  Desired energy transfer and light emission in each process occur in competition with various deactivation processes.

  Needless to say, in order to increase the luminous efficiency of the EL element, the emission quantum yield of the emission center material itself is large. However, how to efficiently transfer energy between the host and the host or between the host and the guest is also a big problem. Further, although the cause of light emission deterioration due to energization is not clear at present, it is assumed that it is related to the environmental change of the light emitting material due to at least the luminescent center material itself or its peripheral molecules.

  Therefore, the present inventors have made various studies and used the fluorene compounds represented by the general formulas (1) to (8) for the charge transport layer and the light emitting layer of the organic EL device, preferably the host of the light emitting layer or I found the following by using it as a guest. That is, it has been found that high-efficiency light emission, high luminance is maintained for a long period of time, and current conduction deterioration is small.

  One of the causes of light emission deterioration due to energization is the mobility of the host in the light emitting layer. If the molecular shape of the light emitting layer is small in the overlap of the conjugate planes between the molecules, the mobility is lowered and the driving voltage is increased. This can also cause a decrease in injectability. From this point of view, it is considered necessary to design a molecule having a skeleton with overlapping molecules. However, since the site | part which has the overlap between this molecule | numerator lengthens conjugation length, based on this point, it is necessary not to shorten conjugation of the site | part used as a core remarkably.

  Considering the overlapping of molecules and the point of conjugation length, the fluorene compound of the present invention has a central skeleton site (one or more connected fluorenyl groups) and an overlapping site (a condensed ring structure consisting only of hydrocarbons). Are preferably connected by a paraphenyl group. This is because, when the condensed ring skeleton and the fluorenyl group are bonded without using a phenyl group, conjugation is connected, and thus it is difficult to control the mobility. Control becomes easy. This can control the optimum amount of charge in the layer of the organic EL element, so that it is possible to maintain high luminance for a long period of time with high-efficiency light emission and small deterioration in energization. However, in this case, if there are phenyl groups on both sides, there are two phenyl groups and two condensed ring structures, so the molecular weight tends to increase. Since this point causes a problem in sublimation, the phenyl group and the condensed ring structure may be on both sides, but the phenyl group and the condensed ring structure are preferably only on one side. Alternatively, when the phenyl group is on both sides, the condensed ring structure on one side is preferably about naphthalene. Alternatively, in the case of a pyrenyl group or the like, in order to suppress intermolecular force and improve sublimation, a pyrenyl group has a substituent, or when there is no substituent in the pyrenyl group, a methyl group is adjacent to the phenyl group. It is preferable to have a substituent such as Further, since the glass transition temperature and the melting point tend to decrease when the 9-position alkyl group of the fluorenyl group of the central skeleton becomes long, the 9-position of the fluorenyl group is preferably a methyl group, but the ethyl group, propyl group, butyl group A long chain alkyl group such as The 9-position chain length of each fluorenyl group is preferably the same from the viewpoint of synthesis, but may be different. The substituent of the phenyl group is preferably a hydrogen atom from the viewpoint of conductivity, but may be an alkyl group such as a methyl group or an ethyl group from the viewpoint of conjugation length and crystallinity.

In addition, the guest molecule needs to have a skeleton with a high quantum yield, and a skeleton with a high quantum yield needs to be introduced into the condensed ring portion. From these points, since the compound of the present invention has a condensed ring structure, when it is used as a light emitting layer of a fluorescent light emitting device, it should be used for either a blue to red, mainly a blue to green host or a guest material. Can do. In order to obtain a high-efficiency light-emitting device, a condensed ring is formed with SP ² carbon, which is said to have a high quantum yield and a high charge transporting property, such as pyrene, anthracene, fluoranthane, This can be realized by using a skeleton such as benzofluoranthane, perylene, tetracene, chrysene, and picene. It can also be realized similarly by using a skeleton such as a fluorenyl group.

  In addition, it is possible to control the charge transporting property of the molecule by introducing the number of phenyl groups and the substituents in the phenyl group, which are selectively used when they have this condensed ring structure on both sides or on one side. Adjustment of the condensed ring structure and the number of phenyl groups is effective in order to achieve a carrier balance of the device, and it can be expected to have a longer life and higher efficiency.

  Further, when this material is used as a host material, a host material having a high electron transporting property and a guest material having a hole transporting property can be combined by using a guest material having a condensed ring + amine skeleton as a light emitting material. By doing so, the charge in the light emitting layer is balanced, and high efficiency and long life light emission can be expected. Of course, even if the host and guest are skeletons composed only of hydrocarbons, high efficiency and long life can be realized by using the compound of the present invention.

  The compound of the present invention is thus effective for use in the light emitting layer, but is also effective as an electron transport layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, a hole blocking layer, an electron injection layer, and a hole injection layer. is there.

  Hereinafter, specific structural formulas of the organic compounds used in the present invention are shown below. However, these are merely representative examples, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

  The fluorene compound of the present invention can be synthesized by a combination of a fluorene derivative, a halogenated benzene derivative and a benzeneboronic acid derivative, as appropriate, by a Suzuki coupling reaction.

  Next, the organic electroluminescence element of the present invention will be described.

  The element of the present invention is an organic electroluminescence element having a layer containing at least one organic compound between a pair of electrodes, and at least one of the layers containing an organic compound, preferably the light emitting layer is the fluorene of the present invention. It is a layer containing a compound.

  The light emitting layer is composed of two or more compounds of a host and a guest, and the host is preferably the fluorene compound of the present invention. In this case, generally known fluorescent materials and phosphorescent materials can be used as guest molecules. In order to obtain a high-efficiency light-emitting element, metal coordination compounds such as an Ir complex, a Pt complex, a Re complex, a Cu complex, an Eu complex, and an Rh complex that are known to emit phosphorescence are preferably used. More preferably, it is an Ir coordination compound known to emit strong phosphorescence. Furthermore, a plurality of phosphorescent materials can be included in the light emitting layer for the purpose of light emission from the light emitting layer and assisting excitons and charge transfer. In addition, arylamine compounds and hydrocarbon compounds having a condensed ring are also preferable as guests.

  In the device of the present invention, the light emitting layer may be composed of two or more compounds of a host and a guest, and the guest may be the fluorene compound of the present invention. In this case, the emission from the guest is preferably fluorescence. Furthermore, a plurality of fluorescent light emitting materials can be contained in the light emitting layer for the purpose of light emission of a plurality of colors from the light emitting layer and assisting excitons and charge transfer.

  The organic layer containing the fluorene compound of the present invention can be formed by a vacuum deposition method, a casting method, a coating method, a spin coating method, an ink jet method, a laminating method, or the like.

  Examples of electron transport materials and hole transport materials that can be used in the present invention are shown below. However, this is not the case.

  Moreover, an example of the light emission dopant which can be used in combination with the compound of this invention is shown below. However, this is not the case.

  A configuration example of the element of the present invention is shown in FIG.

  FIG. 1A shows an example in which the organic layer is composed of the light emitting layer 12 and the hole transport layer 13.

  As the transparent electrode 14, ITO or the like having a large work function is used to facilitate hole injection from the transparent electrode 14 into the hole transport layer 13. The metal electrode 11 is made of a metal material having a small work function, such as aluminum, magnesium, or an alloy using them, to facilitate electron injection into the organic layer.

  Although the fluorene compound of the present invention is preferably used for the light emitting layer 12, a material having an electron donating property such as a triphenyldiamine derivative, typically α-NPD, for example, is also appropriately used for the hole transport layer 13. Can do.

  The element configured as described above exhibits electrical rectification. When an electric field is applied so that the metal electrode 11 serves as a cathode and the transparent electrode 14 serves as an anode, electrons are injected from the metal electrode 11 into the light emitting layer 12, and the transparent electrode 15. Holes are injected.

  The injected holes and electrons recombine in the light emitting layer 12 to generate excitons and emit light. At this time, the hole transport layer 13 serves as an electron blocking layer, and the recombination efficiency at the interface between the light emitting layer 12 and the hole transport layer 13 is increased, and the light emission efficiency is increased.

  Further, in FIG. 1B, an electron transport layer 16 is provided between the metal electrode 11 and the light emitting layer 12 in FIG. Luminous efficiency is increased by separating the light emitting function and the electron and hole transporting function to form a more effective carrier blocking structure. As the electron transport layer 16, for example, an oxadiazole derivative or the like can be used.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 1C, a four-layer structure including a hole transport layer 13, a light emitting layer 12, an exciton diffusion preventing layer 17, an electron transport layer 16, and a metal electrode 11 from the transparent electrode 14 side that is an anode. It is also a desirable form.
