Description

  The present invention relates to a polymer compound and a polymer light emitting device using the polymer compound.

High molecular weight light-emitting materials and charge transport materials have been studied in various ways because they are soluble in a solvent and can form an organic layer in a light-emitting element by a coating method. For example, as a repeating unit, a cyclopentadiene ring has two benzenes. A polymer compound having a structure in which a ring is condensed is known (for example, see Non-Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 1).

  In addition, polymer compounds having a functional substituent such as a hole injection / transport group, an electron injection / transport group, or a light emitting group in the side chain of the conjugated main chain are known (for example, Patent Document 2, Patent Document 3, Non-Patent Document (See Patent Document 2 and Non-Patent Document 3).

International Publication No. 99/54385 Pamphlet JP 2004-277568 A WO2001-62822 Advanced Materials 1999 Vol. 9 No. 10 798 Advanced Material; 2002, 14 (11), 809-811. J. et al. Polymer Science, Part A; 2005, 43 (3), 859-869.

  When a high molecular compound is used as a light emitting material for a light emitting device, in order to emit light with high characteristics, the positive charge (hole) and negative charge (electron) injection and transport properties of the high molecular compound are good. In addition, it is necessary that the luminous efficiency is good. The above known polymer compound has not yet been sufficiently characterized, and a polymer compound having high charge injecting property, transporting property, and luminous efficiency has been desired.

That is, the present invention provides a repeating unit composed of a divalent heterocyclic group, a divalent condensed polycyclic hydrocarbon group not containing a 5-membered ring, a group represented by the following formula (1), or a divalent aromatic amine group. As a light-emitting or charge-transporting polymer compound having a functional side chain having at least one functional group selected from the group consisting of a hole-injecting and transporting group, an electron-injecting and transporting group, and a light-emitting group The functional group is directly bonded to the saturated carbon of the repeating unit, or —R _J —X— (R _J represents an alkylene group which may be substituted. X is a direct bond, oxygen And represents a sulfur atom, C═O, C (═O) —O, S═O, SiR ⁸ R ⁹ , NR ¹⁰ , BR ¹¹ , PR ¹² , or P (═O) R ¹³ ).

Is to provide.

  The polymer compound of the present invention has the effects of high charge injection and transport properties and high luminous efficiency. When the side chain has a hole injection / transport group, the energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) is increased, the hole injection property and the hole transport property are improved, and the light emission efficiency is increased. When the side chain has an electron injecting and transporting group, the energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) is decreased, the electron injecting property and the electron transporting property are improved, and the light emission efficiency is increased. In the case where the side chain has a light emitting group, it is expected that the light emission efficiency is increased or light is emitted at a wavelength different from the light emission wavelength of the main chain.

When the main chain is an electron transporting polymer compound and the side chain has a hole injecting and transporting group, a new function can be added without hindering the electron transporting property of the main chain. It is possible to adjust the transportability of the product, and high functionality can be expected. In the case where the main chain is an electron transporting polymer compound and the side chain has a light emitting group, light can be emitted at a wavelength different from the wavelength of the main chain. In addition, when a highly efficient light emitting group is used, the light emission efficiency can be improved. In the case where the main chain is an electron transporting polymer compound and the side chain has an electron injecting and transporting group, the electron transporting property of the main chain can be improved.
When the main chain is a hole transporting polymer compound and the side chain has an electron injecting and transporting group, a new function can be imparted without hindering the hole transporting property of the main chain. The hole transportability can be adjusted, and high functionality can be expected. In the case where the main chain is a hole transporting polymer compound and the side chain has a light emitting group, light can be emitted at a wavelength different from the wavelength of the main chain. In addition, when a highly efficient light emitting group is used, the light emission efficiency can be improved. When the main chain is a hole transporting polymer compound and the side chain has a hole injecting and transporting group, the hole transporting property of the main chain can be improved.
When the main chain is a light-emitting polymer compound and the side chain has a hole injecting / transporting group or an electron injecting / transporting material, it is possible to adjust the electron and hole transporting properties, thereby improving the luminous efficiency. Improvement can be expected. When the main chain is a light-emitting polymer compound and has a light-emitting group in the side chain, the color of the polymer compound as a whole can be adjusted by adjusting the emission colors of the main chain and the side chain.
Thus, by separating the functions of the side chain and the main chain, the function can be imparted without impairing the functionality of the main chain, and higher functionality is expected.

The higher the reduction potential (the smaller the absolute value of the reduction potential), the larger the absolute value of the LUMO energy, and the better the electron injection property. When calculating the LUMO energy from the reduction potential, the calculation method differs depending on the type of electrode and solvent used in the CV, so refer to the Electrochemical Handbook 5th edition (2000, Maruzen Publishing Co., Ltd.), depending on the type of electrode and solvent.
