Abstract

Un composé représenté par la formule générale (1) est utile en tant qu'hôte et dopant auxiliaire. Chacun des radicaux R1 à R5 représente indépendamment un atome d'hydrogène ou un substituant différent d'un groupement cyano, et au moins l'un des radicaux R1 à R5 représente un groupement représenté par la formule générale (2) ou (3). Chacun des radicaux R11 à R20 et R71 à R79 représente indépendamment un atome d'hydrogène ou un substituant.
