Patent ID: 8431252

Claim:
A light-emitting device comprising: a first electrode; a second electrode; and a layer comprising an anthracene derivative represented by General Formula (1), the layer being between the first electrode and the second electrode, wherein: each of Ar 1 and Ar 2 represents an aryl group having 6 to 25 carbon atoms, and A is selected from General Formulae (1-1) to (1-3): each of Ar 11 to Ar 13 represents an aryl group having 6 to 25 carbon atoms; α represents an arylene group having 6 to 25 carbon atoms; Ar 21 represents an aryl group having 6 to 25 carbon atoms; R 31 represents any of hydrogen, an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and an aryl group having 6 to 25 carbon atoms; R 32 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or an aryl group having 6 to 25 carbon atoms; Ar 31 represents an aryl group having 6 to 25 carbon atoms; β represents an arylene group having 6 to 25 carbon atoms; and each of R 41 and R 42 represents any of hydrogen, an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and an aryl group having 6 to 25 carbon atoms, wherein the layer is selected from a light-emitting layer, a hole transporting layer, and a hole injection layer.
