An organic EL light emitting device having good light emission characteristics and device driving durability is provided. An organic electroluminescent device having at least one organic layer including a light emitting layer between a pair of electrodes, comprising at least one host material (A) having a triphenylene structure, and a light emitting material An organic electroluminescent element comprising at least one of the above and utilizing light emission from a triplet excited state of the luminescent material, wherein the host material (A) is represented by the general formula (1). General formula (1) LT n (In the formula, L represents a single bond or a linking group having a valence of 2 or more, T represents a group containing a triphenylene structure, n represents an integer of 2 or more, and T is the same even if they are different from each other. May be.) [Selection figure] None |
