An organic EL element that emits light with high efficiency and is driven at a lower driving voltage is provided. An organic EL device in which an electron transport zone includes an aromatic heterocyclic derivative represented by the general formula (1). A in the general formula (1) is represented by the general formula (2). HAr in the general formula (2) is represented by the general formula (3). X1 to X3 are a nitrogen atom or CR1, and Y1 is an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom, or the like. [Selection] Figure 1 |
