Disclosed is an organic electroluminescent element (organic EL element) and a compound for organic EL elements used therein, with which the luminous efficiency of the element is improved, sufficient drive stability is ensured, and the structure is simple. The organic EL element is an organic electroluminescent element that has a luminescent layer between a cathode and an anode, which are laminated on a substrate, which luminescent layer contains a phospholuminescent dopant and an indolocarbazole derivative as a host material. The compound represented by formula (3) below is an example of an indolocarbazole compound. Here, Ar represents an aromatic group and L represents a direct bond or an aromatic group. |
