The present invention discloses a 9,10-dihydro-acridine derivative having a structure of Formula (I). The compound has a suitable HOMO energy level that matches that of an anode and light emitting layer when used as a material of a hole transport layer, thus reducing the potential barrier needed to overcome when holes are transported to the light emitting layer, and reducing the operating voltage of the device. Moreover, the 9,10-dihydro-acridine derivative has high triplet energy level and LUMO level, to avoid the returning of energy from the light emitting layer, retain the electrons in the light emitting layer, increase the probability of recombination of electrons and holes in the light emitting layer, and enhance the luminescence efficiency of the device. The compound of Formula (I) has high glass transition temperature, good film forming performance, and high thermal stability. The present invention further discloses an organic light-emitting device having at least one functional layer containing the 9,10-dihydro-acridine derivative. When the compound is used as a material of the hole transport layer, a light-emitting device of high luminescence efficiency and low driving voltage is obtained.
