[0035] As used herein, the term “spiro compound” has a ‘spiro union’, and the spiro union means a union formed as two rings share only one atom. In this case, the atom shared by the two rings may be referred to as a ‘spiro atom’.

[0048] In the disclosure, the ‘functional group names’ corresponding to the aryl group, arylene group, and heterocyclic group provided as examples of the symbols and their substituents may be described with ‘the names of the functional groups reflecting the valence’, but may also be described with ‘the names of the parent compounds.’ For example, in the case of ‘phenanthrene’, which is a type of aryl group, its name may be specified with its group identified, such as ‘phenanthryl (group)’ for the monovalent group, and ‘phenanthrylene (group)’ as the divalent group, but may also be specified as ‘phenanthrene’, which is the name of the parent compound, regardless of the valence. Similarly, pyrimidine may be specified as ‘pyrimidine’ regardless of the valence or may also be specified as pyrimidinyl (group) for the monovalence and as pyrimidylene (group) for the divalence. Therefore, in the disclosure, when the type of the substituent is specified with the name of the parent compound, it may mean an n-valent ‘group’ formed by detachment of the hydrogen atom bonded to a carbon atom and/or a heteroatom of the parent compound.

[0049] Further, unless explicitly stated, the formulas used in the disclosure may be applied in the same manner as the definition of the substituent by the the following formulas.

##STR00005##

[0050] When a is 0, it means that the substituent R.sub.1 does not exist, meaning that hydrogen is bonded to each of the carbon atoms forming the benzene ring. In this case, the chemical formula or chemical compound may be specified without expressing the hydrogen bonded to the carbon. Further, when a is 1, one substituent R.sub.1 is bonded to any one of the carbon atoms forming the benzene ring, and when a is 2 or 3, it may be bonded as follows. When a is an integer of 4 to 6, it is bonded to the carbon of the benzene ring in a similar manner, and when a is an integer of 2 or more, R.sub.1 may be identical or different.

##STR00006##

[0051] In the disclosure, when substituents are bonded to each other to form a ring, it may mean that adjacent groups are bonded to each other to form a monocycle or fused polycycle, and the monocycle or fused polycycle may include heterocycles containing at least one heteroatom as well as hydrocarbon rings and may include aromatic and non-aromatic rings.

[0166] Referring to Table 2, it may be seen that the organic light emitting element according to embodiments of the disclosure has better efficiency or lifespan than the organic light emitting elements of the comparative examples.

[0167] In comparative example 1, EM2 was used as the light emitting layer host compound. It may be seen that the embodiments using compounds including a core represented by chemical formula 1 have better efficiency and lifespan than comparative example 1.

[0168] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the organic light emitting element of the present disclosure without departing from the technical idea or scope of the disclosure. Thus, it is intended that the present disclosure cover the modifications and variations of this disclosure provided they come within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
