An organic EL device with high brightness and long lifetime, which is capable of driving at low voltage, is provided. As the material for constituting the organic EL device, a specific styryl amino group-containing diphenyl aminoarylene represented by the following general formula [1] (wherein Ar1 is a substituted or unsubstituted arylene group having 5-42 carbons, Ar2 to Ar5 each independently represents substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C20 aryl groups, at least one of which is a styrylphenyl group represented by the following general formula [2]) is used in a light-emitting zone adjacent to an anode.
