To provide a charge-injection and -transport material which can give an organic electroluminescent element having high luminous intensity, high luminous efficiency and excellent durability.

The charge-injection and -transport material contains a compound of formula (1) (wherein R1 and R2 are each H, a 1-18C alkyl group or an aryl group), a polystyrenesulfonic acid, and a compound of formula (2) or formula (3) {wherein R3 to R6 are each H, an alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted amino group, an aryl group or a heterocyclic group; X is C-R (wherein R is H, a phenyl group, a vinyl group or an alkyl group) or a nitrogen atom; R7 to R10 are each H, a carboxy group, an alkyl group, a vinyl group, an aryl group or a heterocyclic group}.
