Light-Emitting Device, Light-Emitting Apparatus, Electronic Device, and Lighting Device

A light-emitting device includes a light-emitting layer containing a light-emitting substance and a first organic compound. The light-emitting substance is an organometallic complex containing a central metal and ligands. One of the ligands includes a skeleton formed by a ring A1 and a pyridine ring bonded to each other. The ring A1 represents an aromatic ring or a heteroaromatic ring. The pyridine ring includes an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms and being substituted with deuterium. The first organic compound includes an electron-transport skeleton and first and second substituents that are bonded to the electron-transport skeleton. The electron-transport skeleton includes a heteroaromatic ring having two or more nitrogen atoms. The first substituent includes one or both of an aromatic ring and a heteroaromatic ring. The second substituent includes a skeleton having a hole-transport property. The lowest triplet excited state of the first organic compound is locally distributed in the first substituent.
