To improve power efficiency of a light-emitting element for white emission even when light in a wavelength range of low luminosity is utilized. As a light-emitting element for white emission, three light-emitting layers are stacked. In such a light-emitting element, the three light-emitting layers are included between a light-transmitting electrode and a light-reflecting electrode, and light emitted from each light-emitting layer is reflected on the light-reflecting electrode and is transmitted through the light-transmitting electrode. In addition, the light-emitting layer closer to the light-reflecting electrode has a shorter optical path length. Thus, the position of each light-emitting layer is limited depending on the distance from the light-reflective electrode, and the optical path length of each light-emitting layer is adjusted; therefore the light-emitting element with high power efficiency can be provided.
Provided is a novel substance that can emit phosphorescence. Alternatively, provided is a novel substance with high emission efficiency. An organometallic complex in which a 4-arylpyrimidine derivative is a ligand and iridium is a central metal is provided. Specifically, an organometallic complex having a structure represented by a general formula (G1) is provided. In the general formula (G1), R1 represents a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group having 6 to 10 carbon atoms, R2 represents any of hydrogen, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group, R3 represents hydrogen or a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and Ar1 represents a substituted or unsubstituted arylene group having 6 to 10 carbon atoms.
