Abstract

Abstract A liquid crystalline compound represented by formula wherein R denotes an alkyl or alkoxy group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, m and n are each 0 or 1, provided m and n are not 1 at the same time. X and Y each denote a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom or a nitro group, provided X and Y are not hydrogen atoms at the same time, and Q * denotes an optically active group having an asymmetric carbon atom and a linear or cyclic alkyl or alkenyl group which may be substituted by a halogen atom, or the like.
