Abstract
Abstract Novel liquid crystal compounds having a positive dielectric anisotropy and liquid crystal compositions containing the same are provided, which liquid crystal compounds are 2,3-dicyano-5-substituted pyrazines expressed by the general formula ##STR1## wherein n represents 0 or 1; X represents R, ##STR2## in the case of n=0 and R, ##STR3## in the case of n=1; and R represents a linear chain alkyl group or an alkoxy group, each of 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and which liquid crystal compositions, when sealed in a TN cell, make it possible to operate the cell under a low threshold voltage and in a small consumption of electric power.
