Abstract

Abstract A novel pyridine derivative capable of increasing the dielectric anisotropy value (Δε) or optical anisotropy value (Δn) of liquid crystal compositions including the derivative and lowering the driving voltages of liquid crystal display elements using the composition, and also a liquid crystal composition containing the pyridine derivative are provided, which pyridine derivative is expressed by the formula R--X--COO--Y--CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --Z--A wherein R represents an alkyl group or an alkoxy group each of 1-10 carbon atoms; X represents ##STR1## Y represents ##STR2## when Y is ##STR3## Z represents ##STR4## and A represents F, Cl or cyano group; and when Y is ##STR5## Z represents ##STR6## and A represents an alkyl group or an alkoxy group each of 1-10 carbon atoms.
