Abstract

Abstract Six-membered ring compounds of the formula I ##STR1## wherein A is a benzene or cyclohexane ring, X 1 to X 6 independently of one another in each case are H, --OR, --COOR, --SR, --SOR, --SO 2 R or, if A is a cyclohexane ring, also --O--COR, and R is in each case an alkyl group which has up to 15 C atoms and in which one or two CH 2 groups can be replaced by O atoms, at least three of the substituents X 1 to X 6 being other than H, can be used as constituents of discotic liquid-crystal phases for liquid-crystal display elements.
