Provided are a liquid-crystal compound and a liquid-crystal composition containing the compound, of which the advantages are that they show nematic hybrid orientation on a rubbed TAC substrate, they are polymerizable in open air and they readily give a polymer having a high degree of polymerization even when exposed to a relatively small total quantity of light. The films formed by photopolymerizing them keep nematic hybrid orientation. The compound is represented by formula (1):
wherein R
1
is a hydrogen or an alkyl; R
2
is a hydrogen, —OCF
3
, etc.; A
1
is a 1,4-phenylene, etc.; A
2
and A
3
are independently a 1,4-cyclohexylene, a 1,4-phenylene, etc.; X
1
is a single bond, —O—, etc.; X
2
and X
3
are independently a single bond, —COO—, —C≡C—, —CONH—, etc.; m is an integer of from 0 to 20; and n is 1 or 0.
提供了一种液晶化合物和含有该化合物的液晶组合物,其优点是它们在擦拭的TAC基板上显示出向列杂向,它们可以在空气中聚合,并且即使暴露在相对较小的总光量下,它们也能很容易地形成高度聚合的聚合物。通过光聚合它们形成的薄膜保持向列杂向。该化合物由式(1)表示:其中R1为氢或烷基;R2为氢,—OCF3等;A1为1,4-苯撑等;A2和A3独立地为1,4-环己撑,1,4-苯撑等;X1为单键,—O—等;X2和X3独立地为单键,—COO—,—C≡C—,—CONH—等;m为0至20的整数;n为1或0。
