A monovalent organic group having a group represented by K i1 in cyclophane (K i1 represents a substituent represented by the following general formula (K-1) to general formula (K-16)) and R 1 (R 1 represents a hydrogen atom, a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 40 carbon atoms, a halogenated alkyl group, or P i1 —Sp i1 —, wherein —CH 2 — in the alkyl group represents -CH = CH-, -C≡C-, -O-, -NH-, -CO-, -COO- or -OCO- may be substituted, but -O- is not continuous) The above-described problems are achieved by a liquid crystal composition containing one or more of the prepared compounds and a liquid crystal display device containing the same. |
