This invention provides a polymerizable liquid crystal compound having a large value of An/n, excellent in coating properties on an alignment film and easily aligned. Disclosed is a polymerizable liquid crystal compound having at least one polymerizable reactive group and showing nematic liquid crystal properties, having a Δn/n value of 0.14 or more wherein n is average refractive index and Δn is extraordinary light refractive index (ne) minus ordinary light refractive index (no), and being aligned by application onto an alignment film. |
