The objective of this invention is to provide a compound capable of forming a color filter with excellent brightness. This objective is achieved by a compound represented by formula (I). [In formula (I), T...] 1 and T 2 Independently representing
divalent aromatic hydrocarbon groups that may have substituents or
divalent aromatic heterocyclic groups that may have substituents, L 1 This refers to an α-valent
aliphatic hydrocarbon group with 1 to 12 carbon atoms that may have substituents, or a group represented by formula (i), wherein at least one
methylene group contained in the
aliphatic hydrocarbon group is substituted with -O-, and α represents an integer of 2 or more. [In formula (i), T] 3 L represents an α-valent
aromatic hydrocarbon group that may have substituents or an α-valent aromatic heterocyclic group that may have substituents. 2 This refers to a
divalent aliphatic hydrocarbon group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms that may have substituents, wherein at least one of the
methylene groups is substituted with -O-.
