Compounds and liquid crystal components using the same, liquid crystal display elements, sensors, liquid crystal lenses, optical communication devices and antennas

Abstract

One aspect of the present invention is to provide a compound that yields a liquid crystal composition with excellent properties such as Tni, Δn, Δεr, tanδiso, and / or storage properties, as well as liquid crystal compositions, liquid crystal display elements, sensors, liquid crystal lenses, optical communication devices, and antennas using the same. For example, the objective is to provide a compound that yields a liquid crystal composition with high Tni, large Δn, large Δεr, low tanδiso, and good storage properties at room temperature, as well as liquid crystal compositions, liquid crystal display elements, sensors, liquid crystal lenses, optical communication devices, and antennas using the same. Specifically, it is a liquid crystal composition containing one or more compounds of general formula (i) having a specific ring structure and isothiocyanate groups (-NCS). none
