The present invention relates to a novel liquid crystal material exhibiting positive dielectric anisotropy and a liquid crystal composition containing the same. Liquid crystal display elements utilize optical anisotropy and dielectric anisotropy, which are characteristics of liquid crystal materials. There are various types of liquid crystal display elements, such as TN (twisted nematic) type, DS (dynamic scattering) type, guest-host type, and DAP type.
The properties required for the liquid crystal materials used are different. However, in either method, the liquid crystal material is exposed to moisture, heat,
It is necessary to be stable in air and the like, and it is desirable to use a substance that exhibits a liquid crystal phase over as wide a temperature range as possible. However, at present, there is no single compound that satisfies these conditions, and the current situation is to use a mixture of several types of liquid crystal compounds and non-liquid crystal compounds. When mixing liquid crystal compounds, in general, if you mix positive and negative dielectric anisotropy values △ε, you can obtain △ε with an intermediate value, but △
Materials with large absolute values of positive and negative ε have poor compatibility and are difficult to mix, subject to mixing restrictions. Therefore, those having a smaller absolute value of Δε are more suitable for preparing various liquid crystal compositions. The compound of the present invention is a compound useful for preparing various liquid crystal compositions having a small value of Δε of about +2. That is, the present invention is based on the general formula (In the above formula, R represents an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms) trans-4-(trans-4'-substituted cyclohexyl)-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid
3''-cyanophenyl ester and a liquid crystal composition containing at least one component thereof. The compound of the present invention can be obtained by the following steps. That is, trans-4-(trans-4'-substituted cyclohexyl)-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid is reacted with thionyl chloride to form an acid chloride, and this is reacted with 3-cyanophenol in pyridine to form the desired trans-4-( Trans-4'-substituted cyclohexyl)-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid 3''-cyanophenyl ester is obtained. The present invention will be explained in more detail by showing production examples and application examples of the compounds of the present invention as examples below. Example 1 [Production of trans-4-(trans-4'-propylcyclohexyl)-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid 3''-cyanophenyl ester] 5 g of trans-4-(trans-4'-propylcyclohexyl)-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid
Add 10 ml of thionyl chloride to (0.02 mol) and heat to homogenize in about 1 hour. After further heating for about 1 hour, excess thionyl chloride was distilled off under reduced pressure, and what remained was trans-4-(trans-4'-propylcyclohexyl)-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid chloride. On the other hand, 2.2g of 3-cyanophenol
(0.02 mol) dissolved in 10 ml of pyridine, add the acid chloride mentioned above, stir well, and
Leave it overnight. Add 100 ml of toluene to it, wash the toluene layer with 6N hydrochloric acid in a separator, then with 2N caustic soda solution, and finally with water until neutral, dry over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and then distill off the toluene under reduced pressure. . Recrystallize the remaining crystals with 50ml of ethanol to obtain the desired trans-4-(trans-
4.5g of 4′-propylcyclohexyl)-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid 3″-cyanophenyl ester
Obtained. Table 1 shows the phase transition point, elemental analysis values, etc.
