Abstract:
Provided are a compound represented by general formula (I), a liquid crystal composition that uses the compound, and a liquid crystal display device that uses the liquid crystal composition. Adding the compound represented by general formula (I) to a liquid crystal composition can prevent degradation of the liquid crystal composition by light, heat, etc. The compound represented by general formula (I) dissolves well in the liquid crystal composition. Thus, when the compound represented by general formula (I) is used, a liquid crystal composition having both low viscosity (η) and high reliability can be prepared, and a high-speed response liquid crystal display device can be provided.

The polymerizable composition prevents precipitation and the like of crystals and has high storage stability. A polymer compound is added to the polymerizable composition. In a case where a film-shaped polymer obtained by polymerizing the polymerizable composition is prepared, a tilt angle formed with an air interface is small, and glances of reflected light when a circularly polarizing plate is obtained by combining the polymer with a polarizing plate are removed. In addition, there is provided a polymer obtained by polymerizing the polymerizable composition, and an optically anisotropic body using the polymer. The polymerizable composition includes a reverse dispersible compound represented by General Formula (I), and a compound represented by General Formula (II).
