The present invention relates to a novel liquid crystal compound having positive dielectric anisotropy useful as a component of a liquid crystal composition, and a liquid crystal composition containing the same. Liquid crystal display elements utilize the properties of optical anisotropy and dielectric anisotropy of liquid crystal materials, and their methods include TN type (twisted nematic type), DS type (dynamic scattering type), and guest scattering type. There are host type, DAP type, etc., and each type requires different properties of the liquid crystal material used. However, the liquid crystal material used in either method must be stable against moisture, air, heat, light, etc., and it is further desired that the nematic temperature range be -20 to +80°C or higher. However, at present, there is no single substance that satisfies these conditions, so the current situation is to mix several types of liquid crystal substances and non-liquid crystal substances to suit the purpose. When used in applications where the operating temperature is relatively high, a liquid crystal composition with a high N-I point (nematic clearing point) must be used, but in order to obtain such a liquid crystal, a liquid crystal with a high melting point is required. It is necessary to use many compounds. However, liquid crystal substances with high melting points generally have high viscosity, and therefore the viscosity of the composition also increases. As the viscosity increases, the display speed of the display element slows down, limiting the range of applications. The compound of the present invention relates to a compound that, when added as a component to a liquid crystal composition for such uses, reduces the overall viscosity, and not only does not reduce the various performances of the liquid crystal, but even improves it. be. That is, the present invention is based on the general formula (In the above formula, R represents a linear alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms) Trans-4-alkyl-(4'-chlorophenyl)cyclohexane represented by It is a composition. Since the compound of formula () of the present invention has a low viscosity, by adding it to a liquid crystal composition, the viscosity of the composition is lowered, and therefore the display speed of a display element using it is increased. Moreover, although the dielectric anisotropy Δε of the present compound is as small as about +2, the threshold voltage is also low. In addition, this compound is suitable for heat,
It is stable to light, air, and water, and can be mixed well with other liquid crystals, such as biphenyl-based, phenylcyclohexane-based, and ester-based liquid crystals. Furthermore, since the optical anisotropy value is as small as 0.06, a display element with good viewing angle characteristics can be produced. Next, a method for producing the compound of the present invention will be described. First, 4-chloro-benzene bromide and magnesium metal are reacted to produce 4-chlorobenzene magnesium bromide, which is then reacted with 4-alkylcyclohexanone to produce 4'-alkyl-1'-cyclohexane-1'-ol-4-chlorobenzene. and then dehydrated using acidic potassium sulfate.
4'-alkyl-4'-cyclohexen-1'-yl-
This is converted into 4-chlorobenzene, which is further reduced using a platinum oxide catalyst to obtain the desired trans-4-alkyl-(4'-chlorophenyl)cyclohexane. If the above is expressed as a chemical formula, (R is the same as above) The final formula ()' is a mixture of trans and cis forms, but only the trans form can be separated by recrystallization. The method for producing the compound of the present invention and its properties,
Further, a liquid crystal composition containing the same will be explained in detail with reference to Examples. Example 1 [Production of trans-4-heptyl-(4'-chlorophenyl)cyclohexane] 21 g of p-bromochlorobenzene was added to 2.4 g (0.1 mol) of magnesium pieces in a flask.
(0.1 mol) dissolved in 100 ml of THF (tetrahydrofuran) was heated to 35°C in a nitrogen stream.
Drop it gradually while keeping the amount below. When the magnesium dissolves into a homogeneous solution, it is a solution of 4-chlorophenylmagnesium bromide, ie, a Grignard reagent. To this, quickly add a solution of 0.08 mol of 4-heptylcyclohexanone dissolved in 100 ml of THF at a temperature below 20° C. while cooling sufficiently to avoid generating heat. After keeping at 30℃ for 1 hour, cool with water and gradually add 60ml of 10% sulfuric acid at below 20℃. The oil was extracted with 200 ml of n-heptane, washed with water until the aqueous layer became neutral, and then the n-heptane was distilled off under reduced pressure. The remaining oil is 4'-heptyl-1'-
Cyclohexane-1'-ol-4-chlorobenzene. Add 3.5 g of potassium hydrogen sulfate to this and heat at 250° C. for 2 hours while stirring in a nitrogen stream to dehydrate. After cooling, 200 ml of n-heptane was added to remove the potassium hydrogen sulfate, and the n-heptane layer was washed with water. When n-heptane was distilled off under reduced pressure and the remaining oil was recrystallized with 500 ml of alcohol, 4'-heptyl-
1'-Cyclohexen-1'-yl-4-chlorobenzene () is obtained. The yield of this product is 15g,
The yield is 50% and the melting point is 62.4-64.0°C. Next, dissolve 5.0 g in 20 ml of benzene, add 0.25 g of platinum oxide (PtO 2 ), and boil at normal pressure in a catalytic reduction device at 30 mL.
Hydrogen reduction was carried out at °C. The amount of hydrogen absorbed in 10 hours is
It was 7.9 (0.35 mol). After the reduction is complete, the catalyst is separated, washed with a small amount of ethanol, and the liquid is allowed to cool to form crystals. This is a mixture of the cis and trans forms of 4-heptyl-(4'-chlorophenyl)cyclohexane. This was recrystallized from 150 ml of fresh ethanol to obtain 0.3 g of the desired trans-4-heptyl-(4'-chlorophenyl)cyclohexane (6% yield based on compound ()). This substance has a melting point (C-I
point) is 36.0 to 37.5°C, and the N-I point is 18.3°C, making it a monotropic liquid crystal. Examples 2 to 8 Compounds of the formula ( ) in which R is an alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms were produced in exactly the same manner as in Example 1 by using raw materials having the corresponding alkyl group.
The yield, melting point, etc. are shown in Table 1 together with the results of Example 1.
