| | (WO/2000/010952) DECAHYDRONAPHTHALENE DERIVATIVE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) |
 | | A decahydronaphthalene derivative represented by general formula (I), a liquid-crystal composition containing the derivative; and a liquid-crystal element containing the composition. |
 | | The decahydronaphthalene derivative, which is a novel compound, can be extremely easily produced even on an industrial scale as shown in Examples. |
 | | When added to a base liquid crystal in a small amount, the derivative not only widens the nematic-phase temperature range but can improve various properties of the liquid-crystal material. |
