The present invention relates to a novel liquid crystal compound having negative dielectric anisotropy and a liquid crystal composition containing the same. Liquid crystal display elements utilize the optical anisotropy and dielectric foreign material properties of liquid crystal materials, and depending on the display format, there are TN type (twisted nematic type), DS type (dynamic scattering type), and guest/host type. There are various types, such as type and DAP type, and the properties of the liquid crystal materials suitable for each type of use are different. However, all liquid crystal materials have in common that they need to be stable against moisture, electricity, heat, light, etc., and they are also required to exhibit a liquid crystal phase over as wide a temperature range as possible, centered around room temperature. ing. However, at present, there is no single compound that satisfies these conditions, and the current situation is to use liquid crystal compositions obtained by mixing several types of liquid crystal compounds and non-liquid crystal compounds. Recently, guest-host type liquid crystal display devices, which are one type of color liquid crystal display method, have been attracting attention. This uses a mixture of liquid crystal and dye, but liquid crystal with negative dielectric anisotropy is used for positive guest-host type display elements. Therefore, there is a need for liquid crystal compounds having various properties, good compatibility, and negative dielectric anisotropy as constituent components of the liquid crystal. An object of the present invention is to provide a novel liquid crystal compound suitable for such uses. That is, the present invention is based on the general formula (In the above formula, X is R,

(1) Production of 2-cyano-4-chlorophenol 20 g of 5-chlorosalicylaldehyde oxime
Dissolve in 100 ml of acetic anhydride and reflux for 10 hours.
After the reaction, acetic anhydride is distilled off under reduced pressure. Add 20 g of potassium hydroxide dissolved in 100 ml of water and 100 ml of ethanol to the remaining oil and heat at 80°C for 5 hours. When the mixture is brought to room temperature and completely acidified with 6NHCl, crystals will precipitate. The crystals are filtered and dried. mp.164-168°C, yield 14g. This was used as it was in the next reaction. (2) Esterification 1.5 g of 2-cyano-4-chlorophenol is dissolved in 30 ml of pyridine, and 2.4 g of 4-(trans-4-propylcyclohexyl)benzoic acid chloride is added to this while stirring well.
After the reaction, leave it overnight and add 200ml of toluene.
Pour into water. Separate the toluene layer and add 6N hydrochloric acid,
Wash with 2N sodium hydroxide solution and then with water.
Finally, dry with anhydrous sodium sulfate. When toluene is distilled off under reduced pressure, a crystalline substance remains, which is recrystallized with ethanol to obtain the target product, 4-
2.1 g of (trans-4-propylcyclohexyl)benzoic acid-2-cyano-4-chlorophenyl ester was obtained. Yield 55%. The C-N point of this product is 112.6-113.6℃, and the N-I point is 127.3℃.
It was hot. Examples 2 to 16 Target compounds were produced in the same manner as in Example 1, using the corresponding carboxylic acid chlorides in place of 4-(trans-4-propylcyclohexyl)benzoic acid chloride. These results are shown in Table 1 together with the results of Example 1.

It is. This mixture was added with commercially available dye G-
A guest-host cell was created by filling a cell with 1% 224 added, and its threshold voltage was measured to be 3.80V. Next, 10 parts of 4-pentylbiphenyl-4'-carboxylic acid-2-cyano-4-chlorophenyl ester and 4-heptylbiphenylyl-4'-carboxylic acid-2-cyano- A liquid crystal composition was prepared by mixing 10 parts of 4-chlorophenyl ester with 80 parts of the above FN-45. Its N-I point is 71℃, △ε is -4.0, and the viscosity at 20℃ is 29cp.
Then, when we created a guest-host type liquid crystal cell by adding 1% of the dye G-224 as before and measured its threshold voltage, we found that it dropped significantly to 3.30V.
