EXAMPLE:S-(+)-4-(2-Methylbutyl)biphenyl-4'-carboxylic acid 2-allyl-4-(5-ethyl-2- pyrimidinyl)phenyl ester. USE:A component for liquid crystal composition having helical structure, stable to light, heat, water content, air, etc., exhibiting liquid crystal phase in temperature range containing ambient temperature, capable of preventing occurrence of reverse domain by blending with a twist nematic type display element, and effective to make K3/K1 large and minimize K2/K1 and epsilon/#2 in a supertwist type display system. PREPARATION:A compound expressed by formula II is boiled and refluxed to afford a compound expressed by formula III, which is then reacted with an optically active benzoic acid chloride expressed by formula IV in the presence of pyridine to provide the optically active compound expressed by formula I.
