Abstract

NEW MATERIAL:A compound expressed by formula I (R is 2-8C straight-chain alkyl; R' is 1-20C straight-chain alkyl or straight-chain alkoxy; n is 0 or 1; C* is asymmetric carbon). EXAMPLE:A compound expressed by formula II. USE:A compound, useful as an electrooptical display material, capable of reducing the temperature dependence of threshold voltage of various nematic liquid crystal compositions by adding a small amount of the compound thereto and consequently effective in preparing liquid crystal materials capable of effectively preventing the occurrence of crosstalk phenomenon caused by a change in environmental temperature in high time-division driving. PREPARATION:An (S)-(t)-1-methylalkyl-p-toluenesulfonate expressed by formula III is reacted with a phenolic derivative expressed by formula IV in the presence of a base on a solvent, e.g. ethanol.
