According to the invention, a polymerizable compound, a polymerizable composition, and a polymer that have a low melting point at a practical level, exhibit excellent solubility in a general-purpose solvent, can be produced at low cost, and can produce an optical film that exhibits excellent transparency, and achieves uniform conversion of polarized light over a wide wavelength band, and an optically anisotropic article can be provided. In formula (I), Y 1 to Y 8 are, -O-, -O-C(=O)-, -C(=O)-O-, etc., G 1 and G 2 are a divalent linear aliphatic group of 1-20 carbon atoms, Z 1 and Z 2 are an alkenyl group of 2-10 carbon atoms that is substituted with a halogen atom, or unsubstituted, A x is an organic group of 2-30 carbon atoms that includes at least one aromatic ring, A y is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group of 1-20 carbon atoms, etc., A 1 is a trivalent aromatic group, A 2 and A 3 are a substituted or unsubstituted divalent alicyclic hydrocarbon group of 3-30 carbon atoms, A 4 and A 5 are a divalent aromatic group of 6-30 carbon atoms, and Q 1 is a hydrogen atom, or an alkyl group of 1-6 carbon atoms. |
