<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a polymerizable chiral compound having a strong helical twisting power (HTP), and a low melting point. Ž<P>SOLUTION: The polymerizable chiral compound is represented by general formula (I). The compound has the strong HTP, and a low melting point. Since the compound has excellent solubility in other liquid crystal compounds because of the low melting point thereof, the compound is useful as a constituent member of a liquid crystal composition. Since the content of the polymerizable chiral compound can be increased in a polymerizable liquid crystal composition containing the polymerizable chiral compound as the constituent member, an optical isomer having excellent optical characteristics can be prepared. The optical isomer is useful for applications such as deflection plates or retardation plates. Ž<P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT Ž
