摘要

A liquid crystal composition comprising at least one liquid crystal compound and at least one anthraquinone compound represented by formula (1) below: Formula (1) (wherein R<2 >to R<8 >each independently represents a hydrogen or substituent; Het is a sulfur or oxygen; B<1 >and B<2 >each independently represents an optionally substituted arylene, heteroarylene, cycloalkan-diyl or cycloalken-diyl; Q<1 >is a bivalent linking group; C<1 >is an optionally substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkoxy, alkokycarbonyl or acyloxy; p, q and r each represents a number from 0 to 5 and n is a number from 1 to 3 satisfying 3<=(p+r)xn<=10; when plural {(B<1>)p-(Q<1>)q-(B<2>)r} are present, these may be the same or different) was disclosed.
