Abstract
A smectic liquid-crystal mixture containing rod-shaped molecules having only one side chain and certain phenylpyrimidine derivatives. The liquid-crystal mixtures according to the invention are distinguished by a low melting point and a high S.sub.C /S.sub.A phase-transition temperature. The use of bisesters of the formula I allows the number of phenylpyrimidine derivatives in the mixtures according to the invention to be significantly reduced. Ferroelectric mixtures according to the invention have, in particular, high contrast, good alignment, a large margin, low flicker and a large angle in the chevron geometry.
