Abstract
A polymerizable liquid crystal compound that has a wide liquid crystal phase temperature range and has a sterol ferulate skeleton, and a liquid crystal composition containing the compound are provided. A polymer that is excellent in various characteristics, and a molded article having optical anisotropy produced with the polymer are obtained with the polymerizable liquid crystal compound. The compound is represented by formula (1): wherein R represents a sterol moiety derived from vegetable organisms; P represents one of polymerizable groups represented by formulae (P1) to (P8); X, Z, Xand Zeach represent a bonding group; and A represents a divalent group having a cyclic structure.
