Compound, polymerizable liquid crystal composition, polymer and film

Abstract

A compound represented by formula (I) is disclosed. Pand Prepresent a polymerizable group; m1 and m2 represent an integer of from 1 to 10, 'A' represents a divalent group having a 5- to 18-membered aromatic hydrocarbon ring or a 5- to 18-membered aromatic hetero ring, Land Lrepresent a Calkyl group or a Calkoxy group, k1 and k2 represent an integer of from 0 to 4, X, X, Xand Xrepresent —O—, —S—, —NH—, —NR— or —SiRR—, n1 and n2 represent 0 or 1, provided that at least one of them is 1; and L, L, Land Lrepresent a hydrogen atom, halogen atom, —CN, —NC, —NCO, —NCS, or —OCN, provided that those in which both of Xand Xrepresent —O—, those in which one of Xand Xrepresents —O— and another represents —NH— or —NR— are excluded only when n1 is 1, both of Land Lare hydrogen atoms, n2 is 1, and both of Land Lare hydrogen atoms, or only when n1 is 1, both of Land Lare hydrogen atoms, and n2 is 0.
