• wherein in Formula (1),
• R1 is hydrogen, halogen, or alkyl having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, wherein, in the alkyl, at least one —CH2— may be substituted with —O— or —S—, at least one —(CH2)2— may be substituted with —CH═CH— or —C≡C—, wherein at least one hydrogen in the alkyl may be substituted with halogen;
• L1, L2, L3, and L4 are hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, methyl, or ethyl;
• Y1 and Y2 are hydrogen, fluorine, or chlorine;
• and
• n is 0 or 1,
• with the proviso that when n is 0, L1, L2, L3, and L4 are not selected such that any two of L1, L2, L3, and L4 are methyl and the remaining two are hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, or ethyl.
