There is described a liquid crystalline mixture for electro-optical devices which are operated according to the two-frequency matrix addressing procedure. The mixture consists of three components A, B and C, each of which contains one or more compounds. Component A has a viscosity of at most about 40 cp, a clearing point of at least about 40° C. and a dielectric anisotropy between about -2 and about +1. Component B has a dielectric anisotropy below about -2 and component C has a dielectric anisotropy above about +10, a clearing point of at least about 100° C. and there is a cross-over frequency in the total mixture of at most about 15 kHz at 20° C. Novel compounds for such mixtures and their manufacture and use are also described. The novel mixtures make possible especially high multiplex rates and short response times.
