Two novel complexes, namely [Cd(L)(NO3)2]n (1) and {[Cd(L)(NO3)2](CH3CH2OH)}n (2) (L = 1,3,5-tris[1-(4-oxidroxypyridinium-methylene)]benzene) are synthesized solvothermally in different solvents. Single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetry, 2D fingerprint plots, and Hirshfeld surface analyses are carried out for these complexes and their topology and thermal stability are also analyzed. Two complexes exhibit the same 2D interpenetrating structure formed by the ligand coordinated with Cd(II) ions. Due to the presence of ethanol molecules in complex 2, part of π⋯π stacking in complex 1 is blocked, resulting in new C—H⋯π and hydrogen bonding. This change makes the weak force stronger and forms a more stable framework. The result is that the thermal stability of 2 is higher than that of 1.

Benzene-1,2,4,5-tetrol

June 2024 · IUCrData

The crystal structure of the title compound was determined at 120 K. It crystallizes in the triclinic space group P \overline{1} with four independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal, each symmetry-unique molecule forms π–π stacks on itself, giving four unique π–π stacking interactions. Intermolecular hydrogen bonding is observed between each pair of independent molecules, where ... [Show full abstract] each hydroxy group can act as a hydrogen-bond donor and acceptor.

The single crystal of l-valine methyl ester hydrochloride for optoelectronic applications has been synthesized using the slow evaporation method at room temperature. The single X-ray diffraction studies confirmed that the crystal has been identified as belonging to the orthorhombic crystal system with the P212121 space group. The FTIR study of the material elucidates the molecular vibrations and ... [Show full abstract] confirms the presence of functional groups in LVMEH. The optical studies investigated and the cut-off wavelength at 360 nm reveal that the complete transparency in the whole visible region and wide bandgap of 3.44 eV are sufficient to act as material for optoelectronic devices. The thermal stability of the material was found to be at 173 °C, and the material hardness was assessed to be up to 100 g. In addition to that, the thermal stability and mechanical hardness were also calculated and found to be sufficient for optoelectronic device fabrication. The second-order nonlinear optical efficiency is calculated to be 1.1 times that of KDP. The material’s optical, thermal, and nonlinear optical characteristics enable us to utilize it in applications such as photo detectors, LEDs, and optical modulator devices that require long-term performance in various conditions.

June 2024 · Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Electronics

Third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) materials have proven to be beneficial for a wide range of applications. Therefore, a novel third-order nonlinear organic single-crystal 4-Dimethylaminobenzaldehyde 2,4-dinitrophenol (DMBDN) is successfully grown adapting slow evaporation method with good optical characteristics and thermal stability. The crystal structure and lattice parameters of the grown ...

The fundamental vibrational frequencies of particular functional groups present in the titled compound are confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum. Using ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) spectral analysis, the generated crystal's optical quality is determined. From the Tauc plot, it is calculated that the optical bandgap is 2.04 eV. Sharp emission peaks are seen in the photoluminescence spectrum, which imply violet and blue emission. From thermogravimetric (TG) and differential thermal analyses (DTA), it is found that the crystal possesses a thermal stability of 125.90 °C. The percentage of hydrogen-bonding interactions is assessed using Hirshfeld surface fingerprint plots. The third-order nonlinear optical characteristics such as susceptibility (χ⁽³⁾) and absorption coefficient (β) of the compound are examined using the conventional Z-scan method with a nanosecond pulsed Nd:YAG laser.
