Abstract
AbstractSingle crystals of L‐histidinium tetrafluoroborate (L‐HFB) were grown by slow evaporation of an aqueous solution at room temperature. The crystal structure has been elucidated through single crystal X‐ray crystallography. The infrared (IR) and Raman spectroscopic measurements fully confirm the X‐ray crystal structure. The potential role of hydrogen bonds of the title crystal and its influence on interaction between the L‐histidinium cation and tetrafluoroborate anion has been discussed in detail. The crystal is a very good second harmonic generator. Its powder SHG efficiency is calculated as deff = 1.70 deff (KDP). (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
