Abstract
A novel NLO compound (E)-1-(5-chlorothiophene-2-yl)-3-(4-dimethylamino) phenyl) prop-2-en-1-one has been synthesized by adopting claisen schmidt condensation reaction method and the single crystals are grown using slow solvent evaporation technique. The FT-IR spectrum confirms the various functional groups present in the compound. The crystal structure was studied by XRD method, which reveals that the compound crystallizes in Monoclinic crystal system with a space group P21/n and the corresponding lattice parameters are a = 7.595 (2) Å, b = 17.441 (4) Å, c = 10.917 (3) Å, α = 90o, β = 102.500 (12)o, γ = 90o. UV-Visible spectrum shows that the crystal is transparent in the entire visible region. Refractive index of the crystal was determined using Brewster’s angle method. Thermal stability of the material was determined from TG/DTA test. The Second harmonic generation efficiency of the crystal was estimated using NLO test and the efficiency was found to be 0.84 times that of UREA.
