Semi-organic salts of aniline with inorganic acids: prospective materials for the second harmonic generation

Abstract

Three novel inorganic salts of aniline with sulfuric and selenic acids were prepared and characterized by X-ray structural analysis. Anilinium(1+) selenate, (C6H5NH3+)2SeO42, and anilinium sulfate, (C6H5NH3+)2SO42, crystallize in the monoclinic space groupC2. The crystal structures are based on hydrogen bonded layers of alternating anilinium cations and inorganic anions. Anilinium(1+) selenate dihydrate, (C6H5NH3+)2SeO42−·2H2O, crystallizes in the monoclinic space groupC2/c. The crystal structure is formed by a network of alternating anilinium cations, selenate anions and water molecules connected by a system of intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The FTIR and Raman spectra of all the compounds have been recorded and discussed as well as their crystal structures. According to the DSC curves and temperature dependence of lattice parameters, anilinium sulfate exhibits phase transitions at 217 and 182 K. The appropriate changes of vibrational spectra were also recorded during cooling of the sample especially in the N–H stretching and sulfate antisymmetric stretching (ν3SO42) spectral regions. The quantitative measurements of the second harmonic generation at 1064 nm were performed using powdered samples of anilinium sulfate, anilinium chloride and anilinium selenate, and the relative efficiencies deff = 0.05dKDP, deff = 2.33dKDP and deff = 0.05dKDP (KDP; i.e.KH2PO4) have been observed, respectively.
