Abstract:

This paper presents the synthesis of novel organic compound (E)-N-(3-(3-(4(dimethylamino)phenyl)acryloyl)phenyl)quinolone-2-carboxamide, also known as Quinolinecarboxamide Chalcone (QCC) using aldol condensation and carboxamide formation method. The organic sample QCC was examined by FT-IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and mass spectroscopic techniques, respectively. Linear and third-order nonlinear optical (TNLO) properties of QCC dissolved in polar solvents such as DMSO, DMF and Ethanol have also been studied. The order of nonlinear refractive index and nonlinear absorption coefficient of QCC was measured to be 10^-11 m²/W and 10^-5 m/W. The nonlinear refractive index (n₂) of QCC was attributed to negative nonlinearity due to self-defocusing effect, and nonlinear absorption coefficient (β) indicates the behaviors of saturable absorption (SA) and reverse saturable absorption (RSA). The real and imaginary features of the TNLO susceptibility (χ⁽³⁾) of QCC in polar solvents were calculated to be the order of 10^─7 esu. The spectral characteristics of solvent on TNLO susceptibility of QCC were discussed. The results divulged that the synthesized organic compound is a novel nonlinear optical (NLO) material for applications in photonics and optoelectronics.

Spectroscopy of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives

Spectroscopy of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives

Infrared spectroscopy is primarily used to determine the types of bonds and functional groups. In carboxylic acid derivatives, a typical carbonyl bond absorption is observed around 1650–1850 cm−1. For esters, the absorption is recorded at around 1740 cm−1, while acid halides show the absorption at about 1800 cm−1. Another acid derivative, the acid anhydrides, exhibit two carbonyl absorption around 1760 cm−1 and 1820 cm−1, arising from the symmetrical and...

IR and UV–Vis Spectroscopy of Carboxylic Acids

IR and UV–Vis Spectroscopy of Carboxylic Acids

In IR spectroscopy of carboxylic acids, the C=O bond shows a characteristic band between 1710 and 1760 cm⁻¹, and the O–H bond exhibits a broad band between 2500 and 3300 cm⁻¹.
However, the stretching absorptions for the C=O bond vary depending on the structure of carboxylic acids. The C=O bond of the free carboxylic acids shows a higher stretching frequency, 1760 cm−1, while H-bonded carboxylic acids (dimers) exhibit stretching absorptions at a lower frequency,...

Variables Affecting Phosphorescence and Fluorescence

Variables Affecting Phosphorescence and Fluorescence

Fluorescence and phosphorescence are essential phenomena in fields like analytical chemistry, biological imaging, and materials science, where they detect molecular properties and visualize cellular structures. Understanding the variables that influence these luminescent behaviors is crucial for maximizing accuracy and efficiency in their applications. These variables can broadly be grouped into chemical structure, solvent properties, and external conditions, each playing a distinct role in...

Aryldiazonium Salts to Azo Dyes: Diazo Coupling

Aryldiazonium Salts to Azo Dyes: Diazo Coupling

The reaction of weakly electrophilic aryldiazonium (also called arenediazonium) salts with highly activated aromatic compounds leads to the formation of products with an —N=N— link, called an azo linkage. This reaction, presented in Figure 1, is known as diazo coupling and occurs without the loss of the nitrogen atoms of the aryldiazonium salt. Highly activated aromatic compounds such as phenols or arylamines favor the diazo coupling reaction. The coupling generally occurs at the...

Structures of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives

Structures of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives

Structure of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
Carboxylic acid derivatives contain an acyl group attached to a heteroatom such as chlorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. The carbonyl carbon and oxygen are both sp2-hybridized with an unhybridized p orbital.
The three sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl carbon form three σ bonds, one each with the carbonyl oxygen, the α carbon, and the heteroatom, whereas the other two sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl oxygen are occupied by the lone pairs. Further, the...

IR and UV–Vis Spectroscopy of Aldehydes and Ketones

IR and UV–Vis Spectroscopy of Aldehydes and Ketones

Infrared spectroscopy, also known as vibrational spectroscopy, is mainly used to determine the types of bonds and functional groups in molecules. In aldehydes and ketones, the carbonyl (C=O) bond shows an absorption around 1710 cm-1. The C=O bond vibration of an aldehyde occurs at lower frequencies than that of a ketone. In addition to the C=O absorption in an aldehyde, the aldehydic C–H bond also gives two peaks in the 2700–2800 cm-1 range. This absorption, coupled with the...
