Synthesis, structural characterization and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 4-hydroxyanilinium picrate hydrate M. Manonmani, C. Balakrishnan, SP. Meenakshisundaram and RM. Sockalingam* Department of Chemistry, Annamalai University, Annamalainagar-608 002, Tamilnadu, India
Abstract Structure characterization of single crystals of 4-hydroxyanilinium picrate hydrate (HAPH) by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis shows that the compound C12H12N4O9 crystallizes in monoclinic space group P21/c. The band gap energy is estimated and photoluminescence studies exhibit fluorescent emission. High value of first-order molecular hyperpolarizability (β) estimated by theoretical calculation reveals good nonlinear optical (NLO) character of the material and the behaviour is rationalized. Intra- and intermolecular interactions are quantified by Hirshfeld surface analysis derived from single crystal XRD data.

1. Introduction Picric acid forms picrates with organic molecules through π- bonding or ionic bonding interactions. The conjugated base picrate thus formed has enhanced molecular hyperpolarizability because of the proton transfer of phenolic hydroxyl group. The bonding of these picrate complexes depends on the nature of the hydrogen bonding and electron donor–acceptor system [1]. Crystal structures of anilinium picrate [2], 2-chloroanilinium picrate [3], 3-bromoanilinium picrate [4], 3-chloro-4-fluoroanilinium picrate[5], o-toluidinium picrate [6], m-toluidinium picrate [7],N-methyl anilinium picrate, o-phenylenediamine picrate, m-phenylenediamine picrate, p-phenylenediamine picrate [8], N,N-dimethyl anilinium picrate [9], N,N-diethyl anilinium picrate [10] have been reported. Recently we have investigated growth and characterization of 4-aminobenzophenonium picrate [11], 4-amino pyridinium picrate [12], 2-amino-5-nitrobenzophenonium picrate [13], ammonium picrate [14] and p-toludinium picrate [15] crystals. In the present work, we report the structural characterization and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 4-hydroxyanilinium picrate hydrate. Computational studies were used to investigate density of states, polarizability and first-order molecular hyperpolarizability. Molecular interactions are quantified by finger print plots derived from Hirshfeld surfaces. 2.0 Experimental 2.1 Synthesis HAPH was obtained using equimolar quantities of picric acid and acetaminophen in aqueous medium, stirred for 5 h and HAPH formed as a yellow precipitate. Crystallization took place in 14-16 d in ethanol medium and the crystals were collected. Optical image of the HAPH crystal is indicated in Fig. 1.

2.2 Characterization techniques Philips Xpert pro triple-axis X-ray diffractometer was used for recording powder XRD (wavelength of 1.540˚A). A Bruker AXS (Kappa Apex II) X-ray diffractometer was used for single crystal XRD studies. The UV–diffuse reflectance spectrum was analysed using Shimadzu UV2600 UV-Visible spectrophotometer. Photoluminescence spectrum was recorded by HJY:Fluorolg F3-111 spectrometer. Thermo gravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA) were carried out using a NETZSCH STA 449 F3 instrument.

3.0 Results and discussion 3.1 XRD analysis Simulated and experimental powder XRD patterns show the phase purity (Fig. 2). Simulated XRD patterns derived from Mercury 3.6 program. The 4-hydroxyanilinium picrate hydrate crystallizes in the monoclinic system with centrosymmetric space group P21/c. An ORTEP view and the unit cell are displayed in Fig. 3. As can be seen in Fig. 3(a), the proton of the –OH group of picric acid was transferred to the nitrogen atom in the 4-hydroxy aniline molecule, forming an N(4)-H(4A)….O(7) hydrogen bond with the distance 1.941(15) Å. The C(6)-O(7) and C(7)-O(8) bond distances are 1.266(19) and 1.372(2) Å respectively. Picrate C-O bond length is shorter than the 4hydroxyanilinium C-O bond length. The crystal data and structure refinement parameters are listed in Table 1. Crystal systems and space groups of some substituted anilinium and amine picrates are shown in Table 2 and it is observed that most of the picrates crystallize with centrosymmetric triclinic/ monoclinic space group. The -OH group hydrogen atom of the 4-hydroxyanilinium interacts with the oxygen atom of the solvent water molecule and bond distance O(8)-O(9) is 2.7058(17) Å (H(8A)….O(9) 1.90 A˚).

The packing projections are indicated in Fig. 4. The molecular crystal packing along the a- axis with the C-H….O interaction produces the sandwich type of architecture (Fig. 4(a)). Crystal packing along the b and c- axes with the N-H….O and O-H….O interactions are shown as Fig. 4(b, c). The strong and weak H- bonding interactions are listed in Table 3. Weak intermolecular hydrogen bond with a bond, C(12)—H(12)….O(6) distance of 3.504(2) Å, and strong intermolecular interaction, O(9)-H(9B)….O(7) with a bond distance of 2.6955(18) Å are observed. The interactions between chains are van der Waals interaction. a

3.2 Hirshfeld surface analysis
CrystalExplorer (Version 3.1) program was used for analysing the Hirshfeld surface [16-18] using single crystal XRD data Fig. 5. A clear separation of the electropositive and electronegative regions was observed. 2D-Finger print plots [19] are used for quantification of molecular interactions as illustrated in Fig. 6. The O….H and H….O short interactions with 45.7% of the area of Hirshfeld surface marked as red and blue in 2D fingerprint plots. The H….O interactions are represented as spikes in upper left area and right side represents O…H interactions. Strong interactions (H….H, O….H, and H…O) and weak interactions (C….C, C….H, C….N, N….C, H….C, N….H, H….N, N….N, N….O, O….C,C….O, O….N and O….O) are quantified in the pie chart in (Fig. 7). It appears that the major interactions particularly H….O, O….H are mainly accountable for charge transfer leading to nonlinearity at microlevel.

3.3 Optical studies
The cut-off wave length is observed at ~ 434 nm. Kubelka-Munk equation [20] correlating reflectance and concentration, F(R) = (1-R)2 / 2R =Ac / s the estimation of the direct band-gap energy of the specimen as 2.70 eV, from the Tauc plot (Fig. 8). The HAPH and picric acid exhibit fluorescent emission at λmax 468 nm (~2.65 eV) in the solid state at 30 ᵒC (Fig. 9).

3.4 TG/DTA studies
TG and DTA studies have been carried out simultaneously under nitrogen atmosphere at heating at rate of 20 K min1 in the temperature range 30 – 500°C. The first step in TG curve (Fig. 10) occurs in the range 87–110 °C, attributed to the removal of water molecule. The observed weight loss is 4.43% and the calculated value is 5.06 %. The second stage weight loss starts at 202 °C, corresponding to the decomposition of product. The DTA curve shows two endothermic peaks appearing at 108 and 204°C.

3.5 First-order molecular hyperpolarizability
First-order molecular hyperpolarizability (β) was calculated by the GAUSSIAN 09W [21] program using density functional theory (DFT) B3LYP method with 6-311G (d,p) as the basis set. Calculated β of the specimen is 12.3431 x 10-30 esu ( ̴ 63.4 times of urea) (Table 4). Microlevel nonlinearity is associated with charge transfer. Weak and strong hydrogen bonding interactions play a major role for the good NLO response and also responsible for crystal cohesion. Nonlinearity is not sustained at macrolevel because charge transfer gets cancelled because of centrosymmetric crystallization. Table 4.

4. Conclusion The charge transfer complex 4-hydroxyanilinium picrate hydrate was synthesized and the single crystals were successfully grown. It belongs to the monoclinic system with centrosymmetric space group P21/c. The band gap energy of picrate estimated from the optical transmittance spectrum is 2.70 eV. The decomposition temperature and percentage weight loss of the material at different stages were found out from thermal analysis. High NLO response at the molecular level is attributed to strong intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions quantified by finger print plots.
