Structural analysis and optoelectronic applications of 2-aminopyrimidine with pimelic acid crystal

Abstract

This study investigates the reaction between 2-aminopyrimidine and pimelic acid, resulting in the formation of a novel crystal. The crystals were obtained through slow evaporation process. These crystals underwent PXRD testing to establish their crystalline properties. The values of the unit cell parameters are confirmed through SXRD analysis. The FTIR technique is applied to detect different functional groups present in the title crystals. The UV-Visible spectrum is recorded to find the band gap energy. From the photoluminescence spectrum the emission is observed at 353nm. The mechanical strength of the material against deformation is studied using Vickers micro hardness tester and the material is stated as soft material. The dielectric behaviour of the crystal is studied using LCRZ meter.
