Synthesis, FT-IR, Bandgap Offset, Polarizability and Hyperpolarizability of 3,4-diamino-6-ehtyl-6H-pyrano[3,2-c]quinoline-2,5-dione (DAPQ) and Cu-2DAPQ as a Promising Organometallic Material: Experimental and Theoretical Studies

Abstract

In our research, a comparative experimental and computational IR spectra of DAPQ have performed utilizing B3LYP/6-311G level. DAPQ hold over total dipole moment (TDM) (5.18 Debye), and HOMO/LUMO offset (3.76 eV). A theoretical model has been established to inspect the interaction between Cu+4 and N atoms associated with (-NH2)2 terminals of DAPQ. TDM for Cu-2DAPQ has been improved by 70.38% (17.49 Debye). Also, Cu-2DAPQ spin became doublet, which gives rise to the band splitting into Alpha and Beta MOs with energies 2.58 and 1.31 eV, respectively. Moreover, Cu-2DAPQ hyperpolarizability (βtot) is 200 times larger over urea (ref. βurea = 0.3728 x10-30 esu). Eventually, the non-linear optical response has been improved by 94.53%. Such outstanding improvement nominates Cu-2DAPQ as a promising MOF material for both Photovoltaic and non-linear optics applications.
