Abstract

6-Methoxy naphthaldehyde is prepared by the Grignard reaction of 2-bromo 6-methoxy naphthalene with triethylorthoformate. The formation of the compound is confirmed by recording IR and ¹H NMR spectra. The SHG frequency conversion efficiency of this compound was measured by powder technique using Nd: YAG laser. This compound showed NLO property 0.59 times that of urea. The crystal system is found out by single crystal X-Ray diffraction studies and the crystal system found to be orthorhombic and space group P₂₁₂₁₂₁ with cell parameters : a = 15.657(10) Å, b =16.385(4)Å, c = 7.491(15) Å, α = 90^o, β = 90^o, γ = 90^o. Its bulk crystal of the size 39x 41x14mm³ is grown from acetone solvent by slow evaporation technique.
