Abstract
A novel copper(II) thiocyanate complex [Cu(im)2(NCS) 2] 1(im = imidazole) has been prepared and characterized by spectroscopic analysis and crystallographic method. This supramolecular compound exhibits a three-dimensional solid state structure constituted by N-H‰S hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking interactions. The compound in DMF solutions has a very strong third-order non-linear optical (NLO) behavior with absorption coefficient and refractive index α2 = 1.18 × 10-11 m × w-1, n2 = - 9.00 × 10-16 m2 w-1, respectively, and third-order NLO susceptibility χ(3) of 7.00 × 10 -10 esu.
