title: Growth and characterization of a new organic single crystal: 1-(4-Nitrophenyl) pyrrolidine (4NPY).
abstract: A new 1-(4-Nitrophenyl) pyrrolidine single crystal has grown by slow evaporation solution growth technique. The grown crystal have characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis, and it shows that 1-(4-Nitrophenyl) pyrrolidine crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca, with cell parameters a=10.3270 (5)Å, b=9.9458 (6)Å, c=18.6934 (12)Å, and Z=8. Powder XRD pattern confirmed that grown crystal posses highly crystalline nature. The functional groups have identified by using FTIR spectral analysis. The absorbance and the luminescence spectra of the title compound have analyzed using UV-Visible and PL spectra. The thermo analytical properties of the crystal have studied using TG/DTA spectrum. The mechanical property of the grown crystal has determined using Vickers micro hardness measurement. The grown features of the crystal have analyzed using etching technique.
