Strong enhancement of second-harmonic generation (SHG) response through multi-chiral centers and metal-coordination

Abstract

The hydrothermal reaction of CdCl2 with L (L = trans-2,3-dihydro-2-(4′-pyridyl)-3-(3″-cyanophenyl)benzo[e]indole) in the presence of NaN3 and water offers a novel route to [Cd(L–N3)2(H2O)2]n (1), a 1D infinite molecular box with approximate dimensions 10.37 × 6.64 Å; 1 is shown to display a very strong SHG response that is 80 times that observed for urea.
