Salts of aromatic amines: Crystal structures, spectroscopic and non-linear optical properties

Crystal structures, spectroscopic and NLO properties of 8 novel organic salts with aromatic amines, i.e. tyrammonium iodide (1), tyrammonium benzene-1,2,4-tricarboxilate (2), octopammonium 5-sulfosalicylate monohydrate (3), octopammonium hydrogen squarate (4), dopammonium 5-sulfosalicylate dihydrate (5), ephedrinium mandelate (6), dopammonium hydrogen squarate (7) and bis(ephedrinium) squarate (8) are reported and discussed with a view of their application in optical technologies. The conformations of the cations of the aromatic amines are discussed comparing the experimental and theoretical data.
