Abstract

•3A4MPQ have grown by slow evaporation solution growth technique.•The lattice parameters and morphology have identified by single crystal X-ray diffraction.•The cut-off wavelength has found to be 371 nm.•The melting point of the material is 156°C, and it is stable up to 228°C.•Micro hardness and etching studies have performed for the grown crystal.

A single crystal of 3-acetyl-2-methyl-4-phenylquinolin-1-ium chloride has grown by slow evaporation solution growth technique using ethanol as solvent. The structural, thermal, optical and mechanical property has studied for the grown crystal. Single crystal XRD revealed that the crystal belongs to monoclinic system with space group P21/c. The presences of Functional groups in the crystallized material have confirmed using the FTIR vibrational spectrum. The optical absorbance spectrum recorded from 190 to 1100 nm shows the cut-off wavelength occurs at 371 nm. The material shows its transparency in the entire region of the visible spectrum. The photoluminescence spectrum shows the ultraviolet and blue emission in the crystal. Thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis reveal the thermal stability of the grown crystal. Etching study shows the grown mechanism and surface features of the crystal. Vickers microhardness studies have carried out on the (01-1) plane to understand the mechanical properties of the grown crystal. The hardness of the title compound increases on increasing the load. The Meyer’s index number (n), and the stiffness constants for different loads has calculated and reported.
