Three new chiral phthalimides have been synthesized and characterized. Phthalimides (1–3) possess an acentric structure as revealed by structural investigation. Compounds 1 and 2 crystallize in an orthorhombic system with the space group P212121, however the monoclinic system with the chiral space group P21 is observed for 3. The presence of C–H⋯O hydrogen bonds in 1–3 facilitates the construction of several supramolecular structures. Helical structural motifs are also observed. The maximum value of hyperpolarizability (β), 159.9446 × 10−30 esu calculated for compound 3 is several times greater than that of urea. On the other hand 1 and 2 have hyperpolarizabilities of 10.8063 × 10−30 and 121.9519 × 10−30 esu, respectively. The polycrystalline samples of 1–3 were assessed for a second-harmonic generation response, which was found to be 8.8, 10.2 and 9.7 mV respectively. Further, compounds 1–3 showed d33 values of 0.93, 1.97 and 1.88 pC N−1 respectively. The present investigation demonstrates chiral phthalimides as effective contenders for nonlinear optical and piezoelectric properties.

尿素的几倍。另一方面,1 和 2 的超极化率分别为 10.8063 × 10−30 和 121.9519 × 10−30 esu。对 1-3 的多晶样品的二次谐波产生响应进行了评估,结果分别为 8.8、10.2 和 9.7 mV。此外,化合物 1-3 的 d33 值分别为 0.93、1.97 和 1.88 pC N−1。目前的研究表明手性邻苯二甲
酰亚胺是非线性光学和压电特性的有效竞争者。
