Three thiophenyl chalcone derivatives, (E)-1-(5-bromo-2-thienyl)-3-(4-bromophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (B5B2SC), (E)-1-(5-bromo-2-thienyl)-3-(3-chlorophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (3C5B2SC), and (E)-1-(5-bromo-2-thienyl)-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (2M5B2SC), were successfully synthesized and crystallized. The structures were confirmed by experimental and theoretical FTIR and H-1 NMR spectra. The crystal structures were determined by single-crystal XRD method. The B5B2SC, 3C5B2SC and 2M5B2SC crystallize in the monoclinic space groups P2(1)/c (centrosymmetric), P2 (non-centrosymmetric) and triclinic space group P (1) over bar (centrosymmetric), respectively. All these structures adopt trans configuration with respect to C6&tnqh_02550C7 double bond. The chalcones have high thermal stability, a wide transparency in the visible region and small optical band gaps. The 3C5B2SC exhibits powder second-harmonic generation (SHG) intensity of about 1.7 times higher than Urea. From continuous wave (CW) laser (532 nm) Z-scan experimental data analyses, the third-order NLO parameters such as nonlinear absorption coefficient (beta = similar to 10(-4) cm/W), nonlinear refractive index (n(2) = similar to 10(-9) cm(2)/W), third-order NLO susceptibility (chi((3)) = similar to 10(-7) esu), molecular hyperpolarizability (gamma(h) = similar to 10(-27) esu), ground state absorption cross section (sigma(g) = similar to 10(-22) cm(2)) and excited state cross sections (sigma(ex) = similar to 10(-20) cm(2)) were determined. The chalcones also exhibited optical limiting and all optical switching behaviour for CW laser operating at 532 nm wavelengths. The electric dipole moment, polarizability, hyperpolarizabilty, HOMO-LUMO energy gap, global chemical reactivity descriptors (GCRD), molecular electrostatic potentials (MEP) and natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis were computed theoretically (DFT). The results indicate that these three chalcones with thiophene moiety are potential materials for optical device applications.
