Abstract

Organic single crystals of 2‐methyl‐4‐nitroaniline (MNA) up to 3 mm in diameter and 20 mm in length have been successfully grown by the Bridgman method using the purified reagent by sublimation. The crystals are transparent and yellow in colour by controlling the growth conditions. In the spectra of yellow coloured crystals no absorption peak is observed until about 450 nm. Also, the crystals of MNA have the two cleavage planes (311) and (010).
