Manganese tartrate and copper tartrate find various applications, for example, copper tartrate stimulates Luteinizing hormone in vitro and manganese tartrate as chemical temperature sensor. In the present study manganese-copper mixed levo tartrate crystals have been grown by single diffusion gel growth technique in Silica hydro gel. Different compositions of manganese-copper mixed levo tartrate crystals were obtained by varying the amount of MnCl2 and CuSO4 in supernatant solution. Purple blue colored prismatic crystals were grown and the coloration changed from light purple blue to dark purple blue on increasing copper content. From the EDAX the exact content of manganese and copper in crystals was determined. The crystals exhibited orthorhombic crystal structure and the unit cell parameters changed with the composition of manganese and copper in the crystals. The FTIR spectra suggested the presence of functional groups O-H, C=O, C-O and C-H in the samples. The absorption bands shifted slightly to higher wave numbers on increasing copper in crystals. The thermogravimatry indicated that on heating the crystals first became anhydrous and then decomposed to respective oxides. All the crystals were having different amount of water of hydration. The dielectric study was carried out at room temperature by varying the frequency of applied field from 500 Hz to 1 MHz. The variation of dielectric constant with frequency indicated that as the frequency increased the dielectric constant decreased. The variations of dielectric loss and a.c. conductivity with frequency of applied field were studied. Results are discussed.
