Semi organic nonlinear optical crystal Morpholinium nitrate (MN) was synthesized and subsequently grown from the solution by slow evaporation method. The sample has been subjected to powder X-ray diffraction to identify the crystalline nature and the prominent peaks were indexed. The crystal belongs to the monoclinic system with a space group P2 1 /C. Carbon NMR analysis confirms the presence of carbon in the structure of the title compound. Dielectric studies have been carried out on the grown crystal as a function of frequencies at different temperatures. Dielectric constant, dielectric loss and AC conductivity were also calculated. © 2015 AIP Publishing LLC.
