Achieving Remarkable Mechanochromism and White-Light Emission with Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence through the Molecular Heredity Principle [PDF]

, 2016
Achieving high contrast mechanochromism (Δλem,max > 100 nm) and white-light emission under mild conditions from a single compound with a simple structure is a great challenge.

A gold isocyanide complex with a pendant carboxy group: orthogonal molecular arrangements and hypsochromically shifted luminescent mechanochromism [PDF]

, 2018
The epistatic double hydrogen bonds that arise from the presence of a pendant carboxy group in a gold isocyanide complex result in strong aurophilic interactions in a magenta-emitting polymorph. This is due to the lack of the typically antiparallel dimer

The Impact of Chemical Modifications on the Photochromism of Spiropyran: A Roadmap to Navigate Powerful Photochromes

ChemPhotoChem, Volume 10, Issue 4, April 2026.
This review summarizes how even minor chemical modifications can be used to shape spiropyran photochromism. We highlight how substituents, strain, and heteroatoms tune absorption, stability, switching efficiency, and overall photochromic behaviour.

Record‐Low Compressibility in [N(C2H5)3CH3]FeCl4 Expands Phase Engineering Horizons in Hybrid Molecular Ferroelectrics

Small, Volume 22, Issue 23, 22 April 2026.
High‐pressure studies of the lead‐free hybrid organic–inorganic ferroelectric [N(C2H5)3CH3]FeCl4 demonstrate record low compressibility, establishing it as the least compressible molecular ferroelectric known. In situ diamond anvil cell experiments identify halide selection and inorganic sublattice tuning as key compressibility controls, advancing ...

Mechanofluorochromism (MFC) of Donor–π–Acceptor (D–π–A)‐Type Fluorescent Dyes

The Chemical Record, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2026.
Mechanofluorochromism (MFC) is a photophysical phenomenon that induces changes in fluorescent colors as well as colors of organic fluorescent dyes in the solid‐state by external mechanical stimuli. In this Personal Account, we offer an insight into the mechanism for the expression of MFC and present a direction in the molecular design toward creating D–
