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

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
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–
