Abstract
A single crystal composed of one-dimensional coordinated polymers, [CdCl2(1-methyl-2-pyridone)]n, has been synthesized and characterized. This compound exhibits outstanding elastic bending due to the molecular spring nature of the CdCl2 coordination framework and weak intermolecular interactions between the coordination chains. Owing to the helical arrangement of organic ligands surrounding the coordination structure, the compound crystallizes in a chiral space group. As a result, it displays compelling circular dichroism spectra and second harmonic generation properties.

Abstract
Multiple stimuli-responsive molecular crystals are attracting extensive attentions due to their potential as smart materials, such as molecular machines, actuators, and sensors. However, the task of giving a single crystal multiple stimuli-responsive properties remains extremely challenging. Herein, we found two polymorphs (Form O and Form R) of a Schiff base compound, which could respond to multiple stimuli (external force, acid, heat). Form O and Form R have different elastic deformability, which can be attributed to the differences in the molecular conformation, structural packing and intermolecular interactions. Moreover, both polymorphs exhibit reversible bending driven by volatile acid vapor, which we hypothesize is caused by reversible protonation reaction of imines with formic acid. In addition, jumping can be triggered by heating due to the significant anisotropic expansion. The integration of reversible bending and jumping into one single crystal expands the application scope of stimuli-responsive crystalline materials.

Abstract
Although, dynamic crystals are attractive for use in many technologies, molecular level mechanisms of various solid-state dynamic processes and their interdependence, remain poorly understood. Here, we report a rare example of a dynamic crystal (1), involving a heavy transition metal, rhenium, with an initial two-face elasticity (within ≈1 % strain), followed by elasto-plastic deformation, at room temperature. Further, these crystals transform to a rotator (plastic) crystal phase at ≈105 °C, displaying exceptional malleability. Qualitative and quantitative mechanical tests, X-ray diffraction, μ-Raman and polarized light microscopy experiments reveal that the elasto-plastic deformation involves both partial molecular rotations and slip, while malleability in the rotator phase is facilitated by reorientational motions and increased symmetry (slip planes). Our work, connecting the plastically bendable (1D or 2D) crystals with the rotator phases (3D), is important for designing multi-functional dynamic crystals.

Abstract
The single-metallic coordination networks (CNs), simultaneously exhibiting temperature-dependent lifetime (TDLT) and emission band shift (TDEBS), are desirable for application in luminescent thermometers with high accuracy and reliability in a large temperature range. Nonetheless, up to date, there are no reports on such kinds of materials due to the lack of in-depth understanding of the origin of TDLT and TDEBS at a molecule level, being critical for exploiting a universal approach to design a dual-parametric CN phosphorescent thermometer (CN-PT). Herein, we have constructed a thermoresponsive CN [Cu2(L1)Br2]∞ (IAM21-1, L1 = N1,N6-di(pyridin-3-yl)adipamide) via a flexible-ligand-implanted strategy. The TDLT and TDEBS properties of IAM21-1 enable it to be applied as a single-metallic dual-parametric CN-PT in 50-500 K, which is the widest temperature range reported so far. The combination of structure analysis and DFT calculations demonstrates that the redshift of the emission band upon the decreasing temperature originates from the reversible skeleton-shrinkage-triggered narrower band gap. This work has unveiled the origin of TDLT and TDEBS properties and proposed an efficient strategy for designing dual-parametric CN-PTs.
