Abstract
Proton-electron-coupled reactions, specifically proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET), in biological and chemical processes have been extensively investigated for use in a wide variety of applications, including energy conversion and storage. However, the exploration of the functionalities of the conductivity, magnetism, and dielectrics by proton-electron coupling in molecular materials is challenging. Dynamic and static proton-electron-coupled functionalities are to be expected. This feature article highlights the recent progress in the development of functionalities of dynamic proton-electron coupling in molecular materials. Herein, single-unit conductivity by self-doping, quantum spin liquid state coupled with quantum fluctuation of protons, switching of conductivity and magnetism triggered by the disorder-order transition of deuterons, and their external responses under pressure and in the presence of an electric field are introduced. In addition, as for the functionalities of proton-d/π-electron coupling in metal dithiolene complexes, magnetic switching with multiple PCET and vapochromism induced by electron transfer through hydrogen-bond (H-bond) formation is introduced experimentally and theoretically. We also outlined the basic and applied issues and potential challenges for development of proton-electron-coupled molecular materials, functionalities, and devices.

Abstract
This review covers the compound class of one-dimensional gold strings. These compounds feature a formally infinite repetition of gold complexes as monomers/repeating units that are held together by aurophilic interactions, i.e. direct gold-gold contacts. Their molecular structures are primarily determined in the solid state using single crystal X-ray diffraction. The chemical composition of the employed gold complexes is diverse and furthermore plays a key role in terms of structure characteristics and the resulting properties. One of the most common features of gold strings is their photoluminescence upon UV excitation. The emission energy is often dependent on the distance of adjacent gold ions and the electronic structure of the whole string. In terms of gold strings, these parameters can be fine-tuned by external stimuli such as solvent, pH value, pressure or mechanical stress. This leads to direct structure-property correlations, not only with regard to the photophysical properties, but also electric conductivity for potential application in nanoelectronics. Concerning these correlations, gold strings, consisting of self-assembled individual complexes as building blocks, are the ideal compound class to look at, as perturbations by an inhomogeneity in the ligand sphere (such as the end of a molecule) can be neglected. Therefore, the aim of this review is to shed light on the past achievements and current developments in this area.

Abstract
The structures of three tetramethylammonium cyanocuprate(I) 3D networks [NMe4]2[Cu(CN)2]2•0.25H2O (1), [NMe4][Cu3(CN)4] (2), and [NMe4][Cu2(CN)3] (3), (Me4N = tetramethylammonium), and the photophysics of 1 and 2 are reported. These complexes are prepared by combining aqueous solutions of the simple salts tetramethylammonium chloride and potassium dicyanocuprate. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of complex 1 reveals {Cu2(CN)2(μ2-CN)4} rhomboids crosslinked by cyano ligands and D3h {Cu(CN)3} metal clusters into a 3D coordination polymer, while 2 features independent 2D layers of fused hexagonal {Cu8(CN)8} rings where two Cu(I) centers reside in a linear C∞v coordination sphere. Metallophilic interactions are observed in 1 as close Cu⋯Cu distances, but are noticeably absent in 2. Complex 3 is a simple honeycomb sheet composed of trigonal planar Cu(I) centers with no Cu…Cu interactions. Temperature and time-dependent luminescence of 1 and 2 have been performed between 298 K and 78 K and demonstrate that 1 is a dual singlet/triplet emitter at low temperatures while 2 is a triplet-only emitter. DFT and TD-DFT calculations were used to help interpret the experimental findings. Optical memory experiments show that 1 and 2 are both optical memory active. These complexes undergo a reduction of emission intensity upon laser irradiation at 255 nm although this loss is much faster in 2. The loss of emission intensity is reversible in both cases by applying heat to the sample. We propose a light-induced electron transfer mechanism for the optical memory behavior observed.
