Abstract
Smart materials based on stimuli-fluorochromic π-conjugated solids (SFCSs) have aroused significant interest due to their versatile and exciting properties, leading to advanced applications. In this review, we highlight the recent developments in SFCS-based smart materials, expanding beyond organometallic compounds and light-responsive organic luminescent materials, with a discussion on the design strategies, exciting properties and stimuli-fluorochromic mechanisms along with their potential applications in the exciting fields of encryption, sensors, data storage, display, green printing, etc. The review comprehensively covers single-component and multi-component SFCSs as well as their stimuli-fluorochromic behaviors under external stimuli. We also provide insights into current achievements, limitations, and major challenges as well as future opportunities, aiming to inspire further investigation in this field in the near future. We expect this review to inspire more innovative research on SFCSs and their advanced applications so as to promote further development of smart materials and devices.

Abstract
Structural and functional modulation of three-dimensional artificial macromolecular systems is of immense importance. Designing supramolecular cages that can show stimuli mediated reversible switching between higher-order structures is quite challenging. We report here construction of a Pd6 trifacial barrel (1) by coordination self-assembly. Surprisingly, barrel 1 was found to exhibit guest-responsive behavior. In presence of fullerenes C60 and C70, 1 unprecedentedly transformed to its metastable higher homologue Pd8 tetrafacial barrel (2), forming stable host-guest complexes (C60)3⊂2 and (C70)2⊂2, respectively. Again, encapsulated fullerenes could be extracted from the cavity of 2 using 1,2-dichlorobenzene, leading to its facile conversion to the parent trifacial barrel 1. Such reversible structural interconversion between an adaptable molecular barrel and its guest stabilized higher homologue is an uncommon observation.

Abstract
Vapochromic materials that exhibit color/luminescence changes induced by vapor exposure have attracted considerable attention. Herein, we report the grinding- and heating-induced ON-OFF switching of the vapochromic behavior of [Pt(ppyCl2)(Clacac)] (1; ppyCl2 = 2-(3-chlorophenyl)-4-chloropyridinato, Clacac = 3-chloroacetylacetonato). 1 formed yellow and orange polymorphs (1-Y and 1-O), and 1-Y could be converted to 1-Og, which showed a very similar crystal structure but with a broadened X-ray diffraction pattern compared with that of 1-O. Moreover, 1-Og can be reversibly transformed into 1-O via heating and grinding. Notably, 1-Og underwent a N,N-dimethylacetamide vapor-induced transformation to 1-Y, whereas 1-O did not undergo such a transformation. These results indicate the ON-OFF switching of vapochromic behavior induced via grinding and heating. This finding will be beneficial for developing intelligent molecular devices.

Abstract
Fluorescent organic dyes play an essential role in the creation of new "smart" materials. Fragments and functional groups capable of free rotation around single bonds can significantly change the fluorescent organic dye's electronic structure under analyte effects, phase state transitions, or changes in temperature, pressure, and media polarity. Dependencies between steric and electronic structures become highly important in transition from a solution to a solid-state. Such transitions are accompanied by a significant increase in the dye molecular structure's rigidity due to supramolecular associates' formation such as H-bonding, π···π and dipole-dipole interactions. Among those supramolecular effects, H-bonding interactions, first of all, lead to significant molecular packing changes between loose or rigid structures, thus affecting the fluorescent dye's electronic states' energy and configuration, its fluorescent signal's position and intensity. All the functional groups and heteroatoms that are met in the organic dyes seem to be involved in the control of fluorescence via H-bonding: C-H···N, C-H···π, S = O···H-C, P = O···H, C-H···O, NH···N, C - H···C, C - H···Se, N-H···O, C - H···F, C-F···H. Effects of molecular packing of fluorescent organic dyes are successfully used in developing mechano-, piezo-, thermo- fluorochromes materials for their applications in the optical recording of information, sensors, security items, memory elements, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) technologies.

Abstract
A range of bis-triazolylchalcogenium-BTD 3 was synthesized by a copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition of azido arylchalcogenides 1 and 4,7-diethynylbenzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole 2. Eight new compounds were obtained in moderate to good yields using 1 mol % of copper(II) acetate monohydrate under mild reaction conditions. In addition, the synthesized bis-triazolylchalcogenium-BTD 3a-3h were investigated regarding their photophysical, electrochemical, and biomolecule binding properties in solution. In general, compounds presented strong absorption bands at the 250-450 nm region and cyan to green emission properties. The redox process attributed to the chalcogen atom was observed by electrochemical analysis (CV techniques). In addition, spectroscopic studies by UV-vis, steady-state emission fluorescence, and molecular docking calculations evidenced the ability of each derivative to establish interactions with calf-thymus DNA (CT-DNA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA). The behavior presented for this new class of compounds makes them a promising tool as optical sensors for biomolecules.

Abstract
Multifunctionality is a desirable aspect in materials science. Indeed, the development of multifunctional compounds is crucial for sustainable chemistry by saving resources and time. In this sense, 2H-benzo[d]1,2,3-triazole (BTz) is an excellent candidate with promising characteristics, including its ability to self-assemble; its acceptor character, which enables the synthesis of donor-acceptor structures; and its facile modulation using standard chemical methods. Thus, due to its interesting properties, it is possible to produce different derivatives with applications in different fields, as summarized in this article, with the correct substitution at the BTz cores. Optoelectronic or biomedical applications, amongst others, are highlighted.

Stimuli-Sensitive Aggregation-Induced Emission of Organogelators Containing Mesogenic Au(I) Complexes. CRYSTALS 2020.

Abstract
As the luminescence from conventional organic luminophores is typically quenched in constrained environments, the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) phenomenon is of interest for the development of materials that exhibit strong luminescence in condensed phases. Herein, new bismesogenic Au complexes were developed as organogelators and their photophysical properties, including their AIE characteristics, were investigated in organogels and crystals. The crystals of the gold complexes exhibited room-temperature phosphorescence with relatively high quantum yields. Moreover, the gold complexes also showed photoluminescence in the organogels and we demonstrated that the reversible switching of the luminescence intensity was induced by the sol-gel phase transition. The intense photoluminescence in the crystal and gel was induced by the restricted internal motion of the luminophore in the molecular aggregates. However, in the sol, the network structure of the organogel was destroyed and the nonradiative deactivation of the excited states was enhanced. As a result, we can conclude that the switching of the luminescence intensity was induced by changes in the aggregated structures of the molecules. The developed Au-complex-based gelators are excellent candidates for the realization of stimuli-responsive soft and smart luminescent materials.

Abstract
A new rod-shaped benzothiadiazole fluorophore, namely, 4,7-di-(4-nonylphenyl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole, which strongly emits fluorescence both in solution and in solid state has been synthesized, and its photophysical properties were rationalized with the help of density functional theory calculations. This molecule crystallizes in two distinct light-emitting crystalline phases, which can be interconverted in response to pressure, temperature, and solvent vapors. Powder X-ray diffraction indicates that in both polymorph, molecules adopt a lamellar packing, the different interlayer spacing being the main difference between the two structures. Single-crystal analysis of one of the polymorphs allows us to identify weak interaction planes, which presumably facilitates the polymorphic transformation through mechanically or thermally induced sliding processes. The polymorphic transformation and the origin of the switchable fluorescence have been rationalized through a spectroscopic and theoretical study. This study suggests that the different colors observed are due to different intermolecular aromatic interactions owing to the displacement of the molecules with respect to the layer normal. Interestingly, blending this molecule with a biodegradable polymer such as poly(vinyl alcohol) gives rise to a thermally activated reversible switchable fluorescent system, which entitles this material as an attractive candidate for technological applications, such as thermal sensors, security inks, or rewritable paper.

Abstract
Vapochromic materials, which undergo colour and/or emission changes upon exposure to certain vapours or gases, have received increasing attention recently because of their wide range of applications in, e.g., chemical sensors, light-emitting diodes, and environmental monitors. Vapochromic crystals, as a specific kind of vapochromic materials, can be investigated from the perspective of crystal engineering to understand the mechanism of vapochromism. Moreover, understanding the vapochromism mechanism will be beneficial to design and prepare task-specific vapochromic crystals as one kind of low-cost 'electronic nose' to detect toxic gases or volatile organic compounds. This review provides important information in a broad scientific context to develop new vapochromic materials, which covers organometallic or coordination complexes and organic crystals, as well as the different mechanisms of the related vapochromic behaviour. In addition, recent examples of supramolecular vapochromic crystals and metal-organic-framework (MOFs) vapochromic crystals are introduced.

Abstract
Configuration-controllable E/Z isomers based on tetraphenylethene were prepared with a facile and effective method. First, compounds 1 and 2, configuration-controllable precursors of E/Z isomers, were synthesized. Then, pure E/Z isomers were obtained via Suzuki reaction, avoiding the difficulties of separation. The conformational changes of E/Z isomers can occur through photoactivation. Importantly, red-shifts of 66 nm from 6 (E-) to 3 (Z-) and 58 nm from 7 (E-) to 4 (Z-) were observed remarkably on the photoluminescence (PL) emission spectra. The Z isomer showed a longer fluorescence lifetime compared with the E isomer. The Z isomers 3 and 4 exhibited piezofluorochromism under grinding, whereas the E isomers 6 and 7 showed no such behaviors. The E isomer has better thermal stability than the Z isomer. Lastly, graphene-like molecules were synthesized with the FeCl3/CH3NO2 system. The E and Z isomers after oxidation showed negligible differences in the PL emission spectra because the effective conjugated lengths of oxidized E and Z isomers were both extended. Furthermore, the fabricated field-effect transistors showed nice performance with mobilities of 0.92 and 1.14 cm-2 V-1 s-1 at low operating voltages, respectively.

Abstract
In the present investigation, an intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) and aggregation induced emission enhancement (AIEE) active donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) system 5 having fumaronitrile as the acceptor and hexaphenylbenzene (HPB) as the donor moieties joined through rotatable phenyl rings has been designed and synthesized that is highly emissive in the solid state and exhibits stimuli-responsive reversible piezochromic behavior upon grinding and heating. Because of its AIEE characteristics, HPB derivative 5 undergoes aggregation to form fluorescent aggregates in mixed aqueous media that exhibit ratiometric fluorescence response toward aliphatic amines (primary/secondary/tertiary) and turn-off response toward aromatic amines and hence differentiates between them. Further, the solution-coated portable paper strips of derivative 5 showed pronounced and sensitive response toward aromatic and aliphatic amines with a detection limit in the range of picogram and nanogram level, respectively.

Abstract
In the specific context of condensed media, the significant and increasing recent interest in the α-cyanostilbene (CS) motif [ArCHC(CN)Ar] is relevant. These compounds have shown remarkable optical features in addition to interesting electrical properties, and hence they are recognized as very suitable and versatile options for the development of functional materials. This progress report is focused on current and future use of CS structures and molecular assemblies with the aim of exploring and developing for the next generations of functional materials. A critical selection of illustrative materials that contain the CS motif, including relevant subfamilies such as the dicyanodistyrylbenzene and 2,3,3-triphenylacrylonitrile shows how, driven by the self-assembly of CS blocks, a variety of properties, effects, and possibilities for practical applications can be offered to the scientific community, through different rational routes for the elaboration of advanced materials. A survey is provided on the research efforts directed toward promoting the self-assembly of the solid state (polycrystalline solids, thin films, and single crystals), liquid crystals, nanostructures, and gels with multistimuli responsiveness, and applications for sensors, organic light-emitting diodes, organic field effect transistors, organic lasers, solar cells, or bioimaging purposes.

Abstract
Advances in the field of supramolecular chemistry have made it possible, in many situations, to reliably engineer soft materials to address a specific technological problem. Particularly exciting are "smart" gels that undergo reversible physical changes on exposure to remote, non-invasive environmental stimuli. This review explores the development of gels which are transformed by heat, light and ultrasound, as well as other mechanical inputs, applied voltages and magnetic fields. Focusing on small-molecule gelators, but with reference to organic polymers and metal-organic systems, we examine how the structures of gelator assemblies influence the physical and chemical mechanisms leading to thermo-, photo- and mechano-switchable behaviour. In addition, we evaluate how the unique and versatile properties of smart materials may be exploited in a wide range of applications, including catalysis, crystal growth, ion sensing, drug delivery, data storage and biomaterial replacement.

Abstract
Compounds consisting of unsubstituted, monofluoro and difluoro substituted benzothiadiazole bonded to two tetraphenylethenes were successfully prepared by palladium catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of their corresponding co-monomers. All compounds exhibited aggregation-induced emission characteristics when the water fraction was higher than 60% in the THF/water mixtures. The emission maximum for the three compounds was blue-shifted when the water content reached 90% compared to that in THF solution. The intensity of emission maximum of difluorinated benzothiadiazole linked with two tetraphenylethenes was 2.5 times higher in 90% water compared to those in THF solution. Surprisingly, two liquid crystal phases with two distinct emission colors were observed only for the compound containing difluorinated benzothiadiazole bonded to two tetraphenylethene. All compounds showed remarkable solvatochromic properties in selected solvents with different polarities. The powder XRD results and mechanochromism of the compounds suggested that the solid state structures can change from one form to another by grinding, fuming or annealing processes. Fluorinated benzothiadiazole bonded to two tetraphenylethenes were synthesized. The compounds exhibited remarkable aggregation-induced emission, solvatochromism and mechanochromism.![]()

Abstract
The possibility to change the molecular assembled structures of organic and organometallic materials through mechanical stimulation is emerging as a general and powerful concept for the design of functional materials. In particular, the photophysical properties such as photoluminescence color, quantum yield, and emission lifetime of organic and organometallic fluorophores can significantly depend on the molecular packing, enabling the development of molecular materials with mechanoresponsive luminescence characteristics. Indeed, an increasing number of studies have shown in recent years that mechanical force can be utilized to change the molecular arrangement, and thereby the optical response, of luminescent molecular assemblies of π-conjugated organic or organometallic molecules. Here, the development of such mechanoresponsive luminescent (MRL) molecular assemblies consisting of organic or organometallic molecules is reviewed and emerging trends in this research field are summarized. After a brief introduction of mechanoresponsive luminescence observed in molecular assemblies, the concept of "luminescent molecular domino" is introduced, before molecular materials that show turn-on/off of photoluminescence in response to mechanical stimulation are reviewed. Mechanically stimulated multicolor changes and water-soluble MRL materials are also highlighted and approaches that combine the concept of MRL molecular assemblies with other materials types are presented in the last part of this progress report.

Abstract
A naphthalimide-based fluorescent gelator (N1) containing an alkenyl group has been designed and characterized. This material is able to gelate alcohols via a precipitate-to-gel transformation when triggered with ultrasound for less than 2 min (S-gel). The gelation process in n-propanol was studied by means of absorption, fluorescence, and IR spectra, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, and X-ray diffraction patterns. The fluorescence intensity of N1 decreased during the gelation process in a linear relationship with the sonication time. The S-gel of N1 could be used to sense aliphatic and aromatic amines by measuring the change in the signal output. For example, the addition of propylamine to the S-gel of N1 resulted in a dramatic enhancement of the fluorescence intensity, accompanied by a gel-to-sol transition. On the contrary, when the S-gel of N1 was treated with aromatic amines such as aniline, fluorescence was quenched and there was no gel collapse. The sensing mechanisms were studied by (1)H NMR, small-angle X-ray scattering, SEM and spectroscopic experiments. It is proposed that isomerization of the alkenyl group of N1 from the trans to cis form occurs when the S-gel is treated with propylamine, resulting in a gel-sol transition. However, the aromatic aniline molecules prefer to insert into the gel networks of N1 via hydrogen-bonding and charge-transfer interactions, maintaining the gel state. As potential applications, testing strips of N1 were prepared to detect aniline.

Abstract
Supramolecular gels are one kind of important soft material, in which small low-molecular weight compounds self-assemble into various nanostructures through non-covalent interactions to immobilize the solvents. While there are many important fundamental issues related to the gelation process, such as the design of the gelator, synergism of various non-covalent interactions between gelators, gelator-solvents, the balances between gelation and crystallization and so on, the self-assembled nanostructures forming during gelation are very interesting. These nanostructures have many unique features, such as the flexibility to respond to external stimuli, morphological diversity, ease of fabrication in large quantities, and so on. This review highlights some important features in tuning the nanostructures in the supramolecular gels from their morphological diversity, morphology control, morphology conversion, and morphology-depended functions.
