Abstract
Stimulus-responsive polymer materials are an attractive alternative to conventional supramolecular and polymer assemblies for applications in sensing, imaging, and drug-delivery systems. Herein, we synthesized a series of pyrene-labeled α- and ε-poly-l-lysine conjugates with varying degrees of substitution (DSs). Hydrostatic-pressure-UV/vis, fluorescence, and excitation spectroscopies and fluorescence lifetime measurements revealed ground-state conformers and excited-state ensembles emitting fluorescence with variable intensities. The polylysine-based chemosensors demonstrated diverse ratiometric responses to hydrostatic pressure through adjustments in polar solvents, DSs, and polymer backbones. Additionally, the fluorescence chemosensor exhibited a promising glum value of 3.2 × 10-3, indicating potential applications in chiral fluorescent materials. This study offers valuable insights into the development of smart hydrostatic-pressure-responsive polymer materials.

Abstract
ConspectusPressure (P), as one of the most inherent state quantities, has become an academic subject of study and has attracted attention for a long time for the minute control of reaction equilibria and rates, not only in the gas phase, based on the gas state equation, but also in the solution state. In the latter case, the pressure applied to the solutions is classified as hydrostatic pressure, which is a type of isotropic mechanical force. For instance, deep-sea organisms are exposed to hydrostatic pressure environments of up to 100 MPa, implying that hydrostatic pressurization plays a role in homeostatic functions at physiological levels. The pressure control of such complicated biological behavior can be addressed by thermodynamics or kinetics. In fact, the spontaneity (ΔG) of a reaction that is governed by weak interactions (approximately 10 kcal/mol), such as electrostatic, van der Waals, hydrophobic, hydrogen bonding, and π-π stacking, is determined by the exquisite balance of enthalpy (ΔH) and entropy changes (ΔS), in accordance with the fundamental thermodynamic equation ΔG = ΔH - TΔS. The mutually correlated ΔH-ΔS relationship is known as the enthalpy-entropy compensation law, in which a more negative enthalpic change (more exothermic) causes further entropic loss based on a more negative entropy change. Namely, changing the temperature (T) as the state quantity, except for P, is highly likely to be equal to controlling the entropy term. The solution-state entropy term is relatively vague, mainly based on solvation, and thus unpredictable, even using high-cost quantum mechanical calculations because of the vast number of solvation molecules. Hence, such entropy control is not always feasible and must be demonstrated on a trial-and-error basis. Furthermore, the above-mentioned equation can be rearranged as ΔG = ΔF + PΔV, enabling us to control solution-state reactions by simply changing P as hydrostatic pressure based on the volume change (ΔV). The volume term is strongly relevant to conformational changes, solvation changes, and molecular recognition upon complexation and thus is relatively predictable, that is, volumetrically compact or not, compared to the complicated entropy term. These extrathermodynamic and kinetic observations prompted us to use hydrostatic pressure as a controlling factor over a long period. Hydrostatic pressure chemistry in the solution phase has developed over the past six decades and then converged and passed the fields of mechanochemistry and mechanobiology, which are new but challenging and current hot topics in multidisciplinary science. In this Account, we fully summarize our achievements in solution-state hydrostatic pressure chemistry for smart/functional molecular, supramolecular, polymer, and biological systems. We hope that the phenomena, mechanistic outcomes, and methodologies that we introduced herein for hydrostatic-pressure-controlling dynamics can provide guidance for both theoretical and experimental chemists working in supramolecular and (bio)macromolecular chemistry, mechanoscience, materials science, and technology.

Abstract
One of the helical anthracenes, [4]HA, in which two fused anthracene ends are spatially arranged top and bottom, exhibits a ratiometric fluorescence response due to the hydrostatic pressure-dependent intramolecular [4+4] photocyclodimerization. This ratiometric signalling comes from the formation of an intramolecular stacked species and its subsequent photoreaction upon hydrostatic pressurization. The ratiometric indexes as a function of hydrostatic pressure may enable us to quantify an unknown pressure in solutions.

Abstract
Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) is a widely used method for structural characterization. Generally, low temperature is of great significance for improving the crystallographic diffraction quality. Herein we observe that this practice is not always effective for flexible metal-organic frameworks (f-MOFs). An abnormal crystallography, that is, more diffraction spots at a high angle and better resolution of diffraction data as the temperature increases in the f-MOF (1-g), is observed. XRD results reveal that 1-g has a reversible anisotropic thermal expansion behavior with a record-high c-axial positive expansion coefficient of 1,401.8 × 10-6 K-1. Calculation results indicate that the framework of 1-g has a more stable thermodynamic configuration as the temperature increases. Such configuration has lower-frequency vibration and may play a key role in promoting higher Bragg diffraction quality at room temperature. This work is of great significance for how to obtain high-quality SCXRD diffraction data.

Abstract
Hydrostatically pressurized spectroscopic and lifetime decay analyses of optically active perylene bisimides were demonstrated in the pressure range of 0.1-320 MPa to show a π-stacked aggregation. The hydrostatic pressure-induced excitation and circular dichroism spectral changes of the fluorescence perylene dye enabled us to differentiate the slight pressure-sensitive aggregates. This work will lead to a new strategy for creating a pressure-responsive supramolecular polymerization material.

Abstract
The diamond-anvil cell (DAC) was invented 60 years ago, ushering in a new era for material sciences, extending research into the dimension of pressure. Most structural determinations and chemical research have been conducted at ambient pressure, i.e. the atmospheric pressure on Earth. However, modern experimental techniques are capable of generating pressure and temperature higher than those at the centre of Earth. Such extreme conditions can be used for obtaining unprecedented chemical compounds, but, most importantly, all fundamental phenomena can be viewed and understood from a broader perspective. This knowledge, in turn, is necessary for designing new generations of materials and applications, for example in the pharmaceutical industry or for obtaining super-hard materials. The high-pressure chambers in the DAC are already used for a considerable variety of experiments, such as chemical reactions, crystallizations, measurements of electric, dielectric and magnetic properties, transformations of biological materials as well as experiments on living tissue. Undoubtedly, more applications involving elevated pressure will follow. High-pressure methods become increasingly attractive, because they can reduce the sample volume and compress the intermolecular contacts to values unattainable by other methods, many times stronger than at low temperature. The compressed materials reveal new information about intermolecular interactions and new phases of single- and multi-component compounds can be obtained. At the same time, high-pressure techniques, and particularly those of X-ray diffraction using the DAC, have been considerably improved and many innovative developments implemented. Increasingly more equipment of in-house laboratories, as well as the instrumentation of beamlines at synchrotrons and thermal neutron sources are dedicated to high-pressure research.

Abstract
![]()
The design of solid-state materials whose properties and functions
can be manipulated in a controlled manner by the application of light
is an important objective in modern materials chemistry. When the
material changes property or function, it is helpful if a simple measurable
response, such as a change in color, can be detected. Potential applications
for such materials are wide ranging, from data storage to smart windows.
With the growing emphasis on solid-state materials that have two or
more accessible energy states and which exhibit bistability, attention
has turned to transition metal complexes that contain ambidentate
ligands that can switch between linkage isomeric forms when activated
by light. Suitable ligands that show promise in this area include
nitrosyls, nitro groups, and coordinated sulfur dioxide molecules,
each of which can coordinate to a metal center in more than one bonding
mode. A nitrosyl normally coordinates through its N atom (η1-NO) but when photoactivated can undergo isomerism and coordinate
through its O atom (η1-ON). At a molecular level,
converting between these two configurations can act as an “on/off”
switch. The analysis of such materials has been aided by the development
of photocrystallographic techniques, which allow the full three-dimensional
structure of a single crystal of a complex, under photoactivation,
to be determined, when it is in either a metastable or short-lived
excited state. The technique effectively brings the dimension of “time”
to the crystallographic experiment and brings us closer to being able
to watch solid-state processes occur in real time. In this Account,
we highlight the advances made in photocrystallography
for studying solid-state, photoactivated linkage isomerism and describe
the factors that favor the switching process and which allow complete
switching between isomers. We demonstrate that control of temperature
is key to achieving either a metastable state or an excited state
with a specific lifetime. We draw our conclusions from published work
on the formation of photoactivated metastable states for nitrosyl
and sulfur dioxide complexes and from our own work on photoactivated
switching between nitro and nitrito groups. We show that efficient
switching between isomers is dependent on the wavelength of light
used, on the temperature at which the experiment is carried out, on
the flexibility of the crystal lattice, and on both the electronic
and steric environment of the ambidentate ligand undergoing isomerism.
We have designed and prepared a number of nitro/nitrito isomeric metal
complexes that undergo reversible 100% conversion between the two
forms at temperatures close to room temperature. Through our fine
control over the generation of the metastable states, it should be
possible to effectively “dial up” a suitable temperature
to give a metastable or an excited state with a desired lifetime.

Abstract
A set of flapping acene dimers fused with an 8π cyclooctatetraene (COT) ring showed distinct excited-state dynamics in solution. While the anthracene dimer showed a fast V-shaped-to-planar conformational change within 10 ps in the lowest excited singlet state, reminding us of extended Baird aromaticity, the tetracene dimer and the pentacene dimer underwent intramolecular singlet fission (SF) in different manners: A fast and reversible SF with a characteristic delayed fluorescence (FL), and a fast and quantitative SF, respectively. Conformational flexibility of the fused COT linkage plays an important role in these ultrafast dynamics, demonstrating the utility of the flapping molecular series as a versatile platform for designing photofunctional systems.

Hexacoordinated nitrogen(V) stabilized by high pressure. Sci Rep 2016; 6:36049.

Abstract
In all of its known connections nitrogen retains a valence shell electron count of eight therefore satisfying the golden rule of chemistry - the octet rule. Despite the diversity of nitrogen chemistry (with oxidation states ranging from + 5 to −3), and despite numerous efforts, compounds containing nitrogen with a higher electron count (hypervalent nitrogen) remain elusive and are yet to be synthesized. One possible route leading to nitrogen’s hypervalency is the formation of a chemical moiety containing pentavalent nitrogen atoms coordinated by more than four substituents. Here, we present theoretical evidence that a salt containing hexacoordinated nitrogen(V), in the form of an NF6− anion, could be synthesized at a modest pressure of 40 GPa (=400 kbar) via spontaneous oxidation of NF3 by F2. Our results indicate that the synthesis of a new class of compounds containing hypervalent nitrogen is within reach of current high-pressure experimental techniques.

Abstract
In the last few decades, supramolecular chemistry has been at the forefront of chemical research, with the aim of understanding chemistry beyond the covalent bond. Since the long-range periodicity in crystals is a product of the directionally specific short-range intermolecular interactions that are responsible for molecular assembly, analysis of crystalline solids provides a primary means to investigate intermolecular interactions and recognition phenomena. This article discusses some areas of contemporary research involving supramolecular interactions in the solid state. The topics covered are: (1) an overview and historical review of halogen bonding; (2) exploring non-ambient conditions to investigate intermolecular interactions in crystals; (3) the role of intermolecular interactions in morphotropy, being the link between isostructurality and polymorphism; (4) strategic realisation of kinetic coordination polymers by exploiting multi-interactive linker molecules. The discussion touches upon many of the prerequisites for controlled preparation and characterization of crystalline materials.

Abstract
The crystal structures of N-methyl derivatives of the simplest amino acid glycine, namely sarcosine (C3H7NO2) and betaine (C5H11NO2), were studied upon cooling by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and single-crystal polarized Raman spectroscopy. The effects of decreasing temperature and increasing hydrostatic pressure on the crystal structures were compared. In particular, we have studied the behavior upon cooling of those structural motifs in the crystals, which are involved in structural rearrangement during pressure-induced phase transitions. In contrast to their high sensitivity to hydrostatic compression, the crystals of both sarcosine and betaine are stable to cooling down to 5 K. Similarly to most α-amino acids, the crystal structures of the two compounds are most rigid upon cooling in the direction of the main structural motif, namely head-to-tail chains (linked via the strongest N-H···O hydrogen bonds and dipole-dipole interactions in the case of sarcosine, or exclusively by dipole-dipole interactions in the case of betaine). The anisotropy of linear strain in betaine does not differ much upon cooling and on hydrostatic compression, whereas this is not the case for sarcosine. Although the interactions between certain structural motifs in sarcosine and betaine weaken as a result of phase transitions induced by pressure, the same interactions strengthen when volume reduction results from cooling.

Abstract
As part of a project to implement in-house time-resolved diffraction of short-lifetime species, a fast shutter with a custom-designed enclosure has been installed. The device is suitable for generation of X-ray pulses with time lengths down to about 5 µs. The design does not require major modifications to commercially available diffractometer setups. Significant airflow, generated by the rotating chopper disc, which interferes with temperature control at the sample, has been eliminated by a compact enclosure, which does not interfere with sample monitoring and conditioning devices. It allows for full rotation of the diffractometer circles.
