A new SHG material, Ba3[Al(PO4)3], has been rationally designed by expanding the anionic condensation design strategy from atom-sharing to anionic-group-sharing. As the first Ba3[B(PO4)3]-type acentric phosphate, Ba3[Al(PO4)3] is characterized with...

Utilization of organic single crystal materials is increasing day by day owing to their promising applications in organic light emitting diodes [1], organic solar cells, mechanochromic luminescence [2] and tablatability [3] of APIs etc. These desirable functions, especially mechanical properties, can be achieved by imparting soft nature in organic materials, however unfortunately there is no simple strategy to attain this. Till date all the findings are serendipitous discoveries, so a rational design strategy is necessary to accomplish such soft mechanical behavior in molecular crystals. Here we propose a design strategy to attain plastically deformable organic materials by introducing slip planes in the crystal structures. The high plasticity can be achieved by introducing hydrophobic groups, such as t-Bu, -OMe, -Me and multiple –Cl (or) –Br groups on -Ar building blocks, for example on naphthalene diimide (NDI), which leads to the formation of slip planes in the crystal structures (as shown in attached figure), hence facilitate the plastic (irreversible) bending [2].

<p>Intelligent stimulus-response (S/R) systems are the basis of natural process and machine control, and have been intensively explored in biomimetic design, analytical chemistry and biological applications. However, nonmonotonic multi-S/R systems are still rarely studied so far. Now, we propose a rational design strategy to achieve such a unique S/R system by integrating opposite luminescence behaviors in one molecule. When solvent polarity increases, many heterocycles often become more emissive due to the suppression of the proximity effect. However, molecules with donor-acceptor (D-A) structures tend to be less emissive because of the twisted intramolecular charge transfer. Meanwhile, protonation on D/A moieties will weaken/strengthen the D-A interaction to result in blue/red-shifted emissions. By combining a protonatable heterocyclic acceptor and a protonatable donor together in one molecule, we can easily achieve nonmonotonic brightness responses to polarity stimuli and nonmonotonic color responses to pH stimuli. In this work, a simple molecule, namely ASQ is chosen as the model compound to verify the design strategy feasibility. It successfully shows two opposite trends of responses to polarity and pH stimuli, and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) with a nonmonotonic AIE curve. Moreover, the acidified ASQ solution is also a pure organic up-conversion and white-light-emitting system. A new mechanistic viewpoint is established to explain its unique anti-Stokes emission. Besides, ASQ shows multivalent functionalities including albumin protein sensing, ratiometric pH sensing, and amine gas sensing, etc. Therefore, ASQ is proved to be a fundamentally important and versatile functional “intelligent” AIE luminogen with nonmonotonic multi-responses to multi-stimuli. <br></p>
